Release notes for Mozart 17

The improvement history for Mozart 17
 

 

Mozart 17 version 17.0.3

August 2025

  • Thanks to Lindsay Lorden for reported a formatting ‘oddity’ when deleting space, and to Wayne Schmus for finding a related problem. This was happening at quite a deep level where it could have affected other operations, but is now fixed. [MZ17-2508-LYRICMAP][MZ17-2508-LEFTLIST]
  • Thanks to Clive Longhurst for finding a problem with spurious clefs being added, and then being difficult to delete. They are now easier to delete. [MZ17-2508-CLEF]
  • Thanks also to Clive for reporting problems changing trumpet MIDI voicing from unmuted to muted and back. This should now be fixed too. [MZ17-2508-CLEFINST]
  • In panoramic mode, the staff was sometimes being drawn too short at the right hand extremity. This is now fixed. [MZ17-2508-END]

Mozart 17 version 17.0.2

August 2025

  • In instrumental parts containing more than one stave, the staves were constrained to be in the same order vertically as in the score. This was not the objective and this unintentional constraint is now relaxed. [MZ17-2507-STAVEORDER]
  • MIDI file import has been improved for the case where a piece starting with an anacrusis also contains key- or time-signature-changes. (This combination allows a better educated guess as to where bar lines should go!) [MZ17-2507-MIDIANACRUSIS]
  • In some cases, copying two or more bars containing all strands, and then pasting at the end of the piece caused severe problems. We hadn’t found any such cases ourselves but thanks to Miriam Leman for finding one and providing it for analysis. This has enabled us to fix the problem. [MZ17-250?-PASTEBUG]

Mozart 17 version 17.0.1

June 2025

  • Thanks to Keith Long and Tony Caporn for reporting a failure of “auto-dotting”. This is now fixed. [MZ17-2506-AUTODOT]
  • Thanks to Tony Caporn for finding that courtesy accidentals were not being shown in parentheses when desired. This is now fixed. [MZ17-2506-PARENTHESES]
  • Thanks to Clive Lonhghurst for reporting poblems combining two staves into one. This is now also fixed. [MZ17-2506-STAVESCOMBINE]
  • A glitch drawing bar numbers in the neighbourhood of multiple bars rests has now been fixed. [MZ17-2506-BARNUMBER]
  • The tutorial file accompanying Mozart 17:the tutorial for Mozart 16 was inadvertently installed. This was an oversight. This is now replaced by the tutorial for Mozart 17 which introduces recent developments in the Score and Parts.
    [Note: In order to complete the update, it may be necessary to go to "Trouble shooting-Interface" on Mozart's Help tab and update using the "Refresh tutorial files" option.]
