Hi Paul, > I was thinking the edition engraver would be a good way > to handle Urs’ "original breaks" functionality.
Urs and I have had a brief private correspondence discussing that very point. =) Summary: I don’t think the existence of the \editionEngraver means his “original breaks” functionality shouldn’t exist on their own in the regular distro. But I definitely agree that \editionEngraver makes easy work of that sort of thing. > Instead of entering the original breaks (tagged or with a special break > command) in the score in the middle of the music, mixing content and > presentation... I can imagine a way to simply enter a list of measure > numbers where the original breaks should be placed, as part of the "editing > edition" of the score. > Then it would be easy to turn this "editing edition" on or off (from the > command line or however). That’s exactly what I do. =) If the \editionEngraver had anchors and direct context addressing, I believe I would be able to finally eliminate all presentation-layer coding (e.g., \tags, \tweaks, etc.) from my content code.
