Re: piano with melody and lyrics and a chorus with two verses and volta
Did you see the example at the end of 7.3.7 More stanzas?
I guess what you need is not necessarily Voice context composed
of two consecutive Voice context, you just need them to be in
the same stave (i.e. in the same Staff context), right?

Re: Why aren't repeats unfolded automatically in MIDI?
One reason is that the MIDI output, at least initially, only was intended for proof listening a score, not to produce any musically pleasing output. In such a situation, you clearly don't want to listen to the repeats. Regarding realizations of pralls, trills and so on, I hope you realize that there is no single correct realization of each such ornament. So, I would judge it extremely hard to implement something that produces a MIDI output that is pleasing to listen to, especially considering all the treatises from the baroque era that describes how all playing and ornamentation should be done according to the good taste. /Mats Raphael Manfredi wrote: What is the technical reason for repeats to not be automatically played (i.e. unfolded) as many times as necessary in the MIDI output?

Re: Rehearsal mark on time signature
I have several times suggested to replace the term Rehearsal Mark
with something like Text Mark, to point out that \mark is not only
useful for rehearsal marks but to typeset any textual indications above
a bar lines or at the beginning of a score line. My only point was that
it doesn't make sense to talk about bug when there is no clear right
or wrong behaviour.
liang seng wrote:
Hi, I suppose you're right. As outlined in the manual, since rehearsal
marks are centrally aligned, overriding this with left or right align
will have no effect.
If you want to change the alignment of a rehearsal mark, just do
\once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'self-alignment-X = #left
The fine detail that is solved by setting
\override Score.RehearsalMark #'X-offset = #0.0
is that otherwise the left edge of the text will be aligned to the
center of the time signature not to the left edge of the time signature.
I've been thinking, if that's the case, should we introduce a new grob
which governs the tempo marking that is not centrally aligned by default?
It's actually fairly easy to add a new command, like \leftalignedmark,
yourself, using def-music-function. See sections 11.1.3, 11.1.6 and
the example lily-in-scheme.ly in Regression Test.

Hi, if that works, then it's great. (Since 2.7.19 isn't released yet

However, for the first rehearsal mark, the need to use the command

is still a bug somewhere. Can it be fixed?
Why do you consider it a bug? Rehersal marks (at least in their literal
meaning)
are normally typeset center aligned over a bar line. I cannot see any
reason to
consider it right or wrong that a rehearsal mark at the beginning of a
line is
center aligned or left aligned over a time signature or clef or whatever.
As has already been pointed out earlier, if you look at printed scores
you will
probably find that it differs from company to company and from edition to
edition.
I think I may responsible for making this thread a little confusing.
For some time I've thought it would be a good idea to be able to align
tempo indications right at the start of the piece with the first time
signature in an explicit way (ie, without #'extra-offset).
I worked out the request with HW and sponsored the work as a way of
positioning *marks* in new and better ways ... not because I was
particularly interested in true, boxed rehearsal makes but because I
was (erroneously) thinking of \mark text as the way of placing tempo
indications (like Allegro) at the beginning of the a piece! What I
probably should have done was sponsor new and better ways of
positioning *markup* (rather than *mark*) so that you could say things
like
time 2/4^\markup {Allegro.}
BUT: the good part is that you can now in 2.7.20 say
time 2/4 \mark Allegro
and get beautiful results.
So my mistake: I said mark when I should've said markup; but the
recent work generalizing the position of marks is, indeed, very much
appreciated and it gives me exactly that ability to position an
initial tempo indication perfectly with an initial time signature (if
in a somewhat unconventional way!).

Re: Roadmap to lily code
Regarding scheme, I can't really help you and would welcome additional explanations. However, in general, the easiest way to learn Lilypond (or at least what worked for me) is to go to the mutopia website and download lilypond sources. Copy and paste until you get comfortable starting from scratch (at which point you'll probably continue copying and pasting because you may find that it takes less time). Also, the LSR (lilypond snippet repository) can be quite useful, but unfortunately, I have not spent enough time there to tell you how useful it is.

Hi Graham,
one more question:
the triplets in the attachment should not be connected. What can I do?
Please keep lilypond emails on the mailing list. That way other people
can help or get help from the answers.
By connected, do you mean beamed? If so, see the manual about beams.
If you want to remove the triplet bracket, it's a bit more
complicated, and I don't know how to do it. I would start by reading
the chapter on changing defaults, though.
