The only previous documentation of set-time-signature had been in Documentation/snippets/new/conducting-signs,-measure-grouping-signs.ly and the code updated this. Ok, a snippet is not really a substitute for real documentation, so apologies. I only remembered that I eradicated set-time-signature completely including rewriting its documentation, but I did not remember it had been so flimsy to start with. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
