[JW Lua] RGP Lua 0.59 Released

Sorry for my lack of clarity. I have created a better version of that script that steps through all the parameters of simple and complex time signatures in the selection. It still fails on GetGroupElementBeatDuration in verified CompositeBottom measures, even if they are registered as having more than one group with at least one element. Sample musx and lua files attached.
