Hi Johannes,
I don't doubt that you are correct. But I was just wondering (A) if I

Generally I prefer to have the first and second time bars numbered the
same. In this way, (given 8 bar phrases ofr example) the second phrase
starts on bar 9 whether or not there is a second time bar.
All the best,

have reverted to the most recently auto-saved
