Did you see his output? What struck me as strange is not that the rests were shifted in increments of half a staff line - that is to be expected. What is strange, however, is that for all rests longer than a quarter, voiced-position = 3 has the same effect as voiced-position = 2 (i.e., they are *not* shifted the final odd step), and voiced-position = 5 has the same effect as voiced-position = 4. Also, for multi-measure rests, voiced-position > 2 seems to have no effect whatsoever; they don't go any higher than voiced-position = 2. This behavior seems internally inconsistent. Even if we take for granted that odd voiced-position shifts are probably not very common, it is still concerning that there is one behavior for shifts <= 2, a different behavior for shifts > 2, and finally that the behavior is different for each kind of rest (<= quarter, >= half, and multi-measure each behave differently, but only when voiced-position > 2). Perhaps this is a bug in the voiced-position implementation? -- Peter _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
