did you read my last post? I found my answer. he You just go to place you want to make the start of a bar, then hit ctrl+m. If you use ct you have to bypass first. then you just type which bar which beat this place you want it to be. The previous tempo is adjusted acordingly. chi ----- Original Message ----- From: HF To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, October 18, 2007 8:35 AM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: How to Snap the time ruler The only way I could think of is to insert a measure. Not sure that this is what you are looking for but try that. If you ever figure out how to do what you want, please let us know since I would like to know myself.

I'm making music for a short film, and there are 3 cues. I'm using same instrumentation for all 3 cues, so I'd like to work within one project. There for, where the cue starts, a new bar should start. The cakewalk manual said something like if you snap the time ruler, the bar will start on the time. However, how would you do that with ct? thanks, Chi
