problem with volta bracket

2007-06-02 Thread tao_lilyponduser
I still couldn't solve my problem with the volta bracket. The bracket from the first ending is placed vertically higher than the bracket from the second ending, to not collide with the notes in that bar. Now I want to adjust the second bracket to the same height. I tried with overriding

Thanks for the help. Now, where would I have to put the commands inline? Directly before the \repeat volta or inside? Because I don't want to change the whole file. regards, Tao Original-Nachricht Datum: Sat, 2 Jun 2007 09:23:53 -0400 Von: Kieren MacMillan [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hello, I have a score, that begins without upbeat. After some measures (in the example four) a second part begins. The second part has an upbeat. Therefor the last measure of the first part has less notes (3/4). The second part has also a volta repeat. Lilypond produces this as expected
