Low resolution of music notation rendering and playhead inaccuracy after orientation change (iPad)
planned
Hinrich Nagel
Hi Derek, please find the following links
where something curious happens, if I select the beats in landscape-mode and then after displaying the measures I turn my iPad (12,9“, model year 2023, newest iPadOS- and Beat-Note versions) to portrait-mode and start the playback of the measures, it looks and works normal for the moment. But when the display scrolls downward, the measures which are ‚new‘ on the screen looks a little bit thicker and fuzzy (please see attachment) and when the playback-cursor comes to these thicker notes the playback stutters and some notes are skipped.
This happens reproducibly only if I start in landscape-mode, if I start instantly in portrait-mode all is well.
Do you have any idea?

Hinrich Nagel Thanks again for reporting this! I'm trying to recreate this behavior and I can't seem to recreate it. Could you please take a screen capture showing the steps you're taking to recreate this issue?
Thank you! Best, Derek

Derek Lee I make a video with the screen-recoder of the iOS Control-Center, but I can‘t attached the file to this post because of the 8 MB limitation of the attachments. I will send it directly to your email adress.
The recording shows also one of the above download-beat-link in playback mode and you could see how ‚thicker notes‘ are skipped.
Hopefully this helps to recreate this behavior, otherwise let me know which specific parts are not clear and I can help with another video.

Thanks for notifying me of this behavior, Hinrich Nagel! This looks like a bug with the rendering of the music. I will try to recreate this on my iPad, and based on your description, I should be able to do this. Once I have recreated it, I can locate and fix the issue. Thanks!

Derek LeeGreat! Hopefully you find a solution without too much work.

Hinrich Nagel I think I have a solution that appears to be working. It's been a bit more finicky than anticipated, and took some time to figure out the cause. The fix will be included in the next release for you to verify. 👍🏻
