Folks,can someone please explain to me why the following code { \compressEmptyMeasures c'4 4 4 4 | 4 4 4 4 | 4 4 4 4 | 4 4 4 4 | \break R4*120 | \break c'4 4 4 4 | 4 4 4 4 | 4 4 4 4 | 4 4 4 4 | c'4 4 4 4 | 4 4 4 4 | 4 4 4 4 | 4 4 4 4 | c'4 4 4 4 | 4 4 4 4 | 4 4 4 4 | 4 4 4 4 | c'4 4 4 4 | 4 4 4 4 | 4 4 4 4 | 4 4 4 4 | } causes such an uneven formatting after the multi-measure? And is there a work-around available? Werner
Hi,
(Excuse the bad email threading, which will get fixed next time I reply.)
Interesting. The example can be made even more minimal, without
\compressEmptyMeasures:
{
c'1
\break
\repeat unfold 35 { c'1 }
}
This produces the same bad output in 2.20. In 2.18, the output
is still suboptimal, but different (files attached).
A workaround would be
\paper {
page-breaking = #ly:minimal-breaking
}
Both ly:optimal-page-breaking and ly:page-turn-breaking are faulty;
ly:one-page-breaking is not.
