French C-clef and alternate f-clef
Could the French style C-clef and the older (reversed) F-clef be added to the clef pallet in musescore?

You can see the forms I'm referring to in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clef
the so-called K form of the C-clef and the hymnal form of the F-clef.

Hi,
I'm looking into this right now but I'm not an expert . I think I got the F clef right. It's a replacement of the F clef on 4th line right?
But the K form C clef, where do you need it? On which line?
Hi, the alternative F clef looks good. I've only ever seen it used in the bass clef position. So as you have it in the 2nd example (with a 5 to the left) is perfect.
The Fench k- form of the c-clrf can of course occur in any if the c-clef positions but probably alto and tenor should cover the vast majority of cases.
Thanks for looking into this.

Something like this would work? First line last one, and then the 3 first one second line.
Are you by chance familiar with the penultimate one on the first line? I wonder if it should transpose one octave down or not...

The clefs are now in the master palette for the current nightly builds.
Yes, that's yet another form of the c-clef: the H-form. I noticed that in the symbol table.
If the alternate F- and k-form C-clefts were provided in the symbols, then they could always be selected as a graphic and the standard forms made invisible.
That would personally work for me as an option for the few occasions I'd want to select these.
Looking at you symbol table (which I'm sure is not as full as mine in 2.0.3) I see the 2nd and 3rd c-clefs on the second line a very close the the k-form.

What happened to the additional C and F clefts? I was rather hoping they would have been in the 2.1 release.

They are in master. In 2.x they might cause compatibility issue

Just downloaded the latest master. new clefs look very nice. Thank you very much.
I did try to test this earlier, but couldn't get the source to build. The ran out of time. Maybe I'll give the development environment another go. Has anyone managed to compile musescore under Xenial?

It works under precise on Travis. It should work on Xenial. Check https://musescore.org/en/developers-handbook#Compilation for instructions.
