Hi folks,
I am writing out a piece which is 3/4, but has two measures in 4/4.
i am right clicking on the appropriate measure, going to bar settings, changing the 0 to 4, and pressing ok.
The measure gets underlined in red, and when i check it, the setting for 4 beats in a measure is still there, but when i play the song, it just continues to play all measures in 3/4.
someone, please tell me what i am doing wrong!!!
thank you...
frustrated...

Did you regenerate the song after changing the measures? If not then nothing would change.
When you are at the checkout line and they ask if you found everything say "Why, are you hiding stuff?"

I'm presuming that you are using a 3/4 style. In BiaB you cannot add a beat to a bar, you can only take one away. There are two possible solutions: 1: Add a bar at the point you want make the change to 4/4, then either make this bar 1 beat long (you will have a bar of 3/4 and a bar of 1/4), or make this and the preceding bar 2 beats long each. Both ways will give you a total of 4 beats over the two bars. 2: Use a 4/4 style and change to 3 beats per bar at the start using F5 bar settings and then change it to 4/4 at the required bar.

The general rule VideoTrack is solving is that if BIAB uses both 3/4 and 4/4 in the same song, you must start in 4/4.

Another way to achieve your requirement is to use a 3/4 style for the song and use bar settings (F5) at the required bar and change to a 4/4 style, then back to a 3/4 style at the next required bar. However, if the styles don't match well (instrumentation etc) it can often sound as though you changed bands for those bars.
