Short of that, Lilypond should pick the way that best reflects the art of typesetting, as recognized by the developers. It is ok if there are manual overrides (and style overrides for a whole document), but the defaults should not require music typesetting taste and choices. -- David Kastrup ___ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond

That seems like a reasonable rule. But a quick look through my pile of full scores (Mostly Dover reprints of 18th and 19th century scores) shows it is not always obeyed. I.e. there are plenty of cases where the a time signature change is placed after the repeat sign even though there is no time change inside the repeat. If one of the alternatives of the repeat end in a meter different from what it begins, then if the expansion rule should prevail, there must be a time signature at the beginning of the repeat after the |:.
