Accidentals on Turns
I was wondering if there is a feature where you can add an accidental to a turn or a trill.
If there is, that would be awesome. Can you show me where it is?
Thank you.

There are a variety of accidentals available via the Symbols palette (press "Z" to display). These can be placed as desired.

The request makes sense for me. Look at the attached files!
In the first measure I have placed the sharp by using "Z". The problem here is that is not possible change the accidental size (And it looks too big.). In the second case I placed sharp as staff text (ctrl+T)
In both cases I had to drag turn and accidental to position betwen notes. If the accidental could be attached to turn it could save me some work. When I use staff text size is ok (and I can control it) but when I create parts any positioning is lost . (Yes, the parts were create only after all adjustments).
I both versions 2.1 (d08e14c) and 2.0.2 (f51dc11)

I want input a flat and a natural with a turn, it looks to me there is no way to add them in as a text, which is a good looking small size, have you figured out how to input smaller size ones? from "z", too big as captured.

I always add them as text. while entering text, press F2 and you will see symbol that can be inserted into text.

I almost do not read any manuals, because I read and forget and they give too much info, not strait to the point I want to know, and sometimes they are outdated. Instead I always find and learn what I want at the real time from the software itself, menus alway give a good clue, but in this case I failed to find this SC window from there. for text formatting for example italics, I simplly use keyboard cuts since they are standardd but not F2.
Thanks agiain mike320.

It's not in the top level menu because it is only available in text edit mode. But you can access this window from the Text toolbar at the bottom of the main window while editing text (same place as the buttons for font etc).
Currently it is possible to attach an accidental to a trill taken from the Lines palette, but this is not enabled for elements from the Articulations and Ornaments palette.

Yes. This could be implemented.
