BUG? Transposing & 8va & Enharmonic

A sequence submitted to 8va. That same sequence copied to the next bar/measure (including the 8va). Then a tranposition of minor second upwards of that copied sequence. One of the notes under the 8va jumps to a flat (G-flat). Applying the ENH gives me a wrongly notated note: resulting in a note with a sharp as if it wasn't under the 8va (so many ledger lines!!!). OK it is the right note value, but the wrong notation.

Maybe this is helpful as a technique or shortcut (or maybe I'm not understanding your point):
When moving selected notes, Shift-arrow moves notes by half-step. If you shift up, they will be marked with #, and vice versa.
If they are marked sharp, but you want flat, get there from other direction by moving up 2, then down 1.
e.g. to get Ab from a G, sh-arrowUp to G# then again to A, then sh-arrowDn 1x to Ab
(This is easier to do than to write.)

David you didn't understand the message. Later today I will show you how it looked like.
