Hi Thomas, Thanks for your answer. About the 1st proposition, it looks great! It is just a pity I was not able (so far) to write anything but pure numbers above the bars. It would be great if I manage to add the "x" after the number. About the 2nd proposition, those discussions in that link are way above my level at Lilypond, I really could not understand much of what was going on :(
I am experimenting now with analysis brackets plus the centralized bar numbers, let's see how they work together. Thanks a lot for all the help!
