staff group vs. single staff barlines
Is it possible to create mid-measure barlines within a staff group that don't cross the white space between staves? If I need to supply a sample of the original in order for anyone to know what I'm talking about, please let me know.

Duplicate Alternate Repeat Brackets
I recently posted a question involving repeat brackets colliding with chord
names. Thanks to Matts Bengtsson for the solution. However, after
implementing the solution, I now have a new problem.
On the topmost of three staves, the repeat brackets are duplicated. The old
brackets remain, and new ones have appeared where I want them. How do I
eliminate the old brackets?
The relevant code segment follows:
\score {
\notes <<
\context ChordNames \with { voltaOnThisStaff = ##t } {
\transpose c a \changes
}
\context Staff = one \relative d' {
\set Staff.instrument = #"Alto Sax"
\key c \major
\time 4/4
\clef treble
\repeat volta 2 {
%NOTES GO HERE
}
\alternative {
{
%MORE NOTES
\bar "||"}
}
%NOTES AGAIN
\bar "|."
}
%OTHER STAVES FOLLOW

Rehearsal Marks
My apologies for yet another question, I have tried to resolve this myself but cannot find the answer. Here's the situation - I can create rehearsal marks:- With letters, boxed, by manually adding text With letters, unboxed, automatically With numbers, unboxed, automatically With numbers, boxed, automatically (example in the manual) What I'm looking for is letters, boxed, automatically. Is this possible? BTW, I tried out the the charts I prepared with lilypond last week with our jazz combo last night, and received no negative comments whatsoever about the layout - praise indeed, believe me. So congratulations on a good program! Thanks again, Jennifer ___ lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Thanks Graham, I tried that but had no luck - when inserting markup the text dissappeared - but will try again. > If you want to do anything fancy, though, I recommend looking at > lilypond-book. I noticed that in the manual, but it is pretty over specified for what I am looking for. What I want to say is something along these lines:- Intro: repeat section A->B twice Solo on section C->D. After solos, go to $ It seems that the footer/copyright/tagline options would be most appropriate.

Lyric Entry
I am brand new to Lilypond and am having a heck of a time getting lyrics to
render properly. I have 2 questions:
1) I want to line up the words "Agnus Dei" under a certain set of notes. So
far the only way I have been able to properly align the syllables "De-i" is
using 3 dashes (see source below) but I only want it to display *one* dash in
the center of the melisma. If I enter "De -- i" or even "De -- -- -- i" it
ignores the melisma. Is there a way to make this only display one dash
between De and i?
supMusic = \notes \relative f' { f2. c4 f8 g a2 g4 a2 r4 }
supWords = \lyrics { A -- gnus De - - - i, }
2) Second question is with position of the lyrics. I have tried really hard
to read the documentation and mailling list archives but have been unable to
find my answer. I copied and modified the satb.ly template to give myself 3
staves. The problem is, all my lyrics are printing above the staff and I
want them below. How do I do this? Below is my actual source code.
Thank you so much for your time and patience!
\header {
title = "Mass for Three Voices"
composer = "William Byrd"
}
supMusic = \notes \relative f' { f2. c4 f8 g a2 g4 a2 r4 }
supWords = \lyrics { A -- gnus De - - - i, }
altusMusic = \notes \relative c' { }
altusWords =\lyrics { }
bassMusic = \notes \relative c { }
bassWords = \lyrics { }
\score {
\notes <<
\context Lyrics = superius { s1 }
\context Staff = superius <<

Who can help me?

Many fake/real books are written out this way, and I would like to be
able to duplicate this.
As Han said, this isn't a good idea. But if you really want to, use
invisible 32nd notes in each bar (include them in an extra voice
on the same staff).
Also, is there a way to break every 4 measures automatically without
manually inserting \break?
Include the following section in your piece; again, as an extra
voice on the same staff. Change the number to suit the length
of your piece.
\repeat unfold 8 {s1 s s s \break }
You could merge both solutions into one line. But again, I
don't think that measure the same width is a good idea.

tweaking output in 2.3.16
Hi, As a means of learning the 'inner' workings of lilypond, I've been trying to reproduce the exact layout of some complex scores. I've read through the manual and in consultation with the Program Reference area, I've been able to adjust the default layout quite well to suit my needs. However, there are two areas that I can't seem to find a solution - slurs and spanners (specifically, hairpins and trills). Regarding the manual positioning of slurs, I have found the height-limit property of the Slur object to be useful in extending the arc of the slur (to avoid collisions with some elements), but, I can't seem to find a way to adjust the positioning of the end points of the slur (i.e. closer to, or further away from the notehead). In the reference for 2.2.6, there is an attachment-offset property that seems to handle this sort of adjustment, but it does not appear in the 2.3.16 reference. Is there are way to do this in 2.3.x? Secondly, I would like to be able to tweak the length of spanner objects (specifically the Hairpin and TrillSpanner). I don't seem to see any reference to a property that allows for this - is it possible? Thanks for any help!
