Where is style Pop - Rock 12/8 in editor

[RobDMax]

I've a song for which the style Pop - Rock 12/8 works well. However, I only seem able to choose that style from the player view. If I'm editing the song there is no style Rock 12/8, in fact there is often a mis-match between the styles in the player and the list in the editor, why is that? Often I can type in the style if there is a mismatch but not this one since the editor seems not to allow the "/" character (solidus).

So, I think that's two questions, which style maps to Pop - Rock 12/8? And, why don't the two lists of styles (player and editor) match each other?

Thanks, Rob

Hi Rob,
Here's an answer to your "style-mismatch" question:

You are correct, it appears the slash "/" isn't available in the style editor. Use the hyphen instead.
"Rock 12-8" as a chart style will be understood by the player as "Pop - Rock 12/8” which will be the chart's default style.
(unless it is altered in the player settings, in which case the new settings for style and tempo will follow that chart in spite of the label "Rock 12-8" )
