Description

Issue type

Engraving bug (incorrect score rendering)

Description with steps to reproduce
  1. Create a file with 4/4 time and two staves.
  2. Change the second staff (only) to 12/8.
  3. On the 12/8 staff, add a rest of any type. It autofills the rest of the bar like 3/2 instead of 12/8.
  4. Undo that and add a note of any type. It autofills the rest of the bar like 12/8 (i.e., as designed).
