Comparison chords(= harmony) from rootcontainer between NOT rootcontainers

When i study the arrangement demo 1 example..the chord ruler seems to be unused there in the arrangement view.


So when i look at the not rootcontainers their chordprogression opposite of that from the chordprogression of the rootcontainer ..that is not possible now.


I like to see in the instrument sheet at the top a chord ruler too, from the used total chord progression in the arrangement.


Suppose i choose the Clarinet Solo Container than this container section harmony is reflected also in the chord ruler (new to program by Cognitone) into instrument sheet.


So there is than a existing chord ruler in the arrangement view and a new chord ruler in the instrument view


note: the chord ruler is not working in this demo arrangement in arrangement view ?

Strange enough the  Orchid project GPO example arrangement shows here the chord ruler ?? and not in the arrangement demo example arrangement ??.. why?

Perhaps better is to have a rootcontainer progression ( originalon full length) and under this the not rootcontainer harmony to see the chance between them.

Child container's harmony replaces the root container's harmony. That is normal inheritance. The chord ruler always shows global harmony with all child containers in effect.

Yes, thanks for the explanation!
Tell me why the chord ruler shows no chords in the Arrangement demo 1 example?


 


My point is also that there is no oversight of the complete harmony in the arrangements used.

So it is now possible to see the whole used harmony for a arrangement, but if you want to chance some chords and add a chords container for it , than the content of the chordcontainer replaces the original chords from the rootcontainer in the chord ruler.


That's is not handy for experimentation: i like to see what i have chanced for comparison


In chanel no5 demo for instance is a good example  


There are 2 pianochords containers and a second harmony container.. i cannot see the original harmony in the rootcontainer against the chanced harmony?
