2020-03-19 Thread Kevin Barry
Hi Sami, I think your alignment problem arises because you moved the barline engraver from the score context to the staff context. Each staff doesn't seem to "know" about the alignment of bars in other staves so it cannot align with them. Since it seems you need different bar types in different

Hi Robert, Welcome to the Pond! I don't have a Mac myself. Maybe someone who does will be able to help. Can I ask how you are executing lilypond? If you are running it from the command line you could try enabling more verbose logging by passing the "-l DEBUG" option and sending us the output.

Hi Richard, It looks like whatever way partcombine creates voices is not preserving your overrides. At a guess, I'd say it combines the first bar in both parts into a single voice (including your overrides), then when it needs to split for the second bar, it creates two voices that no longer

Where are you setting EDITOR to gvim? Is it possible that you have set it somewhere like bashrc or bash_profile that would be picked up by bash, but maybe not by Gnome? I can't remember where to modify Gnome's environment so my question may be stupid.
