I'm not sure I understand the purpose of this new wysiwyg.xml file. If it
doesn't define chord ids, why loading a file?
Tell me if I'm wrong
This file would replace chords.xml but no ids would be defined.
This file being empty, any chordname entered will not get an exact match
(since there is nothing to match), so it will go through the parser, and
get a parsed form.
The parsed form will not be used at all to draw anything on the score(?)
but used for transpose, musicxml etc...
On the score, the user will just see what he typed.
If this is right, it looks like a less powerful feature than what we have
right now. Since with this option enabled by default in the a template it
would be impossible to have Ctriangle (with the actual symbol) or Co
etc... right? Just ASCII text as I'm typing right now, not even flat/sharp
except if entered with the symbol palette (which BTW currently missed
them...)
So what did I missed?
