Comment #5 on issue 146 by lemzwerg: bar counters for normal bars
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=146
It's simply not implemented yet. Someone has to add a RepeatCounter
grob (in analogy to PercentRepeatCounter).
I'm struggling to understand the difference between what's requested in
146 and what is delivered with the current LilyPond implementation of
bar/measure numbers.
Hi, Phil,
see e.g. <http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=651>. Which is sort of a
really, really nasty workaround to implement them; I have a vague idea
about making it only singly-really nasty, and adopting it for better
spacing, but I won't deal with it before 2.14. is there. Even then,
it'll be far from an easy-to-use solution.
The bar counters are stand-alone staff-like thingies which can be
printed at an arbitrary position of the score (above, below, or even in
between for large scores). The bar numbers should be centered between
bar lines, and typically the font much more "present" or dominant than
for measure numbers. I think they are primarily intended for
conductor's scores.
(Note this is what I feel bar counters should look like, and it's
similar to what Werner implemented in the much simpler
<http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=473>. For a proper enhancement, we
should have a look in some notation guidebook.)
Cheers,
Alexander
