Quoting Geoff Horton <address@hidden>:
The followup question is obvious, but I leave it to you to think about it and see if you get any further.I've been wondering for some time if the distinction is a helpful one, but I suspect changing it now would involve too much internal tinkering, not to mention breaking of old scores. Geoff
Actually, it used to be the same command for setting both types of properties, which did cause quite some confusion. However, the distinction between the two kinds of properties is often fairly arbitrary and many properties that earlier were context properties have now been converted to object properties (and probably the other way around as well). /Mats
