Hi. Please give more information. What MuseScore version you're using? What did you try to do, what did you expect and what you got instead?

I am guessing you are trying to copy individual chords rather than the measures as a whole. I can see that this does not transpose:

1) new score for tenor saxophone
2) select rest in measure 1
3) add a chord symbol C7
4) select the chord symbol itself (not the measure as a whole)
5) copy
6) click rest in measure 2
7) paste

Result: chord pastes as Bb7

The workaround is to copy the measures as a whole (then possibly delete the notes, leaving the chord symbols, by deselecting the chord symbols in the Selection Filter)

I will take a look. Meanwhile, please don't change the settings for this issue. "Assigned" is for the person who will fix the bug, not the person who reported it. It seems that might have have inadvertently, but keep that in mind for future bug reports.

Interestingly, it actually works fine when pasting a whole series of chords - eg, ctrl+click a bunch, or select a range then right click one chord and choose Select / All similar elements in range selection. Only *single* chords don't work.

I'm testing a fix, hope to have it in soon.
