Is there a list of all modes I can input via. like Pop-Over Chords?

Dorico

Hello everybody,

I am confused about the options available. In the properties section when inputting a chord, Dorico gives the option to “show as mode,” meaning musical modes, such as Bb-Dorian instead of a Bbm6 chord. However, there are only the most basic options, and sometimes, when I write things like mel. min., it also works, but some others just won’t, like min. blues. So I wondered if a compiled list was obtainable regarding all chord-modes available in Dorico.

To quote the Dorico Popover document:

Modal/scales: ionian, dorian, phrygian, lydian, mixolydian, aeolian, locrian, melodic
minor, harmonic minor, whole tone, diminished half whole, diminished semitone tone, octatonic half whole, octatonic semitone tone, diminished whole half, diminished tone semitone, octatonic whole half, octatonic tone semitone.

Thanks so much! Do you know by chance if this might be expandable like the custom key signature function?

Popover syntax is (currently) not customisable.
