I'm curious about how others do this. Do you always use layer 1 if there's no second layer?
For me the only exception is to accomodate ties across barlines (layer two ties across while layer one ceases). In organ music, you often need as many as three layers--sometimes all four--to manage ties across successive barlines in different (musical) voices.
I feel strongly enough about this that when I accidentally enter a measure in layer two, I go back and switch it back. The reason I go to this trouble is to keep to a minimum the switching of layers when it is time to add expressions and articulations.
