courtesy accidentals plugin - has no effect.
I clicked Configure Accidentals, and then I clicked to Add Accidentals, but no accidentals were added.
I tried adding both from within the Configure panel and as the separate Add Accidentals panel/plugin.
I tried adding with courtesy accidentals in parentheses and without.
I tried adding to the end of the score and just to the end of the measure.
I tried before clicking Add Accidentals clicking on a note with a # that repeats in the measure.
I tried before clicking Add Accidentals clicking on a # for a note that repeats in the measure.
Nothing added any accidentals.
Using Musescore 3.5 and the plugin for Musescore 3.05+.

In order to understand and assist, we'd need you to attach your score, and tell us the precise steps to reproduce the problem. For me, the plugin works flawlessly, I use it almost every day. I normally use it by selecting the entire score first, never tried just clicking a single note, though. Can't imagine how that might be expected to work 0 it's designed to work by analyzing an entire range.

I added select-all-first to my attempts. (Previously I clicked on an individual note thinking the "Add accidentals to the end of the measure" command would require a specified starting point.) Still no luck.
Adding "dodecaphonic style" works: every single note gets an accidental - including naturals.
The "Remove Courtesy Accidentals" plugin works.
Adding still does not, either from within the configure panel/plugin or the add plugin.
See attached excerpt.
Thanks

I have loaded your score. Can you give one clear and precise set of steps to reproduce the problem you are seeing? I tried the following:
1) Ctrl+A to select all
2) Plugins / Accidentals / Add Courtesy Accidentals
This did nothing, as expected, because there are no notes that require them according to the default rules. So I then ran Plugins / Accidentals / Configure Courtesy Accidentals and chose the dodecaphonic style. That worked perfectly.
I am kind of guessing from what you wrote that you were expecting there to be a way to add courtesy accidentals to only some of the notes notes in the current measure - like, only the subsequent F#'s in the first measure. I don't think there is such an option.

Ah yes that is exactly what I was wanting: subsequent accidentals. Many of the measures have 32 notes per measure with no easily-seen pattern. It's hard to keep track of which notes had an accidental earlier in that measure.
If only I could do dodecaphonic then remove all naturals!
I created an "issue" (feature request) on github. https://github.com/heuchi/courtesyAccidentals/issues/1

You can remove all naturals by right-click on one and use Select > More > Same Subtype
Although that likely also removes all intended naturals and not only the courtesy ones.

Thanks! I'll skim thru to see if there are any naturals that should be included, then do that.

37 necessary naturals later... now marked with rehearsal markings (A) (B) ... (KK). Only half done. This workaround is better than nothing, but if the plugin could include this function as an automatic option, I think it's worth adding!
