I certainly understand that as being the most common need. However I am not a composer. I am in the position of either adapting an existing book for younger players who may not be able to play all the instruments in a book or fixing my own book so the page turns are better maybe because of cuts. . Sometimes I am just creating parts and maybe scores from existing hard to read parts. I usually want to just get music that already exists into the computer. Even though my transposition skills are fine it's safer to enter the music directly as written. > > > Do you use the \quoteDuring mechanism (as below) or Jan-Peter's > > auto-transposing engraver to > > generate the engraved pitches for each instrument? I often use \quoteDuring for parts of what I do avoid entering a doubled passage more than once.. So I am saying that I would like any new features for instrument switching to suit my need to not always enter the notes in concert pitch. I don't really think that be a problem. Paul > Neither.
