Underscore in the lyrics can't be deleted by pressing the spacebar #24396

Open FrancRos31 opened 2 months ago

FrancRos31 commented 2 months ago

Issue type

UX/interaction

Description with steps to reproduce

  1. Create a score with a staff for the voice
  2. Add notes to the staff
  3. Select any note you want
  4. Press Ctrl + L to add lyrics
  5. Write a syllable then press Shift + - to create an underscore

Actual behaviour: the underscore appears but you can delete it only by pressing the hyphen key, not the spacebar. Expected behaviour: the underscore can be deleted pressing wheter the hyphen key or the spacebar.

As a clarification, the underscore is not meant to be like any character - it has a special function for creating lyrics extenders (e.g., for melisma). The way it is intended to remove the extender is to instead press Space or hyphen, to connect to the next note without the extender. Hyphen works, but for some reason Space does not. So, the bug more specifically is that pressing Space does not remove the extender. This is a regression vs MU3, but vs previous 4.x releases - same behavior going back to 4.0.
