Hm, I would expect Natural to lead to a natural sign always -- otherwise there would be no way to force a cautionary one (for example against an accidental in the previous bar) if Rosegarden didn't manage to work it out for you. I don't think there is any way to force Rosegarden _not_ to draw an accidental if it thinks it should, but there are probably fewer cases in which you'd want to. I might be quite wrong about all this though (as usual). > Perhaps we should rename 'NoAccidental' to 'Inherited' or something to better > explain it doesn't mean there's no accidental, but that the accidental will be > determined based on the key? The most significant point I think is that in Rosegarden accidentals are basically optional, because the notes may have come from MIDI data which includes a performed pitch but no notation. So the default for any note is NoAccidental, i.e. this note has no accidental property associated with it at all, i.e. Rosegarden should do what it thinks best. The name NoAccidental is logical from that perspective (though I don't disagree that it is also confusing for the human reader without that context). The reason the function parameter is named explicitAccidental is in recognition of that confusion, though it evidently also doesn't do enough to eliminate it.
