The problem is itās only sharps, no flats at all in the key editor and the drop down lists. (including the the Project Key)
This is not a problem in the Score editor of course, that has been sorted well imo.

I brought this up at least a year ago.
Perhaps the new London notation team will have a solution
in an up-date/grade.
Hope so.

Iāve just re-read my post from last night and itās ambiguous. I didnāt mean the problem lay with the Project Key, I meant that they might be able to solve it in part from there. But in the cold light of day Iām no longer sure itās such a great ideaā¦ (it was late)
Donāt worry. Iāve just gone over my life from the past few decades. Itās also ambiguous.
I know that one, I just keep taking the medsā¦
They gave you meds!!!???

+1. The whole āeverything is a sharpā is just plain wrong - if you set the key then it should respect that. It means I make mistakes sometimes when explaining something to a class, so I canāt imagine how confusing they find it when theyāre not even comfortable with key signatures etcā¦
Cāmon guys,
We all know that notation/score users are the āred-headed-step childrenā of Cubase.
But IMHO it is getting a lil better. (a lil.)
As of C4 I gave up completely and went over to Finale and then Sebelius.
(To be honest I used Finale before I ever heard of Cubase. 1992-3)
I tried again with C5 and hardly even touch it with C6.
I am not sure what changed (maybe me) but as of C7 I can now score in Cubase.
Nothing heavy duty yet but scoring for my choir and orch at church
can now all be done in Cubase. And it prints beautifully.
IMHO
It will just get better going forward, But I still keep Sebelius at the ready.

Cāmon guys,

Itās not just score though, Iām talking about key and list editors (and indeed throughout Cubase) - if a key has been set, it should be reflected here.
I long ago (i.e. in the late 90s) gave up any chance of the score editor getting fixed properly!
Itās not just score though
Actually, this problem does not exist in Score Edit, obviously. curteye probably meant that itās score users who care so much about sharps and flats display, but thatās not the subject of this free-ranging thread.
I do lots of work in Score edit, itās great for small ensemble stuff.
+1 DEFINITELY!
Holy Thread Resurrection, Batman!
However, I still come across this all the time - itās incredible how confusing it can be when youāre trying to teach someone whoās just getting their head around key signatures and some basic theory, and you then have to tell them that despite you saying that there are flat keys they all get displayed as sharps in Cubase. When a kid just about understands that thereās a B flat in the key of F and then has to make the mental jump to having an A and an A# in his work, itās incredibly hard for some of them (Iād say just about all who donāt have a formal music background before I start teaching them).
Come on, Steinberg, it canāt be that hard to do? (If you can be bothered, of course!)
I too would love to have resolution to this, it drives me batty to be in Eb and see all the sharps.
Fingers crossed a fix is just around the corner.
C8 still the same problem ā¦ itās very very confusing thinking in flats and see sharps! ā¦one day we will be happy to see flats in the key Editorā¦I hope very soon
I posted about this in cubase 8 issues, got shunted to the ghetto, I think. Itās so unmusical not to be able to define a note as what it should look like in a certain context. So, nope, not fixed. But a good suggestion. The first time i saw D# in an Ab major section ā¦ well ā¦
+1 and more please Steinberg! It makes no musical sense as it is now.
Mike.
YES +1 !! Why canāt you set the key of the project globally?
