Hi, I would like to illustrate a problem regarding the Rehearsal Marks in scores. Here, I have two seperate parts ( soprano2.ly and bass2.ly ) which I intend to combine into a full score ( exultate2.ly ). In the seperate parts, I lengthened the distance between the rehearsal mark (Recitativo) and the staves. Of course, this works with the \override Score.Rehearsal #'padding = #(number) function in each of the parts. The problem crops up when I combine the parts in a score. Here the Rehearsal Mark's position is in its original unchanged position, which is unaffected the \override command. I tried putting the \override RehearsalMark command in the layout block as shown in the file, but it doesn't seem to work. What is wrong here? I tried putting it in different positions but the outcome (or the lack of ) is frustrating 2. Is there a marked difference between a stable and a development version of Lilypond? This is because I'm now using version 2.6.3 and I intend to use 2.7.x for its extended support for figured bass. Can I use the development version for my computer that is using Windows 98? Would I need to use convert-ly since I see no major syntax change and I just need to change the version number of the .ly files. I can upload the pdf files if you would like to but the upload rate on my dial up is crap though.
Thank you.
Yours sincerely,
Seng Liang.
P.S. As I live in Malaysia, can I join the mailing list?
