You did not address the scripts attached to multimeasure rests. When combining multiple multimeasure rests, you may end up with fewer rests than you started with (which is sort of the point), and with different ranges. That means that you don't have similar positions to apply the scripts to, and you might have more scripts than multimeasure rests anyway. What if a multimeasure rest is completely overlayed by material in the same voice? Not print it at all? -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
