Here's one trick you can try. There is a problem, however -- a slight extra space appears where the invisible fake-barlines (possible break-points) are. And the obvious way of correcting that didn't work. I'll ask the other developers if there's a way to fix that. - Mark \version "2.13.3" \layout { % line-width is set just to demonstrate the function. line-width = #50 } % lls = "long-long-short" -- identifiers can't have numbers. % remove the demo markups (^"3+3+2") once it's clear. lls = { s2.^"3+3+2" \bar "" s2. \bar "" s2 | } lsl = { s2.^"3+2+3" \bar "" s2 \bar "" s2. | } sll = { s2 ^"2+3+3" \bar "" s2. \bar "" s2. | } possibleBreaks = { \lls \lsl \sll } music = { \time 8/4 \repeat unfold 24 c''4 } \new Voice << \possibleBreaks \music >>
