They are the negative logarithms (base 2) of the usable durations. -3 means \maxima, 0 means 1, and 3 would mean 8, if you’d like to have the full-bar rest in 2/16 time displayed as a quaver rest.

Thank you very much for that.
I had seen the usable-duration-log variable in the Internals Reference,
and its default value of '(-3 -2 -1 0) . But I have no idea what these
values represent. Can you enlighten me?

LilyPond sets whole-bar rests as breve rests. I should like them to

I have tried modifying the stencil using the method shown in NR5.5.3.
But as it stands this is not successful, because the rest symbol is
now attached to the preceding barline instead of appearing in the
middle of the bar.
How can I get semibreve rest symbols in the correct position, rather
than breve rests?

\time 21/8

Form of multi-measure-rests
In a piece which is in 21/8 time (7 dotted crotchets) I find that LilyPond sets whole-bar rests as breve rests. I should like them to appear as semibreve rests, as they would if the bars were shorter. I have tried modifying the stencil using the method shown in NR5.5.3. But as it stands this is not successful, because the rest symbol is now attached to the preceding barline instead of appearing in the middle of the bar. How can I get semibreve rest symbols in the correct position, rather than breve rests? David ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
