Additional Comments

- The application will crash, if MIDI is not available. As soon as a MIDI-application (for example timidity) runs on linux the program works and will output MIDI-sound. - Since the graphical keyboard is an important method for editing scores, "normal use" is not possible. However, limited use is possible (for example displaying scores, making small changes...) Apart from this issue I could not find any other major issue. Shameless copy&paste: The original Capella fonts have to be replaced. -> install fontforge -> run fontforge -> open the original capella3.ttf font (in c:\Windows\Fonts) -> (new window) choose: file-> generate fonts -> (new window) choose truetype (Symbol) and save, ignore warning -> replace the original capella3.ttf font with the new generated one. -> rinse and repeat for the rest of the Capella fonts After this is done the fonts are displayed correctly.
