When I play a backing track that I have entered, some of the melody notes are not highlighted in red - usually bars 9 and 13 but sometimes also 5. And sometimes when I play back all of the notes will be highlighted. I checked the Notation Window Options and the box next to "highlight playback notes in red" is ticked.
Is the problem occurring in the Leadsheet Window, or Notation? I do have the same issue in the Leadsheet window (this has been reported), but the Notation Window is still highlighting notes correctly for me.
Just to say I have the same build as you on w10 And get the same results almost . In notation view each note is highlighted red as it plays,
In lead sheet view each bar has a red highlight frame around it that progresses as the song plays, but the individual notes do not highlight I had assumed that was correct. Mike
Could it be that the note has no duration? It will show up on the staff as a quarter note, for instance, but if it is being played shorter than a pizzicato then it may not show the red note.
Just a thought. Switching to the old piano roll might identify why it's not showing

The song is Red River Valley and the Style is _CMPFB3.STY. I have UltraPak 2018 (520) and I'm using Windows 10. If it isn't resolvable it isn't a huge problem as I can still make backing tracks and when playing along I'm simply aware of the notes that don't highlight.
Do you have four bars per line? I'm betting you do. My guess is the program is working so hard on creating other parts of the song that the program is not updating the screen as much as it should. How do you fix that? I don't know but I hope PG Music's programmers do know how to fix it.
One way you can test my theory is to change the number of bars displayed on each line then see if the bars that don't highlight change.
Thanks for that. My feeling is that you are totally right. My laptop has a 1 TB hard drive and 8 gb ram which is fine but the processor at 1,87 ghz isn't particularly fast so it's not keeping up. There are four bars per line but I don't know how to change that. Please let me know and I'll give it a go.
