Editing Abbreviated Names in Score

My abbreviated names look like this right now…

I don’t want the (B Flat) part, but when I go to edit names in instrument definitions, I don’t see mention of the key anywhere. I just want Tpt 1 and Tpt 2. How do I change it?

Thanks Daniel!

Funny how I can stare right at that and still not see it.

For some examples, see here:

I would like to see “Trumpet in Bb” on the first page and “Bb Tpt.” on the second page. That would save space with the left margin. Currently you have to make the same choice for both abbreviated and full labels. I think it would be nice to have the option, but maybe that’s not standard practice?

You can rename a player or instrument however you like, if you want it to say something in particular (I think).

EDIT: I’m not sure if the “flat symbol” is available to use by entering the flat token: {@flat@} (ignore the formatting of that in this post)
