I searched for this issue, and turned up this thread from 2005: <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.lilypond.general/19134>. At the time, the fellow posting the question was advised to "take a look at the section on 'Manual Repeat Commands' in the manual."
Is this still the only option? I'm trying to typeset something like the score shown in <http://youtu.be/xucuWOMmPio>. Below is a cut-down version of a source file that seems to accomplish this result. To my (beginner's) eye, this looks kind of messy. But is there a better way? --Joel Salomon \version "2.16.2" Melody = \relative c'' { \key a \minor \set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta "1.")) { \partial 4 g4 | g4 g g g | } \set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f) (volta "2.--3.")) \bar "|:" { \set Timing.measureLength = #(ly:make-moment 1 4) b4 | \set Timing.measureLength = #(ly:make-moment 4 4) c4 c c c | } \set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f) (volta "1.--3.")) { a4 a a a | c4 c c c | } \set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f) (volta "1.--2")) \set Timing.measureLength = #(ly:make-moment 3 4) { b4 b b | } \set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f) end-repeat (volta "3.")) \set Timing.measureLength = #(ly:make-moment 4 4) { a4 a a a | } \set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f)) \bar "|." } Harmonies = \chordmode { s4 | c1 | s4 | a1:m | c | f | g2. | c1 | } Lyrics = \lyricmode { { The | first time on -- ly. | } { All | oth -- er ver -- ses. | } { Each and eve -- ry | verse sings this part. | } { First two times. | } { Just the last time. | } } \score { << \new ChordNames { \Harmonies } \new Staff { \context Voice = "Vocal" { \Melody } } \new Lyrics \lyricsto "Vocal" \Lyrics >> } _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
