For example, a Bb clarinet staff with key sig has interval=1, alter=2. Once I set TransposeChromatic, those numbers immediately change to interval=67, alter=0. And it turns out that the values I actually want in order to get things to look right are interval=2, alter=0. Horn in F starts with interval=4, alter=1 and goes to interval=2, alter=1 after setting TransposeChromatic. And if I try setting alter=0, it becomes -1.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Am I missing something here? </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Thanks,</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Aaron.</div></div>
