MuseScore 4.02 still seems to have to squash some bugs (e.g. disappearing pallets, stylesheets not being read properly...), but with some patience it is already quite usable...
Option 1
- Download my stylesheet and put it into your "Styles" folder.
- In MuseScore go to "Style settings" - "Text Styles".
- Under "Chord symbol" set the font to "Petaluma Script", confirm by hitting "OK" and close the settings window.
- Back in the main window go to "Format" - "Load style..." and select "make-chords-superscripted.mss".
- As mentioned above, MuseScore may not apply the changes immediately; save the file, re-open it and you should be done!
Pros: Looks quite acceptable, no font to be installed.
Cons: More complicated chords may not render properly, and sharp and flat glyphs look rather ugly :-(
Option 2
- Download my customized PetalumaJazzFont here and install it.
- Download this stylesheet and put it into your "Styles" folder.
- In MuseScore go to "Style settings" - "Chord symbols".
- Activate "Custom", select "chords_jazz-PetalumaScript.xml" and click on "Open".
- Again, due to a current bug in MS 4.02 you may have to go back to this setting, click on "Standard" and re-apply the stylesheet when you open your file the next time...
Pros: Looks fabulous ;-) and renders as known form the standard jazz setting, but with Petaluma Script.
Con: You have to install my custom font...
PS: If you select my custom font instead of "Petaluma Script" in Option 1, you will get rid of the ugly sharps and flats!
PSS: If you prefer the lilyJAZZ font look, have a look at my previous offering...
