metadata vs printed text in musicxml

[Leon Vinken]

All,

in order to properly distinguish metadata and printed text, I intend to
make the following changes:

Map all entries in the metadata dialog to their corresponding MusicXML
metadata elements:
work title <-> score-partwise/work/work-title
work number <-> score-partwise/work/work-number
movement title <-> score-partwise/movement-title
movement number <-> score-partwise/movement-number
source <-> score-partwise/identification/source
Add missing metadata fields to the metadata dialog (creator, rights)

Text (to be) printed in the header (title, composer, etc.) are MusicXML
credit elements. Note that these can contain formatting and layout
information.

Older files typically don't include MusicXML credit elements, which were
introduced with MusicXML 1.1. If no credit elements are present,
metadata also has to be copied to corresponding MuseScore texts.

As always, all suggestions are welcome.

Regards, Leon.

Very good! That is for import right?
For export, I guess : if metadata fields are empty, take the musescore text ones to fill musicXML metadata elements. Musescore texts will be saved in credit.

Looking forward to test this.

Importing/exporting meta-data and handling of credits is in as of r1720, please test, especially compatibility with other applications.

Notes:
- complicated things like multiple credit-word elements of font changes in texts are not supported yet, e.g. Recordare's BeetAnGeSample.xml is not imported correctly
- I don't have access to Finale, would like to know if Finale compatibility is OK

Regards, Leon.
