In Jazz it is common to have additional information about a chord enclosed in Parens'
Ex> CMaj7 (#9)
Any chord with a paren in is skipped when transposing a score.

MuseScore transposes only the chordnames it can recognize. The recognition is based on a list of chord extension and Cmaj7(#9) is not in the list.

When examining the chord in quesion in the Harmony Properties window the previous chord properties are displayed ( assuming they too do not have anything in parenthesis.)
I would like to submit an enhancement for this to work as I had expected. Alternate chords or notes are always written enclosed in parenthesis.
Please add this cabability.

Thanks,
Robert
