Can any Sibelius users out there confirm that Sib 4 fixed the bug

Hmm, I don't recall ever having a problem with tenor sax, which is
also an 8va transposer, and I write for it regularly. Checking bari
. . . ok, looks fine to me - what was the problem exactly?
Ken
The students apparently enter the bari in concert pitch in bass clef,
but when it gets transposed it is an octave lower than it is supposed
to be. Tenor sax is the same deal, entered in bass clef or treble clef
concert pitch then transposed by Sibelius, comes out an octave too low.
I suppose I will have to find out how to change the instrument
definition defaults, in order to tell the students.
Thanks all.
