Hi Mark,

I have been teaching a little Trumpet to beginners recently and have had the need to mark the brass fingering (ie valve combinations) onto scores. While this can be done with free text it is very time consuming. would it be possible to have a "option" for this within Composer? I imagine it working like this - You would highlight a section of the score (or one note, or entire score) and then select "add brass fingering", A pop-up box would ask you to confirm which instrument the fingering is for and then automatically place the text on the score. Incidently, most brass (3 valve) instruments use the same fingering, french horns are different, some euphoniums have a 4th valve, and instruments that have rotary valves (as opposed to the normal up and down piston type) possibly have different fingering.

I would think this would not prove too difficult as the software is already capable of displaying text / chord symbols etc.

What do you think?

regards

Chris
