Hi,
Two things not working as they should:
1- to delete a range of measures, selecting them and hitting Delete should work. It doesn't.
2- in Playback, there is a tempo setting-- but it has no effect: quarter = 20 and quarter = 200 (or any other number) play back in exactly the same tempo.
Suggestions?
This is PrintMusic 2011, on iMac, OS 10.5.8.
Thanks,
Ch.S.

There are several ways to select a region.jsb wrote:...1- to delete a range of measures, selecting them and hitting Delete should work. It doesn't...
How are you selecting the region?
To make sure that the entire measure is selected, double-click the measure.
Then Shift-click at the other end of the region you want to delete.
To delete the selected measures, hit the Backward Delete key (= the Backspace key), not the Forward Delete key.
My first guess would be that the culprit is an expression with playback effect "Tempo".jsb wrote:...2- in Playback, there is a tempo setting-- but it has no effect: quarter = 20 and quarter = 200 (or any other number) play back in exactly the same tempo...
Without having an actual .mus document to examine we can only guess.
Could you attach a small .mus sample document that shows the problem?
Before you can upload a .mus document here, you must compress it, e. g. as a .zip file.

Double-clicking to select was the answer.
For my playback problem, I found the answer by experimenting: if I put a tempo marking in at the beginning via set-up wizard, something like "Allegro (quarter = 96)", it overrides anything I can do in Playback window to adjust playback tempo.
This seems to me a bad feature! For "proofreading", I would often like to listen to a passage slowly, even if it's meant to be played fast... Boo-hoo!
