Can you post a png of the beginning of part 2? Perhaps there's a missing indication of first and second endings for the repeat? Two partial measures in a row is highly suspicious. Don't forget that repeat signs are not necessarily bar lines, and that they occasionally appear in the middle of a measure, perhaps creating the illusion of a partial measure. An "incomplete" measure in the middle of a score should be notated with a change in the time signature, and, as far as I know, NEVER with \partial. Perhaps it would make more sense to use two \score blocks, one for each part. The link Marek provided will work, but may take a while to load since it loads the whole Notation Reference. Here's a quicker link to the "split" version of the same section: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/notation/long-repeats Hopefully this will be enough to help you figure it out. - Mark _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
