This method works (with the older syntax for me, as I have version 2.16.1), so it would be an acceptable solution; thanks for explaining how it can be done. The only shortcoming is that I must put in empty bars because the inserted ossia part doesn't start at the beginning of the line. But maybe one can fix that with forced linebreaks. Thomas
