Hello,
I am new to LilyPond and I have a question about the best way to
approach
a problem. I am typesetting some music and the time signature is 4/2. I
would like to modify the behaviour of multi-measure rests to use a breve
rest to represent 1 measure instead of a whole rest since the duration of
1 measure is a breve. I have looked at the church_rest method in
multi-measure-rest.cc and I think I see how to modify it as well as the
symbol_molecule method. I would also have to define a parameter to get
the information to these methods so they would know whether they were using
a whole or breve rest as their base. This seems like a lot of work.
Since one of the nice things about LilyPond is how flexible it is and you
have hooks to get at almost everything, I was wondering if there is a better
way to approach this problem. As I said earlier, I am new to LilyPond and
I don't have a good feel for what is possible without modifying the source.
Thanks,
Kim
