Question about the T: line in an abc notation header


Question about the T: line in an abc notation header

Does changing the name of a tune via the “Edit this tune” button also change the title indicated in the T: line in the abc notation for the versions of the tune sharing the original name that are already in the database?

Re: Question about the T: line in an abc notation header

The top field “Tune name” is the default title. Change that one, and you’ll change the default title. The first optional title under “Also known as” is shown within parentheses.

Yes, if you change the name of the tune, that change will be reflected (in the T: line) in the ABC notation for all the settings of that tune.

Thanks Jeremy. That’s what I was primarily wondering. And thank you, Jeff, for clarifying the “also known as” functionality.
