Yes, the standard solution is to use a global variable which contains things like rehearsal and tempo marks, meter changes, etc. >Secondly, how can I make rehearsal marks appear both on the very top >staff and the top staff of the strings? As far as I can see, >rehearsal marks will always be put at the very top staff. See this snippet http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=1010 which defines a custom context to achieve this. Note this currently doesn't work well in a frenched score as the MarkLine context can't know if the staves below it are still alive. However I have just submitted a potential fix for this, see here https://codereview.appspot.com/308910043/ for its progress. -- Mark Knoop _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
