Re: How to generate notes in a scale

[Mats Bengtsson]

Isn't it possible to obtain the same result in a simpler way by just 
transposing a hard coded
template in C major into the current key?
Information on the current key signature is available in the 
keySignature context property
(see the internal reference documentation for Key-engraver), but perhaps 
not in a very
useful way. Also, don't forget about the instrumentTransposition 
property (which is set
by the \transposition command) if you want to handle transposing 
instruments correctly.
