When you enter with the number keypad at school do you get pitchless (yellowish-brown) notes? If you do get pitchless notes then I can see that this would have a didactic purpose in drilling note-names when entering the notes by keypresses A...G, but it feels rather slow and clunky - you get the note sounding twice if you have to enter it first then sharpen or flatten it after. And the command (*) for saying "make the next note sharp/flat" doesn't seem to apply for this way of entering the notes (is that right?). I just tried this method by unplugging my MIDI keyboard - I expected it to enter pitched notes but it didn't until I changed the preferences to turn off rhythm-entry. I'm just afraid people without MIDI keyboards may be very badly served for no very good reason.
