Strange space between beam and slur

2019-06-22 Thread Lukas-Fabian Moser
Folks, while engraving a Bach chorale, I stumbled over an overlarge space between a slur and a beam. After a happy hour of trying to boil the problem down to a minimal example, I arrived at: \version "2.19.39" \new Staff <<   {     R1     a''8( b'' b'' a'')   } \\ {     r4   } >> This

Minor variations on a re-used section

2019-06-22 Thread Evan Driscoll
I've got a couple variants of the same question. Suppose I have a few measures that are reused exactly multiple times. If they are adjacent, I can use '\repeat unfold' and only write it once. If they're not, I can put them into a music variable and use that. But what can I do if they are...
