Oddly, I'm finding (after not using this feature for many years) that View Out of Range Notes isn't color coding out of range notes at all in a file for saxophone quartet. I have it set to Beginner and just to test, entered some notes that are way out of range for a particular instrument and nothing is getting color coded (I have the color set to bright red). The Check Range plugin does find it (although it's overcalling some notes and wrongly flagging them, which is the opposite problem). Can anyone confirm? This isn't happening with other scores that do not involve transposing instruments, and the Check Range plugin is a bit wonky in terms of the ranges it's setting so maybe it has to do with transposition? Thanks.

How did you assign the instruments? (What does the Score Manager say in its leftmost column?)

 

I have the color set to orange (default) and it works for me.

This was a much earlier score (I wrote it in 2011) and Aria wasn't even an option then, so I just opened the Score Manager (which I admit I don't use as often as perhaps I should) and that left column was Unknown. Setting it to the individual instruments worked fine. Thanks! Now I have to figure out why the Check Range plugin, even if I set the bottom note of the accepted range to A#3 flags B3 as out of range, but that's not a big deal. Thanks!!!!
