Hi Chris,

I don't have the email and I don't recall exactly what the issues were -- but 
the issues have all changed since the introduction of linked parts, so most of 
what I said is probably obsolete now. The biggest issue is that I have learned 
by experience never to use the 9 key to flip enharmonic, which is not reliable. 
I always use my iKey shortcuts for "Favor Flats" or "Favor Sharps" before 
entering the notes so that the accidentals are correct the first time.

The other significant annoyance is that the * key to show/hide accidentals does 
not always work with staves set to Chromatic Transposition, so I have to rely 
on the Cautionary Accidentals plugin to create courtesy naturals -- forcing 
them to appear does not always work reliably.

Cheers,

- DJA
