In lilypond, "1" is always the duration of a whole NOTE, not a whole measure. Lilypond makes the durations take priority over the measure marks, which is why | only gives a warning if it's in the wrong place. And as Arvid pointed out, R1. is probably better than R4*6. ~ John Williams _______________________________________________ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
