Linked clef and tab staves insist on same symbol

• Feb 2, 2024 - 00:04

I created a linked staff to have notation and tablature, but I cannot get the tab staff to have the tab symbol and the clef staff to have the clef symbol—the same symbol always gets applied to both no matter what I do.

Is there a solution?

PS. This is on the current version of the app (running on macOS 11.7.10).

I've encountered the same issue ... and I vaguely recall that it can occur when altering an existing instrument that has a linked staff.

And surely you want the TAB clef showing in the lower linked staff ...

The solution I use always seems to work. Just click the unwanted bass clef and press delete. Let us know if that works.

So it occurred because I started with the TAB staff and created a linked clef staff below it?
OK, deleted the tab staff, created a linked staff from the clef staff, but when I changed it to a tab, look how some notes stayed the same while the rest jumped up. What da heck is happening now?

Sorry if I was unclear ...

You don't have to change or delete any staves. Just the clef symbol itself. The steps are:

     • Click on the Bass clef in your linked (lower) staff. The clef will highlight.
     • Press delete and you should see the TAB staff in its place.
