Hi all, I'm not sure if this has been documented. Copy/paste doesn't seem to work reliably with independent time signatures in use.
If I copy a section (either copy or copy to clip file) whose time signatures are independent and then attempt to paste or insert that copy elsewhere (even with the same time signatures in the destination), only some material will paste. (All items are set to copy in the options.) The parts that will copy vary in a way that I can't follow. For example, part one is in 4/4; parts two to four are in 5/4, part five in 7/4. If I copy measure 1 part #1 and paste it elsewhere, the result is blank (sometimes a smart shape or time signature does get copied). If I copy measure 1 part #2, same thing. If I copy parts #3 or #4, it works. Part #5, no results. Different measures in different parts work or don't; I can't see a consistency. Drag-and-drop copying works. I can use drag-and-drop copying until the score is off-screen, but since 10% is the smallest reduction allowed, even though I have 44 inches of horizontal screen space available, it's not enough. I'm forced to re-enter the material by hand. Clues? Solutions?
