Can you motivate a situation where it is interesting to
change that size. The (vertical) length of the end lines
is now determined as twice the separation between two staff lines,
according to normal typesetting practice. If you change the size
of the stave itself, this length should automatically be adjusted
correspondingly, so there's no reason to use the font-size to
adjust to such a situation (in contrast to ordinary rests or note
heads). Maybe it could be useful for cue notes, but I cannot recall
how it's done in printed scores (don't even know if I have ever seen
a "church rest" in a cue).

In v 2.4.3, simple MultiMeasure rests can only be scaled piecewise. Please
implement font-size for MultiMeasureRest so it is effective for simple rests
as well as church rests.
If this is not possible, at least add length of the vertical end lines and
length of the horizontal bar to the handles now available.

Thanks.

Bruce,
AFAICT from the code there is no such property. You could send in a
feature request :-)

Ruud -
Thanks for the pointer.
It seems that font-size for simple MultiMeasureRest has at least three
components. Horizontal bar thickness is controlled with \override
MultiMeasureRest #'thick-thickness and thickness of vertical bars at
ends with \override MultiMeasureRest #'hair-thickness. Still haven't
found the third wanted component: length of vertical end bars.

Bruce,
Apart from a MultiMeasureRest object, also a MultiMeasureRestNumber
object and a MultiMeasureRestText object exists.
You can find this information in the program reference
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.4/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond-internals/
Multi_005fmeasure_005frest_005fengraver.html#Multi_005fmeasure_005frest_005f
e
ngraver
when you change the line
\override MultiMeasureRest #'font-size = #6
into
\override MultiMeasureRestNumber #'font-size = #6
the number above is scaled accordingly.
Ruud.

What's the clue for changing font size of simple multimeasure rests?
\override MultiMeasureRest #'font-size = #6
controls church rests, but doesn't effect the simple style in the
attached example, which expands the snippet in 8.2.3 of the user
manual.
