As the title says, create a new score using any transposing instrument (Bb Clarinet, Sax, etc) with Concert Pitch off. Enter a few notes, and then try to drag one of them. Once you release the note it will jump to a new position. With Concert Pitch on, things seem to work.

I confirm, the notes resisting to the move with the mouse. Apparently they tend to the pitch immediately above. Directional arrows seem ok.

Hmm, I just tested this and it's not fixed. If I create a score with any transposing instrument like Bb Clarinet, lay down 4 quarter notes G, A, B, C, and then try to mouse drag the G up to the C, when I release the mouse the note will jump _down_ to the middle C instead. In the Clarinet case I cannot drag any note higher than a B (as it will jump down) or lower than a middle C (as it will jump up).

For even more fun, once I've dragged the note to the C and it jumps down, now select it and try to adjust it up past the E with the keyboard to see how weird things are.

Creating a clean score and using the keyboard right away works fine, just not the mouse.

I can't seem to reproduce this any more, even though I don't actually see that anything changed. Can anyone reproduce using the steps in #4?
