    Default Why not include the option to display the changes as ROMAN letters instead of latin

    This request has been asked a couple of times for, since the very beginnings... It can only be a small change in the code, would only take a couple of minutes to do that... and it would be so much better to view the changes in the "number notation" not as

    |1-7 77 |b7-7 67|

    but as

    |I-7 VII7 |bVII-7 VI7|

    wouldn't it?

    My warmest regards and thanks.
    xoxo

    Automatic number systems can only work with simple diatonic tunes in IRP because only one key can be set for the entire tune. So forget about modulations and key changes. That wouldn't make any sense to have numbers when a tune modulates from the key of C to the key of F for example

    Please please please please


    add roman letters for the chords functions to that update. That would make things so much easier to read. You are already halfway there, you have latin letters for the functions just change them to roman... It doesn't seem much, but reading "b37" or "bIII7" makes a huge difference to our eyes and brains.

    10 years later, hahaha: Well, we already have the option to view the changes as latin numbers. All I'm suggesting is to change those to roman for easier reading.
