Hello,
I have found a peculiar thing concerning multi measure rests. In trying to use
R1 to center a full rest in a partial bar of a piece the rest disappears when R1
is used as R1*1/4 in order to create the correct duration of the rest.
Below is the relevant snippet.
\version 2.12.0
Trying it out myself it occurred to me that what you're possibly running
into is that full bar rests need to occupy full bars. I haven't checked
the docs on that matter but I'd bet that's the reason. If you change
your R1*1/4 o r1*1/4 you'll get a whole rest. It won't be centered
without
It seems that you spend large efforts on scaling all durations, just to
be able to obtain the desired time signature. The same result can be
obtained much easier as shown in the following examples. Also, the
solution to your multimeasure rest problem is probably easiest to solve
by changing
The following *.ly snippet:
\version 2.5.24
\score {
\relative c {
\set Score.skipBars = ##t
R1*9
}
}
Produces this console output:
