Hi everyone,
For pedagogical reasons, I want to include every measure number in my
scores. I've been using the LSR's consistently left-aligned numbers
available at http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=840
But this causes problems with slurs, ledger lines, etc., which push the
measure numbers up high above the given measure (see the attached MWE).
Thus I have two related questions:
- How might I adjust \consistentlyLeftAlignedMeasureNumbers to keep them
consistently near the staff, no matter what the music is?
- Alternatively, if there are others that require every number to be
measured, how have you solved this problem? I'm unfortunately not too keen
on the solution shown in the recent "bar numbers at top of score" thread.
Thanks,
Sam
