I'm not sure how you are going about selecting and highlighting a single bar. In BIAB, the only way that I know to highlight one bar is to drag the mouse across two bars and, keeping the mouse button down, dragging it back to the first bar.

...The behaviour you describe sounds like the mouse button is effectively being double-clicked (double-clicking will cause BIAB to play from the current position).


Sorry I should have been clearer. I meant to say I click on a bar to select it (not highlight it).
Left mouse, single click.

But BIAB has a mind of its own and is sometimes trigger happy.
I just opened a song now and left-clicked randomly on four different bars. On the fourth SINGLE click BIAB started to generate and play!
You can imagine how frustrating this can be, especially
knowing the you can't immediately stop BIAB once it begins this operation. frown

Lead sheet mode is not fully "what you see is what you get". If you want to see what the printout looks like, it's best to use Print Preview. If I understand you correctly, by exiting the printer dialogue box and going back to Lead Sheet Mode, you are effectively closing down the "I'm going to print" routine. This means that when you click on "Print" again, you are starting up this routine from scratch again.


Yes I realize that Lead Sheet mode is not fully WYSIWYG.
That's why I would always choose Print Preview after going into Lead Sheet mode.

And more recently, after being advised to (I believe it was you actually) I started to print to .pdf to get an even more accurate view of what the print out would look like.

Well yesterday when I was trouble-shooting the problem, I went into the Printer settings and saw that the Printer had been changed to PDF995.

I had not changed this myself manually.
BIAB made this change!
I have since changed it back to my printer.

But I am awaiting BIAB to do another intercept. frown
