[JW Lua] FCNoteEntry:IsPartOfTuplet/IsStartOfTuplet hangs

[Jari Williamsson]

Jan,

I misspoke. The bug is in the layer between Lua and C++, since the 
methods use a default parameter - and that default parameter is also 
incompatible with JW Lua. For now, put nil as a parameter for both 
methods, that'll solve the issue for now. Such as:

local region = finale.FCMusicRegion()
region:SetCurrentSelection()
for e in eachentry(region) do
     print("IsDotted:", e:IsDotted())
     print("IsStartOfTuplet:", e:IsStartOfTuplet(nil))
     print("IsPartOfTuplet:", e:IsPartOfTuplet(nil))
end

I'll change the syntax for these methods to more JW Lua-safe versions in 
the next beta.


Best regards,

Jari Williamsson
