Either use a separate identifier like
\mypagebreaks = {\skip 4*20 \pageBreak ...}
or use the \tag feature.

Note also that the page breaking algorithm in version 2.10 is much more clever than in previous versions, so it should automatically try to place page breaks
when there is a long rest.

It just seems like, if ever there were global information in musical

score, that that global information would include line- and

page-breaking information. As it is, line- and page-breaking

information *must* now embed within musical input, which just seems

odd: after all, the breaking information certainly doesn't "belong" to

one voice or one staff or one staff group; if anything, maybe the

breaking information "belongs" to a single score ... almost makes me

think that explicit breaking information belongs in the \with block of

the score.



Has anyone else ever had that feeling?


Very good idea ...

The stuff I do is pretty much all setting parts. But I'd also like to combine those parts into scores. And, while I don't know how the new page breaking handles it, I have come across plenty of parts that have a page turn in the middle of a phrase ... (and often a rest close by!!!). So you need to break different parts in different places. If your score then applies all of those breaks ...

Yep - I think it's a very good idea moving explicit breaks out of the voice context. Question is, can it be done easily? And if so, how?

Cheers,
Wol
