Default How Can I Add a Measures/clicks after tempo mapped????

Okay, so I have a project that was recorded without a click (on purpose) and with crazy meter/tempo changes. Now we are adding strings to it and so the producer asked me to add a click to it. No problem. I love beat detective. So I went through the project and about every three measures changes between 3/4, 4/4, 5/4...etc. etc. (this song is just crazy that way). I get to the end and I realize that I goofed in three places towards the beginning. There are three measures in different places that are stretched out as one click that should be 3-5 clicks. I can't figure out how to just add clicks to those measures without throwing off all of the meter/time changes that I have already done. I really don't want to start all over, it took a couple hours since it was a crazy piece. What would you do?

Print the click and then nudge it over. Then you can add whatever ones you want.

Good idea. I was given that suggestion. However, I am wanting to avoid a work around. I actually realized that I can cut and paste the events in the ruler bar. So I have figured it out. I cut the events in the ruler from right after the hole on to the end of the piece. Then I get the measure that was the hole correct, then I paste on spot where the bar continued before. I have discovered that before pasting, it is important that you select all of the bar events that you want to paste back on.
