In other words, it looks like this F C S =====|=====|=====|= | | | | F | | C | A =====|=====|=====|= | | | | F | | C | T =====|=====|=====|= | | | | F | | C | B =====|=====|=====|= (In case that's not clear | = barline, F = fermata, C = caesura, = = staff) In the manuscript, the fermata and caesura are directly on top of barline in the ATB parts. I've killed myself trying to get this to work. Does anyone have any ideas on how to do it? I'm using Lilypond 2.4.5. Many thanks!
