Same goes for hiding/unhiding instruments in a score with lots of instruments! Good catch.
We could go for a slightly less technical-sounding message:
Or—and adding this to my to-dos—we could have a more generic loading animation for actions that cause the "freeze". Perhaps a short accent-colored loading bar that spans the top of the canvas pane.
Note: We should update the Instruments UI immediately while the score is finishing processing
Your idea
It would be helpful to add a dialogue box that says "Recalculating Layout" while MuseScore is working on such a task
Problem to be solved
After dragging and dropping an instrument to re-order on a large score, it can take a while for the score to update and the user doesn't have any message, this can lead them to think there is a freeze.
Prior art
Something similar to this:
