Selecting music under slashes

Dorico
1

Maybe someone can help with this:

I have a big band chart that I had to transpose to a different key. Now everything plays back ok, except the rhythm parts that are hidden “under” slashes in the slash zones - It turns out, they do not transpose with the rest of the chart.

Please tell me that there a better way to select the music in the slash regions and transpose ALL the info on a chart, other than deleting all the different slash zones, transposing and then re-inserting them…?

Thanks!

Unfortunately, there isn’t a better way at the moment, which is obviously far from ideal! This is something we’ll need to figure out in future.

Someone on the Facebook group suggested I make the selection using the system track, which seems to work!

I would say, though, that being able to easily edit the music hidden behind the slashes is one of the very few things I miss about Finale, and I’m hoping this will be an option on Dorico as well.
