Yest it all depends on what you're doing. > BTW, I don't remember "Copy Everything" every copying clef changes. I > could be wrong, though. In WinFin97, it does, but only if there are notes (I first tried it without entering any notes, and it didn't copy, and then I remembered that there was an association between note entries and clefs, and put in some notes and copied again, and the clefs were copied). Seems to me that if the starting clef of the destination staff is the same as the starting clef of the source clef, you'd want the clef changes copied. Seems to me that "smart clef change copying" would be a nice feature, assuming it was optional. -- David W.
