When one moves through the Speedy editing frame with the left and right arrow keys, one finally encounters a position that coincides with none of the notes. This is shown in the example:

I don't know its official function, but I am glad of it as it prevents the frame from jumping automatically to the next bar after entering notes to the full value of the bar one is in. Could this actually be its purpose? Or is that something more arcane?

That explains it. Thanks David and Motet. I've wondered about it for years. But I do seem to remember this position not appearing so one does jump immediately to the next measure. Maybe that was in earlier versions. Yet...

I don't use Speedy for input and was referring only to the editing frame and arrow keys. I do remember it jumping directly to the next measure from the last note in the frame but not the circumstances. Maybe it will come up again.
