GIT commit: a2b136c

Steps to reproduce:

1) select any range of measures (not including the first) in Promenade or any score
2) Notes / Transpose
3) be sure chromatically, by key, and transpose key signatures are all checked
4) select desired key
5) OK

Expected result: notes are transposed and key signatures are inserted going in and out of passage
Actual result: notes are transposed, but no key signatures are inserted (notes are displayed using accidentals as appropriate to original key)


Comments

This looks more like a feature request to me. MuseScore never transposed "non existing" key signature, so we really want it to do that with Menu -> Transpose?

You're right of course! I guess I always *assumed* that's how it was supposed to work, but never tried it. I suppose such a feature could be useful, so if you don't mind I'll leave it open that way for now.
