Bar alignment

2010-10-11 Thread Agostino Dovier
Hi all, does someone know how to force the alignment of bars in subsequent lines? I mean. I would like to produce a regular score e.g. with 4 bars per line and with a fixed length of each bar (eg, set to 1/4 of page width). I know it is not always the best solution but sometimes it might be

Hi, From the answers I've had I infer that there is no standard way of doing that. The answer the closest from what I expected is to use a rehearsal mark (thanks to Vicente). Unfortunately it doesn't work when the end-repeat bar is the last bar of the score: % This score doesn't have x4 printed

an approach is: \relative c'' { \repeat volta 4 { c1 } \override Score.RehearsalMark #'self-alignment-X = #1 \mark \markup repeat 4 times \bar :| } maybe you'll want to tweak it to fit the text over the measure! Gilles Filippini wrote: James a écrit , Le 11/10/2010 14:42: If you

Hi, when using \RemoveEmptyStaffContext, between-system-padding and between-system-space seem to have no effect, the staff systems are squeezed together with seemingly no vertical space between them. Sorry if I'm missing the obvious. I tried to find information in the doca about that but didn't
