Hello!
Is it not possible to have chord symbols on the bass guitar staff/part?

Sure, you can display them on any staff. Did you change the setting for that staff in Setup?
Thanx for the responses!
I wasnât aware of the setting, however I checked, and the switches" are on, but âŚ
I checked on all of the instruments, and the switches are all on. Bearing in mind, that once i entered the chord symbols on the classical guitar, they automatically appeared on the jazz guitar, shouldnât they show up on the trumpets as well?
Iâm trying to understand for future use, where i will definitely need them for the trumpets.
Thanx, again!
In your screenshot the lower switch is set to âShow For Rhythm Section Instrumentsâ. It needs to be set to âShow For All Instrumentsâ.
Bear in mind that this set of options is set separately for each Player. This makes sense once you bear in mind that a Player could, for example, play both Guitar (which is rhythm section) and Harmonica (which is not rhythm section).
Aha. I had always wondered about thatâŚ
In my humble opinion itâs one of those areas where Dorico assumes the user always wants the flexibility, and could (one day!) have better defaults or options, just like the tuplet situation we were discussing yesterday. Iâm guessing that 90% of Dorico players donât hold multiple instruments, let alone a range of instruments that span rhythm and non-rhythm sections, and Iâm guessing that 90% of tuplets entered are basic 3:2 triplets.
Anyway, Iâm off topic now so Iâll stop!

Interesting, but isnât the bass guitar a rhythm section instrument?
Iâll check again âin the new yearâ. Iâm on the way out to âring it inâ.
Sure, but trumpets are not rhythm instruments. Happy new year!

True, but when the trumpeter needs to take a solo âŚ

It worked! ⌠counter-intuitive, but it worked!
Thanx!
Now, I have to experiment with only giving the trumpeter chords for the section where the solo happens.
This is exciting!
Thanx, Dorico Team!
To just give chords for a certain bit, Iâm afraid youâll have to âshow for all,â then hide the chord symbols in the bars you donât want them.

Iâll take that as a âwork in progressâ.
