i can't seem to define time sigs past the 100th measure by using the
dialogue boxes. i can do it using metatool assignment (compound as
well, also when showing different time sig than the underlying beat
groupings)
if i assign a compound time sig and then try to open up the dialogue box
to alter it, i get time sigs like 27654/16. i can change simple time
sigs (eg. 4/4 to 3/4) in the dialogue box, but then hitting okay, going
back to the score nothing changes!
this seems to only occur when measures below 100 have "do not include in
measure numbering" checked.
the trick/workaround for now seems to be to have all time sigs defined
as metatools. i normally do, but am working on a score with a huge
range of time sigs, and different beat divisions defined in almost every
bar. so i have one key set aside which is constantly being redefined
(grrrrrr).

I just tried it on Windows -- added 200 measures to a default document,
made measure 3 so that it wasn't included in measure numbers (on
Windows, the check box is Include In Measure Numbers and is checked for
all measures by default -- it has to be UNchecked to exclude a
particular measure or measures from the numbering) and then went to
measure 155 and changed the time signature with no problem.
so either I don't understand your problem or it doesn't happen on
Windows or I didn't do it properly to check it.
