This property is entered by the user, or defaults to 1. Knowing the first page number of a book is trivial. > returns the first page of the \book. Isn't there another function > that returns the first page of the \score ? No. for the following reason: you have to call the page breaking function to know on what pages a score will be placed. At the time the footer and header markups are created by the page breaking function, the score is not placed on it yet. > I suppose that I could hard-code the numbers: > #(define (first-page-score layout props arg) > (if (= (chain-assoc-get 'page:page-number props -1) > 3|5|7 ) > *** I know that's not proper scheme You can do that, sure. This problematics also arise when one wants to make a table of contents. nicolas _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
