Using R/T Style only.
I know we've covered this before, but the 2010.5 marketing video seems to imply that typing "T[number]" in the Current Chord Being Typed In box allows the tempo to change from that point on.
But typing in a number changed the tempo for the entire song.
And that's not what I want.
Using Bar Settings (F5) was no help either.
Edit
STOP! Holy crap! IT DID WORK! This is so cool!
The tempo does change, but the number in the little tempo window does not reflect the change.
That should be fixed.

Yes, it would be nice to have the dashboard indicator indicate the Tempo change.
But the Change Tempo at Bar does indeed work.
Most noobs don't realize that, if you want to change the Tempo for only one Bar, or a small number of bars, such as in trying to invoke a ritardondo or accelerando - that you have to change the Tempo back to the original setting again in the first Bar after the last Tempo change.
But the only indicator we have at the Chord Grid page would be those little red outlines around the Bar Number at this time - and those outlines cover ANY of the possible Bar Changes, such that it is rather hard on the memory cells when you call up a project you put together months ago and can't remember exactly what changes at bar you made way back when.
I should really start taking advantage of the Memo as I go along...

Oops.
Yeah, it does change.
I must be getting senile.
At least I admit when I make a mistake.
But the tempo change kept on going when the song returned to the beginning.
How do I change it back, at that point, to the slower tempo?
Thanks.

Put a Bar Setting at the first bar that has the original tempo in it.

FirstBassman, what happened to you is very common when you first experiment with changing the tempo. Now you can help the next person who needs it.
