An R2 is certainly centered within the measure if you have 2/4 time: << \new Staff \relative c'{ \time 2/4 c8 d e f } \new Staff {R2 } >> However, as was pointed out by Kieren, a half note rest in the beginning of a 4/4 measure should be left aligned with the first note of the measure, not centered in the first half of the measure, according to common typesetting practice. /Mats > ---- Original message ---- > From: Erik Appeldoorn <[email protected]> > Sent: 29 Oct 2009 18:39 +01:00 > To: 'Kieren MacMillan' <[email protected]> > Cc: <[email protected]> > Subject: RE: centering rests > > You are quite right, and I have never even bothered to check.
