[JW Lua] Reading measures from parts

I haven't tried it, but maybe you should use SetCurrent() instead of
SwitchTo().  I think switching only sets the focus.

Subject: [JW Lua] Reading measures from parts

Jari,

I was trying to read the part-specific measure attribute for the music
spacing issue discussed on Facebook.
Time signature based music spacing in slash style measures works fine now,
but only in the score not in the parts.

How do I get to the part measures ? I always get the measures from the score
only.
Probably I need to tell FCMeasure that we are in a certain part, but I
though part:SwitchTo() would do that.

local parts = finale.FCParts()
parts:LoadAll()
for p in each(parts) do
     p:SwitchTo()
     if p:IsPart() then     -- check that it's actually a part, and not 
the score
            local measure=finale.FCMeasure()
            measure:Load(1)    -- should load measure 1 from the part, 
but actually loads it from the score
            ....
     end
end

Any hints ?

Jan
