I have searched the forum, the manual and the internet but I can’t find an answer to my question.
Is it possible to edit an instrument name and add a proper flat sign, say for timpani tuning notes? Timpani (F,C), for example is not a problem but trying to edit the text to say Timpani (Bb, Eb) with proper flat signs is a problem. Yes, I could just use “b” for the flat sign as I have done in the past but I was hoping that the latest version of Dorico with its new tokens would be able to do this properly.
I tried using glyphs for the flat sign and it didn’t work. I tried using the token {@flat@} and that didn’t work either. I tried with Music Text and changing the font also but after editing the name looked like this: Timpani B{@flat@}, E{@flat@}.
It must be possible because Dorico already uses the flat sign in other instrument names like Bb Trumpet. I am sure that I am just missing something or doing something incorrect when editing the instrument name and any help or point in the right direction would be great.
Thanks in advance.
