Courtesy accidental in tied notes between systems/pages

Hello,

Is there an option to have a courtesy accidental when tied note comes from a previous system or a previous page ?

I can’t find it…

Thanks
Best

No, you’ll have to put them in manually: you can select the second note of the tie in Engrave mode, and then change the accidental property.

Ouch…
This is going to be an massive amount of work.

@dspreadbury
Daniel, could this be taken into account ?
It seems a reasonable addition to the accidentals options no ?

Thanks
Yan

This has been requested before, so don’t worry the team is aware of both the desire for the feature and its use-cases.

One of the difficulties is that cautionary accidentals have an impact, sometimes quite significantly, on horizontal spacing, which then has a knock-on effect on casting off calculations.
