Pitch-before-duration issues

Hi there,

I don’t get this - here’s what I’ve done, copying you above:

  • shift N (note entry)
  • K (pitch before duration)
  • -(flat), E (Eb)
  • (Q) chord mode
  • G, B, D
  • 6 (crotchet)
    The result is a chord with Eb, G, Bb and D (I emulated your key signature)

to get your chord using pitch before duration, I do this:

  • Shift N (note entry)
  • K (pitch before duration)
  • Q (chord entry)
  • E, -G (Gb), B D
  • 6 (crotchet)

et voila, your chord. In pitch before duration, you specify the accidental before the note. you would like. If you specify another pitch, you need to specify the accidental again. In chord mode, these pitches are committed straight away (although not onto paper until you press a duration), and you need to specify the accidental again for the next note.

I think you’re right about the B natural - Bb though. If you specify B natural and keep pressing the same duration without changing the pitch, then you should continue to get B naturals and this behaviour isn’t consistent. It could be a bug, or just not thought through. B natural also keeps playing, which is clearly wrong.
