Number on first page - solution

2005-03-24 Thread David Rogers
Hi all I've gotten Lilypond 2.5.16 on Mac OS X to omit the page number on page 1, by adding an extra \on-the-fly #not-first-page to the beginning of line 86 (i.e. the line that now says \fromproperty #'page:page-number-string) in /sw/share/lilypond/2.5.16/ly/titling-init.ly I hope this helps

I just said that you should change: r1*2 to r1.*2 I just noticed that this leads to have a blank measure instead of a second measure of rest. If I use: r1. r I get two measures of dotted whole note rests. Doing: R1.*2 Prints two full measure (non-dotted whole note) rests. -David On Thu, 2
