Re: [Finale] Midmeasure, but only for so long a measure

Daniel,
FinMac 2011. I just tried your experiment with a 12/1 measure and, yes, you're 
quite right, it is a bug. While I can understand how something like this could 
slip by the beta-testers, it could potentially be annoying to those of us 
engraving, say, Gregorian Chant without bar lines. I would write a short note 
to Make Music' Complaints Department ... but we should not hold our 
collective breaths on this one; it will quite likely be pretty low on Make 
Musics To-Do list!
MfG,
Fiedler

 for most users, but for someone working in early or contemporary music who 
 uses such large metres (if only as an invisible backdrop a non-metric or 
 polymetric section) this could affect the layout planning.
