Dear M-Tx/PMX/MusicTeX-perts, I usually write notes to rock-, pop-, folk- and childrens-songs in Arragements for guitar / keyboard / piano / accordeon and am using - M-Tx 0.63 - musixcrd.tex v1.7 - PMX Version 2.83 - musixtex.lua version 0.19 - pdfTeX Version 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.16 from MiKTeX 2.9 64-bit for that purpose at the time.
My first question is, whether there is a possibility to raise Voltas higher above the staffs than their default position is. As you can see in the attached pdf - which is a compilation of the M-Tx-code stated below the signing of this e-mail - the Volta-line crushes into the chord-symbols and the g-Note in bar 4. I didn't find any hints about raising Voltas in the M-Tx and PMX-documentation so far and would be clad if somebody could help me with that task. Another problem occurs, when a volta-change, a meter-change and a line-break are neccessary at the same bar-break. As you can see, the volta-number "2." can be found at the end of line 1, where the meter-change is (of course correctly) stated, instead of the beginning of line 2, where the first bar of Volta 2 starts. In my interpretation this is not the intended behaviour, or am I wrong in that? If I'm right, is there a bug-fix or a work-around for that situation? Thanks for your great job for musictex and your help! Greetings Simon PS: I also attached the M-Tx-made pmx-file cause I assume it could be helpful. PPS: I already tried to send this mail two weeks ago, but did not receive it myself, although my account-settings say, I'm supposed to. It also doesn't appear on https://www.mail-archive.com/tex-music@tug.org/ So I assume, something did go wrong. I hope, you did not receive this former mail, and apologize in the case, you did, for the double mailing.
