Again, the drop down on the right does nothing.  I can set it to
anything from 1 to 8; the pattern is always one 4/4 measure.

Furthermore, the help says this:
"The combobox "Grid Resolution" will modify the resolution so to help
adding notes: it's possible to set grid for 4,8, 16, 32, 64 beats per
bar and their 'three beats' bars indicated as 4T, 8T, 16T and 32T. You
can also set the number of bars actually played by the "pattern size"
menu on the right (1 to 8)."

I can't quite decipher this.  The way it reads, I would need to use
the drop down on the LEFT (the Grid Resolution) to get 3/4 time (or a
"three beats" bar, using their language).
