I am not sure I understand. For all but the first repeat alternative (which would retain the current behavior), the alternative _is_ detached from the common repeat part. So it would appear that the situation is quite comparable to a linebreak. There is a problem concerning editor support: a tie started in the common repeat part will need to be ended in all alternatives, so the input contains what looks like unbalanced ties (more closing than opening ones). I don't see that anything else makes sense, however. One possibility would be to provide strict aliases \startTie and \endTie for ( and ) that would presumably be transparent to editors' paren matching facilities. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
