Concert Pitch Bug
Well, I entered concert pitch mode for just a minute or so because it's faster than transposing in my head. However, after I changed back (it took me a little while to realize it, so I'm not sure of the exact cause, but it's happened more than once), I realized that the key signatures were still in concert pitch, even though the notes were not (i.e., the flutes and clarinets were both in B flat major, but the clarinet's E flat was a D flat concert). Now I have to go back and fix all the key signatures. Strangely, it only affected the first key signature (I have a key change, but it is still as it should be). Thoughts?

What version, what OS, and can you post a score and steps to reproduce? Normally, key signatures are handled correctly when flipping concert pitch on and off in the current version - 1.2. Only situation I know of where this isn't true is if for some reason you change the transposition of a staff after entering notes, and you have concert pitch off while you're doing it (see another recent report).

I'm using Windows Vista and MuseScore 1.2. I'm not really sure what I did to make it happen, except alternating between concert pitch and normal. I didn't use the transposition option. Also, I'm not exactly sure posting the score would help, as it has happened before and is relatively easy to fix; it just takes a little while with larger scores. Also, it seems to happen with different scores. I think having a key change might have something to do with it. All the notes are correct; it's just the key signature that's messed up.

The main point of posting a score is to provide clues that might help the developers figure out what triggered the bug. It's possible that by looking at the internals of the file, someone will see something not right that will suggest how this happened. Or even just looking at the score in MuseScore might suggest something about a key to reproducing the problem. But of course, ideally, you'd have a score that *doesn't* yet show the problem, then a specific series of steps to reproduce it. Still, having a score that's already messed up is better than nothing.
