Moved check for chords symbols in selection to after the dialog so the setting for which type to look for could be set by the user. This should have no effect on the output.
Internally, the code was restructured to move most of the processing out of the Run routine into ProcessSelection, and the check for an empty selection is now made before the dialog appears. Also made the display of the number converted at the end of the plugin a dialog option. Added code to retain the horizontal and vertical offsets of the original text or chord symbol objects. Updated 8 September 2012 adding option to use plain text rather than formatted text when converting to Legacy chord symbols. Updated 9 August 2011 for Sib 7 dialog control changes

Since any font can be typed in, you can choose different fonts with the proper characteristics to add superscripts rather than removing them, and other options as well. The resulting text objects can have multiple fonts if you add new chords, they changes will not be applied, but the plug-in can be re-run as needed. By applying various options, the b following the A can be normal, but the b following the 7 can be subscripted the 7 can be un-subscripted, while the 5 can be subscripted. So as an example, you could have Abmaj7b5, and in Opus Chords font all the numbers and accidentals are superscripted. If you need more control over which characters change, use Advanced Options, which allows you to have, for example, only numbers or accidentals not in extensions un-subscripted. Do not use the \\\'flat\\\' option if you are using lower case \\\'b\\\' characters that are not flat symbols, as all lower case \\\'b\\\'s will be changed.īy default, all numbers and accidentals will have the font applied. Only single numbers will be changed, not stacked digits. There is no way for the plug-in to validate the existence of the font, so please type carefully! The most likely replacement font choices are Opus PlainChords or Inkpen2 Text, but you can type in any font you like.
