About concert pitch

• Mar 8, 2009 - 17:39

Hi, a little bug I think in the concert pitch function:
I tested it with a very simple score: I let everything by default, I chose one voice of piccolo for the instrument. I wrote a D Major scale in quarter notes. Then I changed in the staff properties the transposition from 12 to 11 semitones. Then if I ask for the concert pitch version, the F sharp has turned a F natural instead of a E sharp. Key signature is correct.
If it can help...
Regards,
Pierrot

I've noticed that Musescore seems to favor flats and naturals over sharps. Using the latest revision, If I have a piece written in the key of E (4 sharps) and I press the C key to enter a c sharp. If this is in the wrong octave It will change to a D flat with an accidental when I push the ctrl+arrow up. If I then push the arrow down, it will move it to C natural with accidental. up again it goes back to D Flat. I end up having to leave it a C natural then pressing the sharp button with the mouse twice to get it right.
