Yes, but it is not correct for german instrument names.
You may have overlooked it, but Antonio_E, who you were answering to, was specifically setting instrument names to English, therefore expecting them to read âin Bbâ. 
Yes you are right.
There is a new problem turning up, some people would prefer to use german instrument names and english note names. Now that is confusing - and I donât see, how a software should be able to solve this.
Well, given the options Dorico currently provides, this would already be perfectly doable:
Set âInstrument namesâ to âGermanâ => âKlarinetteâ
Set âNotennamen in deutschen Instrumentnamenâ to âEnglisch (Bb / B)â => âBâ instead of âHâ
Set âVorzeichen in âŠâ to âNotensymbol verwendenâ => âBbâ
The only thing is that it seems to be a tiny bug that Dorico does not respect the second option correctly when Dorico is itself set to run in German.
But, generally speaking, all the options Dorico now provides would perfectly allow for the request to combine German instrument names with English indications of transposition.

Estigy,
my guess is, there is a function under the hood, where displaying transposed view or concert view might use some of the information stored here. Thatâs why it has to follow a logic. Or needs additional programming for these casesâŠ
Itâs nitpicking, I know, but there doesnât exist anything like Bb in German (âBes??â). Itâs only an English term meaning indeed B in German. What you are referring to is called Heses, which is a âdouble-down-alteredâ H
Eddo, we know. And we already established this. Please read the whole thread
Estigy Hello,
I did indeed read the thread in its entirety and was referring to k_bâs answer to Antonio_E
Unfortunately, the switching in the display of the instruments does not work as planned. Do I have a wrong setting ?
Thanks⊠a great update !!!

(I moved your post here @Eggi to avoid duplicating the same issues over and over in separate threads.)
Hey pietzcker,
Its labelled correctly as u already said in full score. But if u use the default token in the parts itâs the player name not the instrument name. In that Case check which token itâs using 
I cannot confirm on Mac:
I have a completely different issue here though: I cannot get âTrompete in Bbâ, only âTrompete in Bââ
âNotennamen in Deutschen Instrumentennamenâ does not have any effect at all when changed.
Only, when I change the second to last option to âNotensymbol verwendenâ does it actually work (Horn now correctly showing B instead of H, but Trumpet and Clarinet showing Bâ, instead of Bb"
I have the same problem it doesnt work in instrument part
I have the same problem this the tolken.
It is normal or not .
What I have missing.
Can you help me please
Will show you what I mean when at home. The stuff is working right. The only thing is which token you use in the part layout. As already said. The instrument will shown correctly. Give me about 1h and I will post a screenshot
I donât think staff labels are working right. Check out my second screenshot.
In the single Layout yeah there itâs not working but the rest is fine. But u can just change the layout Name or Player Name to whatever you want
Only in that next one there is an error, but as i said
Not a real big thing to fix
no in the full score it doesnât work properly either with the trumpet in si bĂ©mol notation
It works in exactly your case, but in my case it doesnât follow the rules I set. I wanted German names with English Letters and I still had âHorn in Hâ.
