Edit Key Dialog
The Edit Key dialog allows you to specify and edit the key signature for your staff.
-
To open the Edit Key dialog, double-click the key signature symbol at the beginning of the staff.
If Key Changes for the Entire Project is activated in the Keys category of the Score Settings dialog (Project–Notation Style page), all changes made to the key always affect the entire project, so that it is not possible to define different keys for different staves.
