Bar lines in polyphonic music and words under split voices
I have been working on a piece of music for some time now and cannot seem to get the following to happen. 1. vocal parts with different measure lengths. Lilypond always seems to want to line bars up especially when one bar now has six beats from four or changes. 2. attach words to a split vocal line of the form << {}\\ {}>> lilypond seems to want to just skip over it and go to the next "normal" part.

Engrave error
Opened Frescobaldi today and got a 62097 error when I tried to engrave. Does anyone know what this means and how I can fix it? Thank you, Spencer ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
FW: Whole measure rests in Compound duple meter
Can't figure out why sometimes these don't go through From: vegasart...@hotmail.com To: lilypond-user@gnu.org Subject: Whole measure rests in Compound duple meter Date: Tue, 9 Dec 2014 15:46:14 -0800 Trying to figure out the notation for whole measure rests in 6/8 time. My work around right now is r2. which seems to fill up the measure but I find this aesthetically unpleasant. Is there another way.

Volta and alternative problems
Trying to create a second ending in a piano score (am using Frescobaldi) found the documentation and thought I had followed it to the letter but am getting an error; unexpected \alternative {.

Adding horizontal space
How can I add horizontal space both after the music and after each stanza. My score seems too cramped. \markup { \column{ \line{ Verse 4. } thank you ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
RE: Adding horizontal space
Ok sorry, this is what I am using to put additional stanzas under my music. I was wondering what I need to add to get the additional space after the music and between the stanzas without being criticized for putting too much code in my question.

Meter change question revision
thank you for the replies. My problem more specifically is that I am trying to change meteres midstream. So the piece is unmetered as handwritten. But it starts in a basic 4/4 but then only specific bars on specific staves change meters. If I could go unmetered and insert bar lines as needed that would be best, other wise I need to change for example the soprano line from 4/4 to 6/4 while the other lines stay the same or change to something like 7/4. The quarter notes all line up so in a sense it is not a polyrhythm nor does it change from simple to compound. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
