Giuliano,
I'm not sure about smart shapes, but copy-paste should work this way:
- uncheck independent time sig in the source staff and don't worry
about to few or to many beats in the measure(s);
- copy;
- check independent time again (for not to forget....);
- uncheck independent time sig in the target staff;
- paste (again: don't worry as above)
- check ind time again.

So far tranquillo ogni turbato core,
Et or di nobil ira et or d'amore
Poss'infiammar le più gelate menti.

Hello---I have and have had the same problem every time I use the
Indipendent Time feature (still working with 2006, by the way).
Also, Indipendent Time always create problems with spacing and copy-
paste, in my experience.
I don't know of a solution, thus I'd be very interested in knowing
what others do in this situation.
All the best
Giuliano

Hi all,
Can anybody replicate this problem and have a solution?
I have a piece with simultaneous time signatures of 7/8, 7/8, 5/8,
3/4 and
4/4. I can't line up the smart shapes -- they won't allow
placement in
certain horizontal locations.
For example, the bottom four parts have a decrescendo. The hairpin
pulls
all the way across the 7/8 and the 4/4, but will only go to the
4th note
in the 5/8 and the 5th eighth note in the 3/4. If I pull it
further, it
jumps to the next measure. Using the nudge tool makes it go
*backwards*.
If I make them all a little shorter, then the proper ones jump
backwards.
None of them will stay reliably in place. It's not just hairpins.
I need
ossia tuplet brackets above (made with smart shapes), and they won't
stretch properly either.
I tried putting it in another measure and moving it over, but the
shape
just pops into a different shape as soon as it gets under the
measure.
Any clues what to do? Can I "unsmart" these shapes somehow?
Dennis
