Subject: Partial measures (in middle of score)


I'm attempting to set a Classical-era piece using LilyPond and I can't figure
out how to create partial measures in the middle of the score (while also
avoiding bar check failures).

I can use the partial command at the beginning of my score without issue,
but when it comes time to put the other "matching" partial measure mid-score
(before the section repeats back to the beginning), LilyPond gives me bar
check fails. I've tried using invisible rests, but they put too much
white-space in the mid-score partial measure it looks odd.

What is the preferred way to input partial measures mid-score and also avoid
excess white-space and bar check fails? I'm stumped.

Thanks!


I'm wondering whether you actually have partial measures, or actually a bar split in its middle. If the latter, something like:

{ \partial 4 c4 | c c \bar "|" c c | }

works perfectly well.
