>I am not top-posting I am using a compoundMeter - 5/4 + 2/4. I would like to see a bar line after 5 quarter notes (and after 7 quarter notes). Plus I would like Completion_heads_engraver to recognize the bar line after the 5 quarter notes.
I was able to artificially achieve getting the bar lines by adding a silent voice with those bar lines. However I was not able to find anything that would make the fifth note g2 in the following example to be automatically replaced by g4~g4 [tied quarter notes] as happens for the seventh note where a2 is replaced by a4~a4. Also, in the code below, I tried to prevent the time signature from printing - does not seem to work for compoundMeter. Also not sure why I got a couple of extra staff lines, plus how it got the 7/4 meter for the extra staves. \version "2.18.2" fooBar = { s1 s4\bar "!" s2 \bar "||" } music = \relative c' {c4 d e f g2 a b4 c c b a g2 f4 e d c b a g a b} \score { << \override Staff.TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f \compoundMeter #'((5 4) (2 4) ) \set Timing.beatStructure = #'(5 2 ) \new Voice = "theBarLines" { \fooBar \fooBar \bar "|." } \new voice \music \shiftDurations #1 #0 {\music} >> } \layout { \context { \Voice \remove Note_heads_engraver \remove Rest_engraver \consists Completion_heads_engraver \consists Completion_rest_engraver } } _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
