Key Signatures and Percussion

• Aug 24, 2021 - 15:51

Hello, when I try to add a key signature to a percussion part that starts out as non-pitched, but then switches to a pitched instrument, the key signature will not appear, but it appears for other parts like Trumpet, Flute, etc., is there a fix to this? or will I have to write my score in non-pitched percussion only and pitched percussion only?

This wasn't supported back when this issue is filed, but as far as I know it is now. Works for me. Just add the appropriate Instrument Change. However, depending on the specifics of where the instrument changes and key signatures are actually added, you may or not see the key signature by default. Some amount of fiddling might be required. For instance, you might need to set the staff in general to display key signatures in staff properties, or you might need to explicitly add the key signature to this staff (hold Ctrl while adding).

For the OP - if you attach your score, we can see what is going on and advise further.
