Thanks Thomas for your input. I have applied your first alternative - the
simpler one - to a four part piece. This is the classical length of a
march in piping. The enclosed snippet illustrates the result. The end of
the first part looses its repeat barline. I have tried introducing a \bar
":|." at the end of the first part, however, this causes the repeat
barline at the beginning of the second part to be supressed. Using manual
commands instead of the \repeat volta format for the first part doesn't
improve the situation. I feel that we are very close to a solution and
would appreciate any suggestions you may be able to offer.
------------------------------------
\version "2.18.0"
\defineBarLine ".|:-|." #'("|." ".|:" "|.") % needed to allow the
% "volta-hook" mid-line:
#(allow-volta-hook ".|:-|.")
music = \relative c' {
\key c \major
\time 4/4
\bar ".|:"
%Part 1
\repeat volta 2 {
a4. a8 b4. b8
c4. c8 d4. d8
\break }
%Part 2
\set Score.repeatCommands = #'(start-repeat)
e4. e8 f4. f8
\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta "1."))
g4. g8 a4. a8
\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f) (volta "2. --2,4")
end-repeat)
b4. b8 c4. c8
\bar ".|:-|."
\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f))
\break
%Part 3
\repeat volta 2 {
a4. a8 b4. b8
c4. c8 d4. d8
\break }
%% not changed:
%Part 4
\repeat volta 2 {
e4. e8 f4. f8
\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta "1."))
g4. g8 f4.f8
\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f))
}
}% end relative
\score {
\new Staff { \music }
}
