Thanks for the clarification.

A friendly suggestion to all: My $0.02 is that it’s best practice on this
list always to include a URL when citing documentation. 🙂

The number for a section of LilyPond documentation frequently changes
across LilyPond version numbers. For example, in 2.24 the section “Measure
counts” was at 1.2.5, not 2.5.6.

If posters include links, then readers who want to help them don’t have to
spend time guessing “Which version of LilyPond is this poster using?” or
clicking through multiple links to get to the section of documentation in
question.

I think I found the section that you are citing:

https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.27/Documentation/notation/bars#measure-counts

I have never used measure counts myself, but I imagine that someone with
experience has an answer to your question!
