Any scale without arrows is just as one would expect. D minor is still D E F G A Bb C D. Adding up or down to the scale name alters the <u>3rd, 6th and 7th</u>. Thus D upminor is D E ^F G A ^Bb ^C D. If the tonic has an arrow, it's added to every note: vD upminor = vD vE F vG vA Bb C vD.  

The key signature is divided into two regions. The sharp/flat region is as usual, except it can also have double-sharps or double-flats (e.g. Db minor has Bbb). The arrow region consists of up to two stacks, a '''quadruple stack''' for the tonic, 2nd 4th and 5th, and a '''triple stack''' for the 3rd, 6th and 7th. Both stacks always have the exact same shape. The lowest arrow in the quadruple stack always indicates the tonic. The triple stack's lowest arrow indicates the 3rd, and its highest arrow indicates the 7th. Thus it's quite easy to deduce the tonic. Note that C downmajor and vA upminor have different key signatures.
