Edit Tonality System dialog

• You can open the Edit Tonality System dialog by clicking either New Tuning System or Edit Tuning System in the action bar in the Tonality System section of the Key Signatures, Tuning Systems, and Accidentals panel.

The Edit Tonality System dialog contains the following sections:

1. Name

   Allows you to enter a name for a new tonality system, or edit the name of an existing custom tonality system you created.

2. Divisions

   Allows you to specify how many divisions of the octave you want assigned to each interval.

3. Accidentals

   Displays the accidentals currently available for the selected tonality system. The two buttons at the bottom allow you to edit existing accidentals, and to create new accidentals.

4. Custom Key Signatures

   Displays the key signatures currently available for the selected tonality system. The two buttons at the bottom allow you to edit existing key signatures, and to create new key signatures.

Figure: New Accidental/New Key Signature button

Figure: Edit Accidental/Edit Key Signature button

Once you have decided on the number of divisions your octave has, and how many divisions are assigned to each interval, in the Divisions section of the dialog, you can assign existing and create custom accidentals for each raising/lowering pitch delta you want to notate in the Edit Accidental dialog.

You can arrange these accidentals into a custom key signature in the Edit Custom Key Signature dialog.
