Re: Repost: LP 2.24.0 segno repeat where coda break is in the middle of a repeat volta block

2023-01-24 Thread Laurie Savage
Thank you, Kenneth, for posting this, you beat me to it. I'm editing lead
sheets for a couple of ensembles and have run into the same issue. I have
used the segno structure for the repeat and inserted \coda manually. I
couldn't work out how to automate it with the \alternatives { { } { } }
structure for the piece I've attached.

 \repeat segno 2 {  ... notes ...  \coda ... more notes ... } \section {
... notes ... } \section \sectionLabel "Coda" { ... notes ...}

Hi David;

  Thank you so much for reminding me that there are ways to reduce the
size of the pdf, decreasing the size to reduce the pain of downloading
a huge attachment.

I displayed your PDF at 60% size, and took screenshots of the pages.
The structure of the score is still plainly visible, but five pages
like this would take about 750KB to post instead of 14MB: of great
benefit to many.

I won't post them here, but I can send you pages privately.

Cheers,
David.
