Transposing Chord Names

Musician automatically transposes chord names in these two circumstances:

1.When you transpose the pitch of the entire song or some range of measures in the song, Musician automatically transposes the chord names.
2.For an instrument part which has a transposed instrument key, Musician automatically transposes the chord names for all of the measures for that part.    This is done if, and only if: (a) the part displays only one staff, or (b) the multiple staves in the part all share the same instrument key transposition.
 
The transpositions of chord name keys is automatic.  This is generally good.  However, in rare cases where the spelling of a chord name is ambiguous, such as F#7 versus Gb7, and Musician makes a choice opposite of the one you would choose, Musician currently does not offer an option for you to change that decision.
