New problem! When I change styles in the middle of an arrangement, it's changing the previous style to a "silence" in two or sometimes three instruments displayed. What "switch" (Ha! Ha!) am I not throwing right?
Win10pro, Dellxps27, BIAB build 465
Having fun!

Johnny -
Are those instruments defined in the style you are changing to? Not all styles use all instruments available. Some styles just have a bass, drum, and guitar, leaving the other two tracks silent.
If you just load the second style, what instruments do you see.
Or are you saying that when you put in the second style, the first style doesn't play those tracks anymore during that part of the song? If that's the case, please let us know which styles you are using so we can see what is going on.

Also, just checking, you are doing this by pressing F5 at the place where the new style starts, and selecting a different style in the F5 dialog box, yes?

Yes, John! I'm inputing _mylilly.sty in the middle of the song. But I originally begin with _moonriver.sty . . . As soon as I put in the _mylilly.sty the _moonriver.sty parts change. I get "silence" on 2 sometimes 3 instruments. I can reboot, but to no avail. Hence, the problem shows up when I input the .sty change into the middle of the song.
And NO, Matt. I'm not using F5 for anything. I use "bar settings".
Thanks guys, JZ
Having fun!

Good one, Johnny. F5 is Bar Settings.

O that's funny, Matt!! I've been "right clikking" on a bar, then picking "bar settings" with my mouse! Turns out I've been doing a lot of extra work! Ha!
Having fun!

Seriously, it might actually be a better way. If you let a little time go by, you might not remember the keyboard shortcut but you can always find your way via the menu.

_moonriver.sty is a midi style whereas _mylilly.sty is a RealTracks style. If you choose another style that is similar in style to _mylilly.sty but is a midi style, then your song will generate normally. At least it does for me here.

As I understand it, I don't think you can mix and match MIDI and RealTracks on the same track, even by changing styles at a certain bar.
Until they can make that work, there should at least be a warning to indicate that it won't work properly.
The entirety of the track needs to be either all MIDI or all Real.

I concur with John. Further, I've had difficulty changing from one type to the other when the style seems to override my selection.

Well, I tried that "fix" and it worked!! Now, it's all midi or all RT's! That will be fixed in the future, I'm sure. JZ
