I just realized that the total musical length of music expressions is established _before_ iteration (and some manipulations require it to be known), while the varying measure length is established by properties set _during_ iteration. So whatever the syntax: no can do. Surprising as that may seem. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
