octave shift > unexpected result
I am trying octave shifts via CTRL+DownArrow (CDA) on linked staves, one treb clef, one TAB and getting unexpected results in example attached.
1) select note 2 meas 1 on TAB. Hit CDA. Result is fret 10 B string which is same frequency as fret 5 E string => unexpected.
2) select note 2 meas 2 on treb clef staff. Hit CDA. Result is fret 2 G string, 1 octave lower => expected.
What is going on? My conclusion is that linked staffs are NOT TRULY symmetrical. (assuming that the notes can actually be produced on the instruments)

oops - simple typo
2) should be, select note 2, meas 1 treb clef staff ........
This is normal behaviour for TAB note entry:

[Ctrl]UpArrow and [Ctrl]DownArrow move the note to the string above/below but keep the pitch the same.
I looked at your 'InnocentRoad_4a_Chorus' attachment and it looks strange to me:
Maybe that's why you tried to drop the TAB an octave?
Regards.
