David, I'm sorry, but I do have the feeling there's something wrong with
your file. I tried a multi-key signature file as you described, and
everything worked fine.
Maybe you should try to import the music into a clean default file. Maybe
that helps?
Good luck, Minke

Subject: [Finale] independant time signature woes
Dear collected wisdom
I've arranged a song by Debussy. Vocal part in 4/4, accompaniment in 12/8.
I've given the vocal staff an independant time signature. Notation looks
good, but ...
1) playback is a mess (I don't mind, but still, it would have been nice to
have an aural check)
2) articulations have to be attched one by one, as select regions does not
behave properly (ok, I did)
3) smart shapes (crescendo, decrescendo) are almost impossible to
position; what I see is not what I get, mouse and cursor go litterally in
different directions when I try to move a crescendo sign.
Am I doing something wrong, or is working with independant time signatures
simply not the thing to do?
A solution would be to notate all in 12/8 after all, and use tuplets with
hidden brackets and numbers for the vocal staff. Is there a way to change
the notation more or less automatically?
Any help appreciated (I'm on the digest, so my warm thanks might take a
while).
