ISSUE: not possible to use the 8v (octave) funcionality effectively when using linked stave and TAB.

Steps:

  1. create a score with linked stave and TAB
  2. write some high notes on the TAB, for example G 15th fret 1st string (this will displayed as a note on a ledger line on the stave).
  3. apply the 8va functionality to the stave in order to have the G note displayed one octave lower.
    ISSUE: the note doesn't move to the lower octave.

Note: some users suggested some workarounds, but they seem to be quite time consuming when writing a long piece of music.

Thank you

That is reproducibility. Frequency is the number or reports
And if it hasn't been implemented it isn't a bug but a feature request AKA Suggestion.
Then there's also priority, but that setting is not available to everyone
