Positions of key signatures
You can change the positions of key signatures individually and by changing their default position project-wide.
You can move key signatures to new rhythmic positions in Write mode. They are positioned according to your settings on the Key Signatures and Spacing Gaps pages in .
Key signatures in Dorico appear in the correct position by default. You can move key signatures graphically in Engrave mode, but this does not change their rhythmic positions.
If you want to adjust the default position of key signatures relative to notes or barlines, you must change the project-wide values for spacing gaps on the Spacing Gaps page in Engraving Options.
