If you can figure out a good way to fix it, be my guest. The problem is that the split-and-tied notes are new events that were just created. They didn't exist before, while the notes that did exist and were part of the selection are gone now. There are probably a good dozen examples of the same kind of thing happening. Whenever you interpret notes, any notes whose durations changed are no longer selected. Whenever you do anything that causes rests to be recalculated, newly-generated rests are not part of the selection. The route to fixing all of this sort of thing is to add the newly created stuff into the selection, but I've always had a niggling feeling in the back of my mind that things would start to go wrong if we did that, and we probably never did that for some reason that was obvious at the time, years ago. And then at another extreme, it used to be that when you selected two notes and added a slur between them, the newly-created slur would be selected. I think it was the only thing selected. Because slurs are indications, which are a kind of event that spans some amount of time, this was causing me a lot of irritation when I was hand editing an imported MIDI file where I had to go and add several hundred slurs. The slur's start time was registering as the beginning point of new selections made by the keyboard, and this threw everything off. To cure all that, I modified Rosegarden to stop selecting the stupid slurs after creating them. > The split and tie works well, but they are not selected. > Notes that are note split and tied remain selected.
