I'd go with #3 (or #1).
 
It is unnatural for me to think that the plugin would change things outside 
 of the region I currently have selected. The only reason for me to select 
a  smaller region after doing a scan (barring user error) is so that I can 
edit a  smaller region of the score.
 
#4 adds another window I have to navigate to.
 
#3 gives the most flexibility and draws my attention to the fact that I  
have changed the selection region since the results of the scan where 
presented.  This is a good safety feature. I assume that if the selected region 
hasn't  changed the user will not have to answer the question of whether to use 
#1 or  #2...

Hello!

Attached is a new updated version of the main window  for the cautionary 
accidentals plug-in. It also displays one of my  personal favorites in 
this plug-in (the ability to restate accidentals on  full-sized notes if 
the accidental was on a grace note).

I have a  question regarding the "Change Checked" feature (where the 
accidentals are  being changed in the document, the "Scan" button only 
reports the  occurences):

Since the UI is modeless, it's possible to modify the  selected region 
after a scan. What's most logical if the region is smaller  on "Change 
Checked" than the scanned region:
1. Only change the checked  accidentals that also appear in the new 
region (don't apply anything if  there is no region anymore)
2. Change the checked accidentals regardless of  selected region
3. If the region has changed, ask the user between #1 and  #2. If there's 
no region anymore, change all checked accidentals in the  document.
4. Control what to do through a setting in JW Plug-in  Tool


Best regards,

Jari  Williamsson
