repeat volta with partial, alternative endings and different \time in different voices

2015-08-10 Thread Jonathan Scholbach

When you use key signatures like A major or B Major you end up with a lot of naturals in the score for which you may have to manually add sharps. Is there a switch that will automatically sharp all the naturals? David, in a previous thread some time ago on a similar topic I think I recall that
