Cautionary accidentals
Hi all
I think it would be great to have an option to put automatically in the score cautionary accidentals in the bar right after the altered note (ex: F sharp in C major in bar 1, -> F natural WITH the accidental in bar 2)
Do you agree?
Regards,
Pierrot

You can do this.
Simply add the accidental to the note in the new bar.
Regards.

Yes that's true, it just takes for ever to do it manually for a whole piece :-)))

It seems to me that you are asking others to do the work of removing them so that you don't have to do the work of adding the.
I add them quite often, but I do it as I add the note and find that it takes very little time.
Regards.

Yes you're actually right, I didn't realize it sounded that way. Sorry about that. I just meant that I thought it is more often useful than unuseful in the way I use the software.
No problem, I will add them manually.

Cautionary accidentals require editorial discretion and should be used sparingly in published scores.

Yes, that's true also, but in my own experience, it is quite rare not to need the cautionary accidental. And it could still be possible to remove some of them manually afterward?
