I just tried your ties issue again, and still, using Win98se and Fin2004a, the tie in a 2nd layer points to the right from the final note, even with material entered in another layer. (You are hitting the = key and not ctrl-= aren't you?)

The same with rhythmic alignment -- it works as I expect it to. When I entered additional rhythmic values (e.g. quarters in layer 1 and 8ths/16ths in layer2) they lined up properly.

The grey issue is definitely a bummer -- you shouldn't have to adjust your monitor each time you switch applications, and there isn't any way in the program to adjust it that I can see.

On Win98se, Fin2004a, ties entered onto notes at the end of a measure in
speedy still head off into space to the right waiting for the next note.


I notice this while editing measures which already have notes in them. For
example adding something in Layer 2 to a measure containing Layer one.


I see a clearly distinct different color for the grey of other layers --
I have no trouble differentiating between one layer and another in
speedy entry.


I wonder if it could be a graphics card/monitor issue. But why grey? We have
custom colors for layers. Why not just continue to use those in Speedy as
well?


When I re-enter, if I have a lot of
shorter note values, they get bunched up and are harder to differentiate
until I exit that measure and then reenter it.  But I haven't had a
problem with them being placed in their proper rhythmic positions.


Try entering Layer two based on what is already entered in Layer one.
Nothing lines up rhythmically until you exit Speedy.
