Description
Describe the bug
Using tied notes in voice 2 makes the cursor jump to the wrong measure in note entry
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Use a empty score with 4/4 time signature
- Enter some quarter notes into Voice 2 at a measure 15 in the score
- Now go back to the first measure enter 3 quarter notes into Voice 2
- Now select the tie option, so the quarter note at beat 3 gets tied to the quarter note on beat 4
- The cursor now jumps to measure 15 where it will continue to enter notes
If you don't tie the last note in the first measure, note entry in voice 2 just continues in the second measure.
Expected behavior
Behaviour should be as without ties, just continue to the next measure for entering notes.
Screenshots
See this forum issue for a demo in 3.6, which I reproduced in MU4.

Research direction
No source file or test is named. Start by reproducing the issue in an empty 4/4 score, entering Voice 2 notes in measure 15 and then tying the third and fourth notes in measure 1. Trace Voice 2 note-entry cursor movement after the tie; done means entry continues into the next measure instead of jumping to measure 15.
