hi all, is there any way i can set a variable globally and react in the layout/header block depending on the content of the variable?
i have the following files: marschbuch.ly concert.ly trbnI.ly trbnII.ly trbnIII.ly trbnIV.ly trbnI - trbnIV each contain a \book block with numerous pieces (at the moment 17 and counting) -- which explains why i don't want to have to create these files for both layout types... marschbuch.ly creates a5-landscape with 16pt staves; concert.ly creates a4 portrait with 20pt staves. for layouting the 15-landscape version, i've had to force a few breakbefores in the \header, but these are not needed in the a4 portrait version. i'm thinking i could define a boolean variable in the marschbuch.ly and concert.ly files, and then set breakbefore accordingly. but i have no idea how. can anyone help? thanks, regards, simon. -- Do not meddle in the affairs of trombonists, for they are subtle and quick to anger. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
