[Menvi-discuss] Saving XML files on MuseScore

[Jeanie Willis]

I should point out to all screen readers also that Marc’s name is spelt with a c not a k, which he also obviously takes no offense to when screen readers get it wrong, but I just happened to notice a while ago.

Hi!  The repeat symbols are found on the Repeats palette, so once you watch my video on adding markings <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRrT4WpE0PY>  in general, you'll know how to add repeats.

 

And don't worry about misspelling my name; I'm very used to it, and I would never expect anyone to figure it out just being a screen reader try to pronounce it!

 

Marc

Thank you, that did help. Appreciate it. The messure thing I was referring to, is how to type the repeat sign at the end of a messure. But found other videos from Mr. Mark. Sorry don't have his last name in front of me, and don't want to misspell his name. But found a lot more videos on MuseScore For Accessibility, that I'm hoping will help and answer my current and future questions. Thanks again.

Hi, I don't quite know what you mean by the measures thing, but in any notation program, you have to use the export function to get an XML, not save/save as. Save/save as is for saving in the notation program's native format. So to save in XML, in MuseScore (similarly in other programs as well), press alt+F to go to file menu, arrow down to export, and press enter. Tab over to the format combo box, press enter on it, and arrow up and down to get to MusicXML. Once you're there, press enter. Pressing right arrow will enable you to access another combo box to choose which MusicXML format you want to save in. Compressed MusicXML (.mxl) is the default, but you can switch it to uncompressed XML (.musicxml or .xml) if you want. It doesn't really matter which type of XML you save in. Some older programs don't recognize the .mxl compressed format, but Sao Mai, being a newer program, certainly does. Now, just save the file as any other. Hope this helps.

Hi, I am just starting to use MuseScore to write down some music lessons to then run through Sai Mao Braille to then review in braille. However, in order for me to do this, I need to save my files as XML files. But, when I go to "Save As," I don't have this option. Can someone please assist me on saving as XML files? Also, what is the key input to repeat? Either a messure or multiple messures? I am reviewing the YouTube videos of MuseScore Accessibility but haven't came across those 2 tip-bits. Thanks!
