In `@framework/interactive/internal/interactive.cpp`:
- Around line 361-372: Update the QFileDialog finished handler around
MacOSInteractiveHelper::NativeDialogScope so the captured scope is mutable and
reset at the handler’s start, restoring the menu delegation deterministically
when the dialog closes; preserve the existing non-Mac behavior and cleanup flow.
In `@framework/interactive/internal/platform/macos/macosinteractivehelper.h`:
- Around line 56-61: Make NativeDialogScope explicitly non-copyable and
non-movable by deleting its copy constructor, copy assignment operator, move
constructor, and move assignment operator, while preserving its existing
constructor and destructor behavior.
In `@framework/interactive/internal/platform/macos/macosinteractivehelper.mm`:
- Around line 264-282: Update both NSMenuDidBeginTrackingNotification and
NSMenuDidEndTrackingNotification observers in the s_menuObservers setup to use
s_editMenu instead of nil as their object filter, and call
applyScopeTransformations() directly in the begin-tracking block without
dispatch_async.
- Line 100: Move the standard library header declaration for vector from below
the function definitions to the existing include block near the top of the file,
and change it from an Objective-C import to a C++ include.
- Around line 197-207: Update the saved menu-state handling around s_savedStates
to use manual ownership: retain s_editMenu and every saved NSMenuItem, copy each
saved keyEquivalent, then release those retained/copied objects after state
restoration and cleanup. Ensure the restoration logic remains unchanged while
preventing dangling pointers when menus are rebuilt or key equivalents are
updated.
- Around line 243-261: Update the fallback NSMenuItem creation in the
s_actionSpecs loop to set both hidden and allowsKeyEquivalentWhenHidden to YES,
keeping the item’s keyboard shortcut active while preventing the untranslated
fallback title from appearing.
- Around line 229-235: Initialize the default Edit-menu submenu and action
mapping when no override is configured, while preserving the existing setter
hooks for tests and overrides. Update the NativeDialogScope/default setup around
s_customEditMenuIndex and s_customEditMenuStructure in
framework/interactive/internal/platform/macos/macosinteractivehelper.mm:145-172
and ensure the fallback is used by the selection logic at
framework/interactive/internal/platform/macos/macosinteractivehelper.mm:229-235.
framework/interactive/internal/interactive.cpp:414-416 requires no direct
change; it is evidence that production dialogs rely on the helper defaults.
In `@framework/interactive/tests/macosinteractivehelper_tests.mm`:
- Around line 41-49: Update SetUp in the macOS interactive test fixture to
detect when a GUI session is unavailable before relying on NSApplication or
installing m_mainMenu, and call GTEST_SKIP() for headless environments when the
main menu cannot be installed. Preserve normal fixture initialization when a
window server is available.
- Around line 555-560: Update the test around the
NSMenuDidEndTrackingNotification posts so it drains the main operation queue
after each post and before asserting observer effects. Apply this at both
assertion blocks covering undo/redo target restoration and editSub
autoenablesItems, while preserving the existing expectations.

267-289: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick winRecreate fallback items after an Edit menu rebuild.
Fallback items are created only in the constructor. If Qt clears the Edit menu while the scope is active, it removes these items. The tracking callback reapplies targets only to matched items. It does not recreate missing actions.
The current menu-recreation test clears the menu and adds only
undo2. After tracking ends, Redo, Cut, Copy, Paste, and Select All have no fallback shortcuts. Make fallback creation idempotent and run it after every tracking transformation. Extend the recreation test to verify the missing fallback actions.🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

- Around line 160-186: Replace the hard-coded fallback index mapping in the
edit-menu lookup with layout-independent matching against each existing menu
item’s key equivalent and modifier mask for the requested EditAction. Update the
selection logic around s_customEditMenuStructure and the items traversal so
applyScopeTransformations receives only the item whose shortcut matches the
action, regardless of separators, extra entries, or interface language.
- Around line 196-218: The notification-handling transformation must re-resolve
the current Edit submenu from [NSApp mainMenu] before processing s_actionSpecs,
rather than relying on the potentially detached s_editMenu. Update saved-state
handling to remove entries whose items belong to the detached submenu, then
apply transformations and add fallback items only to the live submenu; add
coverage that replaces the Edit submenu object and verifies the transformation
targets the replacement.

Hi @Jojo-Schmitz , done the rebase. Could you please review? Thanks |

That'd need to be done by the core team |

Resolves: musescore/MuseScore#34605
Summary of Changes
When native macOS modal file dialogs (
NSSavePanel/NSOpenPanel) are presented, AppKit routes standard editing shortcuts (⌘Z, ⇧⌘Z, ⌘X, ⌘C, ⌘V, ⌘A) through the application's native menu bar ([NSApp mainMenu]). In Qt applications where Edit menu items target internal action dispatchers, this causes shortcuts to either fail with system error beeps (if inactive in the background score) or mutate the underlying score instead of the dialog text field.This PR adds
MacOSInteractiveHelper::NativeDialogScope:Undo,Redo,Cut,Copy,Paste,Select All) totarget = nilandenabled = YESduring native modal dialogs, routing them up AppKit's Responder Chain directly to the focused dialog text field.setEditMenuIndex()andsetEditMenuStructure().NSMenuDidBeginTrackingNotificationandNSMenuDidEndTrackingNotificationto ensuretarget = nilpersists even if the user clicks/opens the Edit menu during a file dialog.muse_interactive_testsverifying target delegation, nested scopes, fallback lifecycle, dynamic linear structures, and tracking persistence.Screen Recodings

Design Decisions & Alternatives Considered
Why not
NSEventkey monitors / Qt event filters? Native file panels run out-of-process in modern macOS. Keystrokes in the dialog text field do not hit the host application's event loop orNSEvent.addLocalMonitorForEventsMatchingMask:. AppKit routes shortcuts strictly through[NSApp mainMenu], making First Responder delegation (target = nil) the standard Cocoa solution.Why not
[NSMenu performKeyEquivalent:]method swizzling? Swizzling core AppKit methods permanently alters global event dispatch across the entire app lifetime, risks key hijacking in other text fields or VST plugins, and relies on brittle heuristics against private Apple XPC class names (NSRemoteView).Why not title string matching? Localized UI translations (Chinese, Japanese, German, Russian, etc.) and dynamic undo titles (e.g. "Undo Add Note") make title string parsing brittle. Index registration based on command constants provides a 100% locale-agnostic solution.
Why menu tracking observers? If a user clicks the Edit menu while a file dialog is open, Qt's QPA menu handler resets item targets. Tracking observers re-apply
target = nilwhen tracking ends.I signed the CLA as yuan3y
The title of the PR describes the problem it addresses.
Each commit's message describes its purpose and effects, and references the issue it resolves. If changes are extensive, there is a sequence of easily reviewable commits.
The code in the PR follows the coding rules.
I understand all aspects of the code I'm contributing and I'm able to explain it if requested.
The code compiles and runs on my machine, preferably after each commit individually. I have manually tested and verified that my changes fulfil their intended purpose.
No prior attempts to resolve this problem exist, or if they do, I listed them in my PR description and described how I avoided repeating past mistakes.
There are no unnecessary changes.
I created a unit test or vtest to verify the changes I made (if applicable).
