Default Re: Upbeat Measure acting funny

Hi Andy,

Thanks for the pix - it shows the problem exactly!

I see that the 1/8 is selected (it's blue), which means that when you make any settings in the dialog box, they will be applied to that selected time signature/measure. You'll notice in the dialog box shot that the meter is set for 5/4. It will need to be set to 1/8.

Of course Composer should behave better and have set the meter to 1/8 for you, and that bug is indeed in the "to do" list. For now, you'll just need to be aware that you'll need to set that meter yourself in this situation.

ttfn,
Sherry
