I thought the advice you were given was fairly clear. Lilypond will only break a line when there is a break in the music with all the music in the piece. In the piece you have provided, the upper staff and the lower staff never cease at the same point. In other words, the bar breaks need to line up for a line break to occur. Not to mention the fact that a semi-breve makes little sense in a single bar with a time signature of 1/7, nor all the other 1/x signatures. Perhaps you could describe what you're trying to achieve?

After consulting this post, I moved the timing translator and bar line engraver out of the score context and into the staff context. While the midi compiles properly, the music in the pdf runs off the page. Lilypond says that the bar checks in the top voice are failing. I suspect that this is the root of the problem. I've run versions of the code with each of the two voices commented out. When the voices play separately, the pdf output stays on the page. Something about combining the two voices is problematic. I'm genuinely at a loss, since moving the timing translator to the staff context should make the voices completely independent. Any advice? -Michael Echo.ly ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
