Can't change chord font
I can't change chord font. After selecting a new font, it goes back to "Edvin" font. A few times I have managed to get the right font for the chord, but not for the accidental. In this case it shows the correct font when in "Editing mode" (see picture 1) but when I go to next inout, it goes back to the pre-set font (picture 2).
How do I get control over editing fonts?
Thanks

MuseScore changes a # to a sharp glyph (and a b to a flat glyph). which does look different, but still is from the same font
For the whole score you can adjust the desired font in format->style...->text styles->chord symbol

Thank you Jojo and Kuwitt for your answers, which however they don’t solve my problems. I have two problems:
• Starting a new score I cannot change the chord font at all – it is always ”Edvin”.
• The other score, from which I sent the pictures, is imported (mxl) from Finale. Every chord is correct except the # shows in a completely different (ugly) font and can’t be changed, not even to ”Edvin”.

Sure not. The name is Edwin, not Edvin ;-)
Please share the score.
And check Format > Style > Text styles > Chord symbols A (and B)

Sorry Edwin :-)
Please look at F# at the 3rd system. As I wrote before, the correct # is shown in the frame when I click the chord, but the font changes when I save or move to next bar. Same thing also happens if a try to put a # or a b after another chord.

Did you change the style settings as mentioned in format->style...? Share the score means as mscz file, not as pdf.

Yes, I had already changed that. Sending you the mscz file below.

For me there was in format->style...->text styles->chord symbol another font adjusted. Check this attached version, if you've the same problem when you insert a chord symbol (not a staff text). I changed the already existing chord symbols in your score with right click on a chord symbol->select->all similar and then inside the properties dialogue. I have not change the chords you've inserted as staff text (B7alt, the G over F7).
