I am still concerned about this since Rob reported seeing a message saying "No MIDI events captured". I do not receive any such message when I select some notes in the Data window and then click "Capture selection as...". I instead get a messages like "Converting selected text to sound-object prototype" and "Writing 8 sound-objects" although both messages disappear too quickly to be read. Rob, have you had any further luck with the Capture feature? Thanks.
