Changing Time Signature within a song

Hello smart Logic people,
To be specific: how do I change from 4/4 to 2/4 for one measure then back to 4/4?
I've found great answers on how to change the meter but not how to change a meter within a song.
I apologize if this has been answered -- but I was unable to find it after an extensive search.
Thanks!

Disregard this post. I stumled upon the answer! I was only able to do it by going to the measure location I wanted to change and changing the meter in the TRANSPORT WINDOW. The Global area changed the entire song.

How do I set time signature?

I've finally decided to use this copy of Logic 8.0.2 that I bought and installed a few years ago. I'm moving from using Sibelius to compose and the interface has me a bit baffled.
I'd like to set the time signature from to 3/4 for a new project, but I can't find time signatures in the score offerings. I know it's probably simple, but I can't see it.
Can you tell me how to set the piece to 3 beats per bar?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
this is done in the Global Tracks, which you can configure to your needs. right click on you global tracks header to configure them. Expand the appropriate sub-branch of this global tracks to find the time signature (of course, by default it's where you see the 4/4). Click on it (doubleclick) to change it.

How do I change text attributes within one text box in Motion 3?

I am trying to change text attributes within one text box in Motion 3, but am only able to change the font/size for the entire box. Is there a way to change the attributes to individual lines of text within a text box without creating an entirely new one or using the "Lower Third" text effect?
How do I create (two different) multiple colors, fonts, bold, italic, underline in one text box within Final Cut Studio Motion (FCP, FCS)

Thank you! You saved me hours of tinkering around with multiple text boxes. It seemed like it should be something pretty elementary. It didn't help that I am not familiar with proper terminology, so thank you for defining glyph.
Cheers,

Can't change Time Signature before Bar 1

I have a song that I want to have a 2 bar count in of 7/8, then go into 13/16 starting on bar 1. Somehow the count-in time sig got changed to 18/8, and everytime I try clicking before bar 1, and re-setting it to 7/8, it just stays on 18/8. I can't figure out why it won't let me change it. I can change the time sig on bar 1 and every thing after it, but not the count-in. Is there somewhere special I'm supposed set that count-in time signature? Maybe there's something I've hit that locks the count-in time signature?

As a workaround you could just start your 7/8 count on bar 1, and change to 13/16 at bar 3. Then after you get it recorded you can move it back to bar 1. I've tried to do what you're trying on my settup and can confirm that it does not work.

How can I change the font within a chart in an ibook

I wanted to compose a song in Garageband in a time signature 3/4. I couldn't see any setting which lets me set it. Also I wanted to know what all time signatures do Garage Band support ?E.g. 2/3/, 4/4, 6/8,7/8 ...Would really appriciate if someone can help.

As far as I'm aware GarageBand for iPad only supports 4/4 time, at least in it's present form.

How can I change the color in this "pieces"

Hello guys, I'm new in the forum and I'm searching for help.
I'm using a free template that I downloaded from
the internet but I'm having a small problem.
When I put the logo that I want use in the template, the color is not the original one,
after some minutes trying to discover how I could change it to the original version of the logo, I found an option on "fill" with a color that I could change..
the problem is that when I change the color, all the logo changes in the same time, so I created 2 logos.. one of then only with the dark color and the other with the red color
so with this method I could change both colors on this "fill" option and all would be okai.
the problem is that both of the logos are changing in the same time.
I need to change the X to RED and the Moto to Black
Another problem that I have is : the little pieces of the logo that come all togheter, they are all black.. and i need to change it to the right color.
cause the text are in one color and the pieces are all black.

I did it, but i saw that Fill effect is a little "Shadow" behing the text... just for a small white line... I'm almost done with this intro, now I'm trying to find out how can I change the color from the X and MOTO
cause when I change the color, both changes, and this can't happen.
I need the X red and the Moto dark...
I made 2 compositions ... one with just the X X red.. and another with just Moto in dark color... but I don't know how to put this 2 compositions in 1 composition.

Trying to figure out time signature of a piece of music to recreate in GB

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to figure out the time signature of a particular piece of music, as I do a lot of work with this particular piece of music and I am attempting to migrate over to GarageBand on a Mac from FL Studio 6 on a PC.
This piece is the theme music to the British science fiction series Doctor Who, created in 1963 by the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. This is a classic and timeless piece of music and I'm prone to doing quite a few recreations and remixes based on this theme.
Wikipedia is hosting a condensed version of the theme at the following URL:
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/5d/DoctorWho_themeexcerpt.ogg
I'm sorry about the strange slight pitch bending up and down... must be some kind of copyright thing. The real piece remains at a constant pitch. I would post mine but I'm sure that it's some kind of copyright violation.
From what I've read online, the original theme was done in a 4/4 time signature at 140 bpm. A good friend of mine insists that it's easier to do in a 4/3 time signature. In FL Studio back on the PC, I did everything in 4/4, but both 4/4 and 4/3 worked fine for me as far as easily laying out the bassline in simple "dum-de-dums" and "diddly-dums" but no matter what time signature and no matter how far I zoom in, I cannot get the correct note lengths for the bassline in GarageBand. I've tried 4/4, which is the most logical of the time signatures, but the notes never fit the correct "dum-de-dum" pattern timing-wise and I can't do a "diddly-dum" because it won't let me divide one section (bar? beat?) into three notes as is required for the "diddly" of the "diddly-dum." (I must sound like a madman referring to the bassline notes as "dum-de-dums" and "diddly-dums," but hey, it works for me.)
Anyway, if someone else could perhaps come in and tell me what I'm doing wrong or another way of configuring GarageBand so that I can put this bassline in properly, I would be most grateful to you!
Thanks so much,
Danny

Danny,
The theme to Doctor Who is in 12/8. In music theory, there's no such thing as a 12th note, the notation and nomenclature is all based on things being divisible by four. So for the diddly-dum feel to happen, you have to give the beat to a quarter note plus another eighth note -- we call it a dotted quarter note, and now you have three eighth notes per beat so you can go diddly. So, since you can't call the time signature 12/dotted quarter, you call it 12/8 and go faster. Make sense? Anyway, for GB's purposes, all you need to know is that you'll get that feel by choosing 12/8.

How do I change my signature & other text on my outgoing e mails sent from my mobile?

When I bought my Blackberry Torch 9800 (2 years ago), I (somehow) managed to add some text giving my name, & my 2 business websites so that it appeared at the bottom of all outgoing e mails. At the same time, I deleted the wording that said something like 'message sent from my Blackberry'.
I now need to change the message (& also want to re-instate the fact that it comes from my Blackberry as this explains a brief reply when necessary'.)
I don't think I did it from any settings on the mobile. I think it was done 'somehow' on my main computer.
Any ideas??
Thanks

How do I change time axis labels?

I have a few data plots that show some parameter on the y-axis versus time on the x-axis. The data spans several months (sometimes years). Currently my x-axis shows date labels for the left and right side of the plot and one value inbetween (happens to be 12-31-09). How can I set the axis format to show a label for each month or each major grid interval? Anything would be an improvement over just one date label.
Thanks

Try right-clicking directly on the axis label and select your desired style. You must click right on the label text or you will not get the correct pop-up menu.
