Kieren,
You hit the nail on the head!
Living in the southwestern U.S., I find myself going nuts between 6/8 and 3/4 -
WSS is the perfect example - except that here we go back and forth without any
actual notational indication (except maybe a hasty pencil mark). My head hurts

In “West Side Story”, the half-measure beams in “America” indicate where the
measure grooves in 6/

Interesting. In my defence I can only say that this wasn't available back

Carl,
Thanks for the additional detail - it was very helpful - at least for me.
Unfortunately, it is probably a bit too much info for our young (second-year)
viola student. I'm trying to keep his parts as "playable" as possibly. He
needs to focus on tuning and confidence at the moment - readi

Hi all,
the challenge: start a repeat with alternative endings in the second
volta of a previous repeat _and_ do BarNumbers correctly with
'numbers-with-letters _and_ correct midi while using \unfoldRepeats.
First attempt:
mus-tst = {
\set Score.alternativeNumberingStyle = #'numbers-with-lette
Even simpler (for the 3/4 case): /\set Timing.beamHalfMeasure = ##f/

That's not entirely accurate, in 3/4 time the autobeaming by default

Hi All,
I have encountered an auto-beaming problem (actually, the Violist for whom I'm
doing transcriptions brought it to my attention).
When working in 3/4, Lilypond is autobeaming 8th notes in groups of 3 8th notes
per pulse (as if it were 6/8) rather than in groups of 2 8th notes per pulse.

Hello list,
\version "2.18" .. "2.19.39"
I would like the left and right bound-detail texts of a TextSpanner to
keep apart. Right now, they overlap horizontally in a fearful way. What
can I do to keep them apart?
\score {
\new Staff {
\override TextSpanner.bound-details.left.text
There is really no way to do this? E.g., this source code
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/lilypond.git/tree/lily/midi-control-function-performer.cc#n74
seems to indicate that I can set values for properties
but I'm forced to name them, and the name gets
translated to a number via the table

Hi list,
I am working on a large score with several ties. You might have read
about Janek's thoughts on a tie-crusade and maybe this is related.
I don't have a perfect solution on this topic, but I could reduce the
needed shape-tweaks significantly. I want to share it - probably it

Ciao Martin,
- Which Lilypond version did you installed?
- If you installed Frescobaldi could you test if the "import midi" feature
works? To test it: File/Import/Import midi and then specify a simple midi
file. In my tests it should not work IF you have Lilypond version 2.19.39
and 2.19.36 (didn
