Thank you for replying, Pierre.
Now I have tried it with no improvement.
Also, the whole point of \timing is to not to have stuff in or before
the parts which can all be in one function (timing or common). As I
said I have been using this idea for many years and now the behavior
seems to have changed.
Stay well,
Paul

Hi Paul,
Have you tried: PartAComplete = << \timing \compressMMRests \PartA >>

The following MWE is a variation of the first code example in 2.21.1

I believe this used to work In 2.19.xx.
How can I accomplish the following, i.e. have the structure common to
all parts in a single definition as I have been doing for many years
with Lily?
For example:
\version 2.20.0"
timing = { \compressMMRests s1*28 \bar "|." }
PartA = { R1*4 R1*24 }
PartAComplete = << \timing \PartA >>
\score{ \new Staff \new Voice \PartAComplete }
