But does it do the opposite, and is that what John is seeing?
It’s possible. I just fix them without thinking about it. I’ll try to pay more attention!

No answer yet from SmartScore.

SmartScore is apparently not mistaking the tie to be a slur, because it imports into Finale as a tie. This is seen in the first example in which the tie tool boxes are seen.

The editing box in the second example reveals that the second tied note is still following the key signature and remains a natural.

My project has about 700 pages of piano music. The error occurs consistently whenever an accidental is applied to a note tied over a bar line.

Did you press A or * to show the natural under the cursor?

I pressed *. The SmartScore Tech contacted me today and requested the tif. file that produced the result in the example for them to check.

Just to complete this thread, Mike and the SmartScore tech have confirmed that this issue does not occur in the latest version of SmartScore in the file that I sent to them for testing.
