If I leave out the lyrics from the example below, Lilypond sets the notes nicely reporting no errors or warnings. When I include the lyrics, Lilypond counts the measure in the second volta wrong. One, it now reports:
7-8.ly:11:40: warning: barcheck failed at: 7/8 \volta 2 { g2\repeatTie e2 | } Two, it now incorrectly sets a bar line between the two notes in the second volta, close to the first note, and no bar line at the end of the piece. I suspect that the bar line is set 1/8 into the second volta. This seems to agree with its position and with the warning message. I expect that one can work around it (which I haven’t attempted yet). \version "2.24.4" \score { << \new Voice = "one" { \relative { \repeat volta 2 { g'1 ~ | \alternative { \volta 1 { g2 r4. g8 | } \volta 2 { g2\repeatTie e2 | } } } } } \addlyrics { \repeat volta 2 { Ah, \alternative { \volta 1 { ah, } \volta 2 { _ oh. } } } } >> } Sent with Proton Mail secure email.
