Chord Tool
Moderators: Peter Thomsen, miker
I'm trying to enter a Cb chord, but it keeps changing to B. How do I make it stay the way I enter it? Also, I want to enter a series of slash bars in a guitar score with a chord placed above it. How do I do that?

1) Type Dbbb. That will do it. For what it's worth, in my experience, guitarists (jazz) would prefer seeing a B chord. Cb is very uncommon in professionally arranged music..
2) Apply the Staff Style "Slash Notation" and enter the chord as usual.

For the Cb issue, usually just unchecking Simplify Spelling in the Chord Tool menu is all that is needed. I only need to use the workaround in rare situations (sometimes with capo chords, for example).
