Hello,
I a newbie with musixtex etc and I have a few questions regarding movement
breaks in pmx.
I'm setting a four part choral piece with keyboard accompanient.
For half the piece the keyboard does not play and I would like to have
just the vocal parts showing eg:
Stanza
1 soprano
alto
tenor
bass
keyboardright
keyboardleft
\\\settrebleclefsymbol{2}\treblelowoct\
\\\grouptop14\groupbottom11\
L2Mcn42345btttr-
2 soprano
alto
tenor
bass
{page break}
3 soprono
alto
tenor
bass
\\\settrebleclefsymbol{3}\treblelowoct\
\\\grouptop15\groupbottom12\
L4Mcn512345btbtttr-
4 soprano
alto
tenor
bass
keyboardright
keyboardleft
Some probs I've run into are:
1.
The bar lines at the end of movements seem to behave strangly. At the end
of stanza 1 there is a bar line only on the left hand keyboard line not
one going across both keyboard lines of music. Then at the end of stanza 3
there is a tall bar line spanning the tenor and bass parts instead of two
single ones.
2.
Above stanza 3 there is a large vertical space (which looks about large
enough to contain another line of music. ie the sporano line on stanza
3 is at the same height as the alto line in stanza 1). This has the side
affect of pushing stanza 4 onto the next page.
3.
I'm using a treble clef with an 8 under it (whatever the technical term
is) for the tenor part. after the first movement break, pmx moves this
tenor treble clef to the alto line, hence the \\settrebleclefsymbol
statement. But I can'y get rid of the wrong clef in the alto
part. Inserting a \\\resetclefsymbols seems to completly stuff up the bar
lines at the end of the movements - puts a thick line from top to bottom
and thick lines at the end of each line.
Any help would be appreciated.
cheers
