Weird interaction of paper variables, lyrics, rehearsal marks and span bars

Hi All, The behaviour I am seeing is very strange. I have done my best to reduce it to as little code as possible (which is why it looks a bit strange), but I can't find anything more I can remove without making the problem suddenly disappear. Please accept my apologies that this is not a very

Re: Yet another out of page issue

Thank you, it works. After some testing it turned out that you need to include \bar "" somewhere. Without it, longer cadenza will go outside of the page, also using a \break in this case seems to be a mistake too. Here is your fix in action: http://i.imgur.com/QyTwSNF.png - can't hide accidentals

Yet another out of page issue

I had this problem before, where music just went out of the page. It turned out that some of the bar checks failed. But here it shouldn't be the case, as I'm using bar checks and the place where it breaks is under cadenza anyway. For the sake of simplicity I skipped the beginning. It supposed to

Hello, Andrew. I am new here, just jumped on the bus when it was already moving. Didn't see the problems you list yet, but I could see from the tone on this thread that you are a person that everbody likes and respects here. This kind of behaviour is really upsetting and it happens anywhere

Revamping Issue 4068 (was: Getting a new computer)

Hi David, list, I've cherry-picked commit 7f34e80b8d8bebfa4b1f3721a12718b04d7e02f4 and I think I understand what it does (I'm new to python re but feel rather comfortable with perl). You write you consider that rule too sloppy. I'm probably not experienced enough w/r to lilypond code to see

Hi, is there something like try ... except in lilypond. What I want to achieve is some failure tolerance in ly files. I want to load some fonts or include files and if they don't exist, it should just be skipped without stopping the compilation (perhaps a warning could be printed). Is that
