Seems I recall the existence somewhere of a list of command equivalents
between FinMac and FinWin. I've been giving someone with FinWin help as
needed lately and I keep tripping over the differences, as I'm on the Mac.
Does such a resource actually exist or is my imagination and wishful
thinking

treble clef or

A bass clef for bass clarinet is also used in those scores in concert pitch.
I am asked to do that all the time. After I have to prepare the part in
transposed G-clef, and of course I have to correct all the overlapping
problems.
Also I have seen that in the pieces for soprano, guitar, and clarine

The main argument against this for me, as someone who has done a fair
amount of conducting, is that after you have studied all the
instruments and their characteristic sound in different parts of their
range, I would much rather see what the player sees, and have therby a
very clear sense of what t

Yes, I did mean that. Perhaps I was a bit loose in saying "played" a major
2nd lower - but sounding is what I meant. (In other words, I didn't mean that
the player plays the note as if it were written a major 2nd lower than what he

Colin,
have a look into db staff attributes/staff transposition.
Surely there is 'Set to clef' + treble clef enabled.
If you want to have clef changes - disable 'Set to clef'.
