Thanks, that clears it up. I was expecting a dialog pop... now I know to pay attention to the status line. > I've typeset three of the bars in the attached, this has shown up a > bug > with the newly introduced organ template and with adding voices (they > don't get the instrument sound automatically). Here's another bug (or at least feature request): the file you sent me was v8 but the version I have can only open v7 files. However the GUI only tells 'Load of file... failed', not what the problem was. For that I had to launch Denemo from the command line. It was easy enough to work around once I knew what the issue was... the bug IMO is that the dialog should have told me that the file version was incompatible. > > > > > > > > There's an example of keyboard polyphony in the Examples.
