Hi!
Lilypond is absolutely fantastic, but my knowledge of musical notation
might be a bit lacking. In the example below I don't understand how
lilypond chooses to place the bar lines, which means the result is not
what I intended.
I'm using version 2.12.3-1 on the mac.
To the best of my knowledge bar 6, which consists only of rests, is
only 14 16ths long. As a consequence "here" is not at the beginning of
bar 7 like I wanted, and again "should" should be the beginning of bar
8. finally bar 9 appears to consist of 18 16ths.
Probably I'm doing something wrong, but I don't know what. So if
somebody is willing to help me, that would be so nice!
