Natural incidental not applied but played Natural
Hi all,
I am having an issue with the attached file, the (A) is supposed to be Flat but it does not play flat.
I realize I have "quarter tones" in the Key Signature but I only have quarter on (E) and the issue was there before I applied the quarter tone with the plugin (Quarter Tone Play Back).
I created the key signature with Master Pallet the added it to the score.
What am I doing wrong.
Please don't ask me to upgrade to the latest version as the 3.0 Crashes every time I try to use (Quarter Tone Play Back). I am perfectly content with 2.0 for now.
Thank you all

Please... what measure(s)?
Custom key signatures do not affect playback. They are useful for humans to know what to play, but do not affect what MuseScore plays. There is a version 2 plugin that you may find useful (I haven't used it). See https://musescore.org/en/project/quarter-tone-playback

I don't understand !! the (A) is a "regular flat" not (custom) why wouldn't play it as flat ?

You created a custom key signature. Even if you created it to look exactly like the key of E-flat, the key signature would have no effect on playback. They currently don't work at all. They have no effect except to tell a human how to play. In the mean time you must use the plugin I linked to to get playback. Hopefully one day that will change, but I know of no current project to fix it.

thank you so much for respond... Got it, as far as the plugin, that is the same plugin I have, I did down load it again and it seem to be the same rev. I think the (2.) referenced on the plugin page is to Musescore rev. not to the plugin rev.
Thank you.

Yes, the plugin requires version 2, it has not been updated for version 3.

Aha!...
I didn't see which Ab note(s) because MS3 explicitly displays natural signs; and so, of course, none are played flat (regardless of any custom key signature)!

Sheesh!
