If I do it in a new file, it works. The file where I was trying to do it did *not* work, so something else must be involved. I was probably not careful enough in the way I entered things (I am still not happy with the new method of measure expressions vs. note expressions). I cannot see what is different -- maybe I misplaced my pedal up symbols so that they were overlapping. But if I'd done that, then the upper notes would not have been sustained, so that makes no sense. The key point here: the UI is not very well suited to doing any of this with any precision. Otherwise, I would have gotten what I wanted on the first try. -- David W.
