hello everyone,

i wrote a theme with a finale in the key of A major; then I realized it works better one tone lower; so I clicked on the flats icon to reset the key, but upon clicking ok, the theme transposes correctly into the right key but an octave higher; is there a function to transpose all the notes of the theme down an octave (while keeping the new key unchanged)?

for now, I fixed it by transposing one note at a time using the direction keys (fortunately the theme is very short), but maybe, for the future, you never know... ?

thanks and happy music
