Transposing instruments documentation

• Apr 12, 2024 - 04:38

We find the following statement in the v4 documentation:

     By default the program is displayed with all the staves at written pitch. However, if you wish to view the score at concert pitch just check the "Concert pitch" box (to the left of the tuning fork icon) in the status bar.

Is the first sentence supposed to mean:

     By default scores are displayed with all staves at written pitch.

Or perhaps:

     By default MuseScore displays all staves at written pitch.

And I think the second sentence would be clearer if written:

     However, if you wish to view the score at concert pitch just check the "Concert pitch" button in the Status Bar, which is located in the bottom right of MuseScore's main window.

You are right, it is not the program but the score that is displayed accordingly.
Why don't you change it? Anyone who can write here can also correct or expand the manual.

I assume you are a native speaker - I am not. I would only do it in the German translation.

Never mind, it can happen. Either Bradley Kunda corrects it again or it stays that way. It's not wrong!
However, I have just changed it from:
"if you wish to view the score at concert pitch go the Status Bar ..."
to
"if you wish to view the score at concert pitch go to the Status Bar ..."
