Transpose treats accidentals oddly.

• May 1, 2009 - 03:43

I looked in the forums and couldn't find a discussion of this problem.
When transposing chords, the program seems to handle accidentals in a non-intuitive manner.
Here's an example.
-In the key of C, create a minor third interval with notes on G and Bflat. (i,.e the fifth and flat 7th of the C chord)
-Select All and transpose up 4 semitones.
Instead of being shown as B and Dnatural (the fifth and flat 7th of the E chord), it's shown as B and C double sharp. It's still arguably a minor third but it LOOKs like an augmented second.
Can I set it up to handle accidentals in a better way, or do I need to go back and clean these all up manually?

There are some accidental oddities with transposition. For now the only way to fix it is to go back and clean these manually. However, the particular example give seems to work properly when I try it with the latest prerelease.
