I was just going to write in about this since I just upgraded from 2.19.15
to 2.19.63 and this is breaking my existing scores.
This command:
#(set-default-paper-size "legal" 'landscape)
Used to set the paper size to legal, lay it out in landscape, and rotate it.
Now, it sets the paper size to legal and lays it out in landscape, but does
not rotate it.
So, what is the command to rotate the page?
\version "2.19.63"
#(set-default-paper-size "legal")
\book {
\bookOutputSuffix "legal-portrait"
\relative c' {
\mark \markup { "Letter portrait" }
c1
}
}
#(set-default-paper-size "legal" 'landscape)
\book {
\bookOutputSuffix "legal-landscape"
\relative c' {
\mark \markup { "Letter landscape" }
c1
}
}
Thanks,
