Time changes during play.

Tune was originaly in 4/4.
Decided to change it to 12/8 as it is a blues tune.
When i press the play button the first 2 measures play/show 12/8 but when the cursor hits measure 3 the 12/8 changes to 4/4.
 
What did I do wrong? And how can this be corrected?
 
Thank you.

    Check the Time  view (it's a separate view like Event View, PRV, etc). There'll be an 4/4 event that is resetting your timeline time sig at that specific bar.
     
    In case it helps you out, I wrote about my adventures with editing time sigs mid-project:

    If you do a lot of copy-pasting, you can end up pasting superfluous tempo and meter/key changes along with clips. Use Copy Special and uncheck them to prevent that in the future and have the initial tempo and meter/key pertain through the whole project.

    Rather than change to 12/8, I find it much easier to stick with 4/4, but set the snapping to 8th triplets (or sometimes 16th triplets).
