can anyone confirm this?
create a chord of C#-Eb in one measure and in the following measure
C#-D#. hit opt-9 (enharmonic alteration) on the second chord and
explode to 2 staves, 1 note per staff.
C# and Eb appear in the 1st measure BUT in the 2nd it is C# and ***Db***
it would seem finale retains the original note name that was entered
but includes the alteration of the new enharmonic spelling.
all i can say is: %*&?*!!!! (of course i notice this only once i'm
on the final 3 parts of an orchestral score)
Not only can I confirm it, I've reported it to this list several
times, the other forum, and to MM (who at the time were extremely
inept in dealing with it).
There are actually 2 bugs:
1) Explode sometimes doesn't divide out the chords properly.
-what should be the top part suddenly duplicates the bottom
part, for example
2) The enharmonic bug.
-enharmonics changed in the Speedy tool often resort to
something other than what you have edited, and sometimes they change
while you are working on something else!
This is my personal number 1 most annoying bug right now. I just
don't have confidence that what I write stays the way I want it.
If this bothers you too, and it should, please send your concern to MM.
