This is a very interesting approach, which I will consider seriously for many of the applications I have. In particular, it is superior to my current “manually insert \transpose commands all over the place“ method. (And, p.s., I love the small but important abstractions you also implemented, like \KMTags — every reduction in duplication helps in such a complex/complicated structure!) The one constraint/situation this might not handle is when the transposition/octavation happens *mid-system*. I could, of course, just accept that I always have to end a system and French the staves appropriately… but at this stage of investigation, I want to know all of my options, and the pros/cons of each approach. Many thanks for this solution! Kieren. ______________________________________________ My work day may look different than your work day.
