Mats- Yeah I thought of that after I sent the message. So I tried it and fiddled with the input. Your example worked but once I filled in the actual data it promptly got all wonky so it won't work as a two lined score- the defaults, I suspect are just too many to override. It also seems that if I try to give the longer-2nd- line a volta 2 it the program rejects it as not matching the first line and then attaches the alternative measure to the score as a 3rd staff. Very strange.
So I'm going to try your second suggestion of two scores on one page which I didn't think was possible and I've not seen (but I suspect is somewhere) an example of to get it right.

I would be very surprised if it didn't work in version 2.8.4. See the section on Changing Defaults to learn more about this type of settings. /Mats Quoting Jay Hamilton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Mats- You don't have to see the point of this- that's ok, however > your layout below doesn't look like any template allowed/workable for > 2.8.4 > So can this work in the older version? > Jay > > Jay Hamilton > www.soundand.com > 206-328-7694 > > --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > From: Mats Bengtsson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > CC: lilypond-user@gnu.org > Subject: Re: Two staves one stops with repeat the other continues > Date: Thu, 08 Feb 2007 14:11:05 +0100 > > You mean something like > \layout{ > \context{ > \Score > \remove Repeat_acknowledge_engraver > \remove Default_bar_line_engraver > } > \context{ > \Staff > \consists Repeat_acknowledge_engraver > \consists Default_bar_line_engraver > } > } > > \score{ > << > \new Staff { \repeat volta 3 {c1 c c } \alternative{{c}{c}} } > \new Staff { \repeat volta 2 {e1 e e e e e e} \mark "Fine" e } > >> > } > > > > If the score spans several lines, I honestly don't see the point of > printing this > type of score, since the line break will happen at different places in the > two parts. > > /Mats _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
