What I mean is, if the barline in another [polymetric] staff falls in the middle of a MultiMeasureRest, could Lilypond [automatically] split the measure, perhaps putting a parenthesized MMR on the following system?
This came up not very long ago, but I had forgotten http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2863 So it is not the rests that are refusing to break across lines, but the bars themselves. The Bar_line_engraver does two jobs, printing barlines at the right places, and forbidding line-breaks at all other places. You only want the first job. The rule now is that a line can break when every staff has a bar (more specifically, whenever every Bar_line_engraver says it is okay); maybe that should be when *any* staff has a bar. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
