That works but my actual cadenza is longer than 8 eighth notes. When I add
another eighth note and put the \cadenza On and Off back in the MMR disappears
again. Even putting 9/8 for that example doesn't help.
I also get these errors:
programming error: Multi_measure_rest::get_rods (): I am not spanned!
continuing, cross fingers
programming error: Object is not a markup.
continuing, cross fingers
This object should be a markup: ()
programming error: Multi_measure_rest::get_rods (): I am not spanned!
continuing, cross fingers
I think my original question has validity and may even lead to a bug report.
Thanks,
Paul
