Hello,
I'm engraving a string quartet, and I have the four staffs inside a
StaffGroup. This is normally good for bar lines, as normally I need
single barlines that display through the four staves. But there's a
point where the time signatures differ for every stave, but just for a
few bars. How can I tell the engine to create separate barlines only for
that few staves?
The 2.11 manual seems to be offline at the moment. But check 8.4.1
"Polymetric notation" in the 2.10 manual. Should work fine; if not,
post a minimal example that gets as close as you can.
P.S. If someone knew a solution on how to connect a horizontal line to a
barline, or better, a solution to how to tell the engine to put the
first notes of the bars exactly on the barline (as this would solve the
line problem with some invisible notes on the barline that have
glissando lines attached), please tell me! (The 'put the first notes of
the bar exactly on the barline' could also be useful to engrave scores
that have strict space notation, like Tristan Murail's ones.)
This is possible today using proportional notation. The 2.10 manual
mentions proportional notation only a little; the 2.11 manual (which,
again, is currently offline) treats proportional notation in much
greater detail. Read about that in 2.11 when it's available, and
expect to spend a day or two running examples to learn how the
different proportional notation parameters interact.
