Re: Disappearing dynamics

[Andrew Bernard]

Hi Carl,

Have not tried that idea.

The weird thing is that it's only dynamics that are affected. I thought it
might be some subtle font caching issue with the font I use, but I reverted
to lilypond default and the same occurs. Once the dynamic finally makes
itself visible, it stays.

This may remain forever an unsolved mystery. But it makes Frescobaldi
currently unusable for me, espcially as I am in the 'add dynamics' phase
that I do. I have several decades of UNIX software development experience,
and I have never seen anything resembling this. I promise I am not making
it up!
