Thanks for the explanation Don, I finally understand this now. I think this means that the only way to keep a B-natural in a concert pitch parent score, and a C-sharp in a scor2prt transposed Bb trumpet score, would be something like this: % nv,noinst,mtrnuml,mtrdenl,mtrnmp,mtrdnp,xmtrnum0,isig, 1 1 4 4 4 4 0 -1 % npages,nsyst,musicsize,fracindent 1 1 20 0 t ./ %1Ar K+1+1 %% b2 bn | bs0 / %1 b2 bs | bss0 / Kurt _______________________________________________ Tex-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://icking-music-archive.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
