sections copy spontaneously
Posted by Ben Moore - 11 Jan 11:13PM
Here's a weird one. I'm cueing and formatting an orchestra score, hopping between the various parts and the full score. Somehow, every so often, I discover a whole section of music has spontaneously copied itself and is repeated adjacent to the original section of music. For instance measures 38-43 would simply repeat before continuing on with what should be measure 44 (but is now numbered 49) causing a big mess. At no point am I copying or pasting sections of my score. Any ideas what might be going on? Thanks in advance! Ben

Using the 'Paste as cue' function IS 'copying and pasting'. I think we must assume that when attempting this you did the wrong sort of copy/paste by accident.

Alt-click will instantly copy whatever is selected to the current mouse cursor position.

Thanks Robin. That may be what I'm doing inadvertently.
