Add a classic guitar to the score using standard notation. Add a staff text and in the properties set it to Capo 2. Insert a G (notated) beneath the staff, an A beneath the staff, and then a B beneath the staff. Although there is only a major 2nd between the A and B, the jump is a minor 7th (up to the B an octave higher). In addition, aside from creating this issue, it doesn't seem like the Capo 2 has actually had an effect on the pitches that are being played. The pitches that are being played are still G A B when I would expect A B C#.

If I turn off the "Capo Settings" option the intervals are fixed (I actually get a major 2nd between the A and B).

Comments

Regarding MS4.0, I can confirm that the capo text property is not functioning.

Staff/Part playback sounds at concert pitch regardless of the capo fret setting.

Bummer.
