Wrong Shapes After Key Change

This is a great plugin, I really like it. I just ran into an issue though on a piece with a key change, the shapes are assigned as per the original key even after the key change.

I normally just run the plugin without selecting any notes and let it convert the whole piece to shapes. But I also tried just selecting notes after the key change, and it still did not assign the right shapes.

I am a new MuseScore user though, maybe I am doing something wrong.

I've noticed this too. In the function, it always refers to curscore.keySig which is always the first signature in the entire score. I messed around a bit, trying to get the function to refer to cursor.keySignature instead of curscore.keySig, since the cursor.keySignature seems to return the current signature for each note instead of the one at the beginning of the score. Is there some way to work this through? My programming skills are too rusty to get it all together...

Sure. The attached piece has two key changes in it. Running the plugin changes all the note shapes using the original key only as reference. It doesn't matter if you select all the notes, none, or only a part of the song in a later key change.

In order to get it right, I have to change the beginning key signature, then select only the part of the song in that key, and change the shapes.

Thanks!
