Re: Strange behaviour of multiple \include’d documents

[William Rehwinkel]

Dear Immanuel,






-Will

Sorry, I’m having trouble finding what would be the problem from the provided snippets. Could you please reduce the files to a minimum working example that we can compile that reproduces the problem? This might help find what is the problem. In my experience when this kind of thing happens I find it’s due to some extremely obscure or hard to find mistake that I made. Does lilypond throw any errors or warnings when compiling all three files together?

Dear community,





My main document looks like this:

    \version "2.22.2"

    \header {
      title = "Seltsame Liebeslieder"
      composer = "Frühjahr 2007 – Frühjahr 2021"
      tagline = ##f
    }

    \include "Trinklied.ly"
    \include "Fruehlingslied.ly"
    \include "Wetterlied.ly"

<desired.png>



I’m hoping to find help here. Thanks in advance.

I’ve been using lilypond for a fair amount of time, and even though I sometimes use non-standard notation, I’ve never had any problem finding a solution. Until now. It’s my first time typesetting a song cycle I wrote. I want (as what I understand is recommended) to typeset every piece on its own, then include all of them via the \include command. Now, including the first and second piece was no problem. When I add the third piece, however, I end up without any line break up from the middle of it (see attached “nobreak.png”). Compiling Wetterlied.ly (outside the main document) works just fine. Also, \include’ing /only/ "Wetterlied.ly" gives the desired result (as shown in "desired.png"). I’ve tried changing the order (first "Wetterlied.ly", then a different piece); I’ve tried stripping some paper information from the original file (there are only set-paper-size and the margins) – all to no avail. Since I do not know where to look for the error, I hesitate to post code from Wetterlied.ly. I will include, however, my code for mm. 26 throug 32 in each voice.
