Just been bit again by this issue. It seems that the instrumentation menu doesn't appear in Firefox (on Linux). It worked in google-chrome.

>You should be seeing a menu of instrumentation categories

But I don't. The instrumentation box isn't active.

Thanks Max.

Is there any way to search IMSLP to find scores generated by MusiXTeX and whose source files are available? To test software I've written, I need examples. (PMX-generated musixtex files are not suitable.)

The system insists that "instrumentation" must be submitted but refuses to allow you to submit instrumentation. I've had to submit ordinary scores and then edit the resulting page by hand.

I finally uploaded the score not as an arrangement and then edited the page by hand.

I've submitted a file PMLP254171-fughettas.pdf as an arrangement for the Work Page "A Collection of 7 Fughettas" by Handel. The system refuses to allow me to submit the description without an Arrangement Instrumentation but also refuses to allow me to enter anything in that field. I'm stuc...

On http://imslp.org/wiki/Overture_No.5_%28 ... William%29, I re-arranged the Hornpipe and Minuet for recorders and added them to the Allegro movement.
But I deleted references to the old files (in D) on the work page and now can't access the file pages to flag them as deletable.

Then how would I delete the old file?

Try to find a new name for the new file.

My second attempt to upload a revised file used a new file name. No difference.

There seems to be a bug in the treatment of file revisions. See the discussion here:

Christian: The problem isn't in the reversion, which was an unsuccessful attempt to provide the correct PDF. The problem seems to be a software bug. I presume someone somewhere is trying to pin this down. Could that be confirmed or do I have to report the issue to a system admin?

are you positive your latest new version of the file (26 Oct.) was exactly the same upload as the one from the 25th? No doubt Murphy's Law is applicable but I did check before and after uploading on the 26th. And I did that because the upload on the 25th didn't seem to be right. Yet now you say it ...

The Sept. 12, Oct. 25, and Oct. 26 versions all appear to be identical to me. Look for "a tempo" on the top left of the 3rd system. There's also an alternative (small} note in the bass-recorder part in measure 11. This is all in the file history Comments. The preview on the file page is r...

At http://imslp.org/wiki/Kinderszenen,_Op.15_%28Schumann,_Robert%29#For_4_Recorders_.28Tennent.29 , I've submitted a revised file with minor improvements. Access was blocked for a day, which I understand. But after, the file available is still the unrevised version. Thinking I uploaded the old versi...
