Ok, here's the second one.

Test pt.II, moving a region earlier and back on timeline, one time signature change.

---
edit: Regions with items and moves with ripple editing show the same behavior as in these two screencaps with empty regions and no ripple. Maybe another thing with added time signature changes after the region? Also, what happens to the items during these moves may deserve further study. Somebody?

OK. The region move earlier on timeline moves the tempo/time signature marker correctly with it. Measure 4 which used to be 4/4 120 is still so with the help of the added time sig marker. Measure 5 (now empty) is affected by the same marker. Measure 6 has now a new tempo/time signature marker, same values as the region had before the move, so nothing changed for the measure itself. As far as keeping everything in project as it were, apart from the actual region move, I see this as correct.

When the region is moved back to the original position, couple of odd things happen though. A redundant tempo/time signature marker is left where the region was...it has the same values as the start of the project already has. Also, the tempo/time signature marker at measure 6 is changed to different values, tempo still the same but time sig now from earlier part, not what would be defined by the region (with its marker) nor what was valid before the moves.

Further thoughts, notes?
