I've also tried the following solution, with tuplets instead of compressMusic, but \break doesn't work. Libero
\score { << \set Score.proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment 1 16) \new Staff { % first staff \time 3/4 c c c c c c \bar "|" \break c c c } % end staff \new Staff { % second staff \time 9/4 \times 3/4 {c c c \bar "|" c } %\bar "|" \times 3/4 {c c \bar "|" c c } %\bar "|" \times 3/4 {c \bar "|" c c c } %\bar "|" } % end staff \new Staff { % third staff \time 6/4 \times 2/3 {c c c \bar "|"} %\bar "|" \times 2/3 {c c c \bar "|"} %\bar "|" \times 2/3 {c c c \bar "|"} } % end staff >> %end of expression together } %end of \score \layout { \context { \Score \remove "Timing_translator" \remove "Default_bar_line_engraver" } % end of context Score \context { \Staff \consists "Timing_translator" \consists "Default_bar_line_engraver" } % end of context Staff \context { \Voice \remove "Forbid_line_break_engraver" } % end of context Voice } % end of layout _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
