When you explode staves, measure-attached smart shapes do not get exploded onto 
the new staves. I don't know why; they just don't, and never have for as long 
as I have been using the program. You have to copy them separately after 
exploding, using the filter and the selection tool copy function.

However, if you are using my method, and just extract the voiced part, all the 
measure-attached smart shapes are intact.
