well, you have to choose Edit Directives after right clicking, so it is
easier just to hit the space bar which will re-calculate the whole
measure rest.
I have realized that we have a good opportunity to make the Denemo
display communicate what the whole measure rest is better even than the
typeset score: I have fixed the display so it now tells exactly how much
rest is meant by that centered-whole-note-rest. So now it is clear if
you change a time signature before a whole measure rest that the whole
measure rest is wrong.

this is true except if the whole measure rest is at the end, where
partial measures are allowed....
