Hello all, While answering Helge's post about multi-measure rests, I had a couple of R-elated observations/thoughts:
1. We shouldn't be encouraging code like R4*3 in a 4/4 measure, right? So the duration ultimately makes no sense anyway. 2. The most elegant solution would be to use R (i.e., with no duration) to represent a multimeasure rest, and it would "adapt" in duration to whatever time signature was in force at that moment. 3. Then R14 (e.g.) would represent 14 *measures*, not beats/counts — again, simpler, more elegant, and certainly more intuitive than the current situation. Would it be difficult to implement such a scheme (play-on-words intended)? Best regards, Kieren. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
