dear All, I have been trying to write clean code to achieve manual beaming in 6/8 time, but my code seems (to me) to be a grubby hack, there must be a cleaner way. In one compounded beat of 6/8 time I have 4 semiquavers (or 16th notes) then in the remaining time value of 2 semiquavers, I have a

How can I use \repeat volta in a polymetric score? Removing Default_bar_line_engraver from the Score context and adding it to the Staff context seems to be the issue. When I restore Default_bar_line_engraver to the Score context then the repeats are displayed, but of course the score isn’t
