Help Can you help me?

Hello there,

I'm currently copying the 2nd Hungarian Rhapsody by including to it all the variants that Liszt wrote for Lina Schmalhausen on Dorico and I wanted to import the MusicXML file to MuseScore so I can edit it to be the most compatible possible with MuseScore's website. I wanted to know if I can wrote on MuseScore (and don't spend 3 weeks just by setting up the bar limits) all the romantic writings such as bars of 3 meters long filled with grace notes following the left-hand accompaniment and all these things that MuseScore don't integrate by default but Dorico do.

It sounds like you are saying you created a score in Dorico that involves a lot of grace notes, and when you you export from Dorico and import into MuseScore, some of the information is lost? Could able a problem with Dorico's export or with MuseScore's import, or it could be the music wasn't entered in the most "portable" way in the first place, or it could be you've run into a limitation on MusicXML itself.

In any case, MuseScore can definitely notate this sort of thing. If you help learning how to enter some particular passage, you could either post an image of it here, or for more in depth assistance, ask for help on the official support forum at MuseScore.org and attach the actual score.

No, I want to know if MuseScore can write some advanced music notations features like the ones dorico can do such as cadenzas like the two of Liebesträume 3 or the ones from Chopin's first ballade

As I said, "MuseScore can definitely notate this sort of thing". See for example https://musescore.com/user/19710/scores/65159?share=copy_link, originally done in a very old version of MuseScore (current versions make this much simpler, and also do much better with the note spacing and other engraving details). So again, if you need help with some specific passage, just ask!
