Hi all - I'm currently using Lilypond 2.22.1 to set some handbell music, and I'm encountering a problem with measure numbering. I need all measures numbered in this score - for some reason, the first measure number in each line is being printed twice: Working file is attached. Thanks much!

Kieren, Thank you so much for trying to help me. I couldn't figure out how to override the stencil (I'm afraid I'm still too much of a novice), but I finally figured out how to shift a regular rest horizontally so it appears a bit more centered. Thank you again! Karen On Tuesday, March 6,

Thank you so much for your help - using R1 instead of r1 did the trick. I don't know how, in a year's worth of reading documentation, the sentence "Whole measure rests, centered in the middle of the measure, must be entered as multi-measure rests." in section 1.2.2 of the Notation Reference
