Thanks,
I tried. Too complicated for me. I think Flurmy's suggestion is the simplest solution, also because I have to use layering anyway for other reasons. Good evening.

Avant-garde / Windows Copilot may help faster than searcing the forums for help .

I already knew the answer, but thought I'd see if Windows Copilot could get me to the same place.  It did!

My rather poorly worded  question: 
To transpose a D-flat instrumental part to concert pitch (for a C instrument), what command is needed in Noteworthy Composer?

Copilot's answer:
To transpose a D-flat instrumental part to concert pitch for a C instrument in Noteworthy Composer, you can use the Transpose Staff command. Here’s how you can do it:
Select the Staff: Click on the staff you want to transpose.
Open the Transpose Staff Command: Go to Tools > Transpose Staff.
Set the Number of Semitones: Since D-flat is one semitone below C, you need to transpose the staff up by 1 semitone.
Update Staff Playback: Make sure to check the Update staff playback option if you want the playback to reflect the transposition.
This will transpose your D-flat part to concert pitch for a C instrument.

If you have any other questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask!

While I have learned from experience that Copilot cannot be trusted to give right or accurate information, here it did.

NEXT DAY FOLLOWUP
It took 3 tries for Copilot to get a transposition from Eb Clarinet to Bb Clarinet right this morning, so I suggest using Copilot carefully; always check to see if its advice is good.

General Discussion / Recovered Files
Last post by Marianne van Harten -
When I start Noteworthy Composer the application also opens 31 recovered Files. The files are outdated and no longer in use.
After closing (abondoning) these files and also shut down NWC, the next time when starting NWC, the 31 recovered files will be back in the app.
How do I definitely delete these files?

Best regards,
Marianne

Why? Because it is coded so. It's one of the limitations of NWC.
And, yes, you need to use the layering.

(È uno dei limiti di NWC. Per farlo si deve usare il layering.)

General Discussion / Trave in beamed group
Last post by lawrroc -
Good morning to you,
I ask why in a chord with beamed notes (e.g. two octaves) only one of the two pairs appears joined by the barline, or the one with the stems up or down, but not both. Do I have to resort to stratification? On page 47 of the manual what I don't get is very clear.
Where is the solution?
Excuse my English. I attach two images that explain better than many words.
Grazie.
