I typed in a four part tune and found that the time signature had to
be declared in each part. This seems strange because the time stuff
is handled by the score context, so I should only have to declare one
time signature for the music, it seems. The following version
works,
Could you send a faulty example?
I noticed that \relative and \transpose interact in an odd way.
Yup. Correct. \relative applies a transformation on the information
that follows it. \transpose does too. The two are not commutative
If you do \transpose first, then the names and octaves are all
different up. \relative will give weird effects.
Of course, the simple solution is to avoid using \transpose inside
\relative, but it might be desireable to do one of two things: change
the behavior so that it makes some kind of sense, or print a warning
message of some sort. One place where this could be particularly
surprising is inside .fly files where there is an implicit \relative.
If you use \transpose inside a .fly file, you'll see the weird
behaviors.
I could make \relative not look `inside' a \transpose. Then you would
have to do
\transpose \relative
inside a .fly file for useful behaviour. How would you like that?
