The Note Input Options dialog provides multiple options that allow you to determine how Dorico Pro interprets the data and MIDI you input by default.
For example, there are options relating to how accidentals and notes are spelled when inputting notes using a MIDI keyboard, what you want to include in chord symbols based on what you play, and how to consider multiple different aspects of chord diagrams, such as whether or not to omit the ninth in 11 and 13 chords.
