No choice of accidentals
I am using 0.9.4. Every accidental I enter becomes a flat, even in a "sharp" key. If I enter a sharp manually, it doesn't survive auto-formatting.
Further, if I press the "sharp" or "flat" or "natural" icon, it doesn't go away when I move on. It ceases to be effective, but if I want to sharpen another note, I have to cancel the icon first. According to the ordinary rules, an accidental persists for the life of its measure. This doesn't happen; if I hit the same note again, it is automatically a natural.

Hi Laidlaw,
This is from the new handbook: "The menu function Notes → Pitch spell tries to guess the right accidentals for the whole score." So, if you select the measures and click the menu option Notes / Pitch Spell, is the problem fixed?

I wasn't aware of that one. I will let you know.
I am coming from Noteedit, which had "Set all to sharp/flat" That was of more use when transposing. I play clarinets in b and A, and often would transpose from a flat key to a sharp key in the part.

That works well.
I have since downloaded the SVN version. It seems quite stable, and has two improvements, IMO:
(a) It actually honours the 'working directory' setting - it ignored it before.
(b) I can delete with BackSpace - that is almost a reflex for me.
