I don't think the first way would be that bad. I mean: attributes on segments telling how they should be repeated, and then showing "shadows" of them in the track editor. That would of course mean that all repeats should be on segment boundaries, so you would have to use more segments, but it has advantages over allowing repeats in the middle of segments and working out how the GUI should show that (and jump during playback). > 4) No multi-bar rests.

Lilypond has its own problems. :) Peter ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Power Architecture Resource Center: Free content, downloads, discussions, and more. http://solutions.newsforge.com/ibmarch.tmpl _______________________________________________ Rosegarden-devel mailing list [email protected] - use the link below to unsubscribe https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rosegarden-devel
