Ming, I agree that the way you have your input file organized is a bit difficult to read, and (I would argue) pretty unorthodox.
I was a little curious about the difference in the output, but I'm afraid I can't offer a solution, only some observations after looking at it. In my tinkering, it seemed to be associated with the time signature. In the example below (and attached), I get the same behavior you do, where the second score has the left-hand part continuing past the apparent end of its voice(s). Additionally, there is inconsistency about the beaming of the eighth notes between the two scores. However, if I change the time signature to 4/4 (and change R2. to R1 in the right hand), both scores produce the same output. Would anyone be able to elaborate if this is expected behavior? \version "2.19.32" right = \relative c' { \time 3/4 R2.*6 } left = \relative c { \time 3/4 << {r4 d8 e r4} \\ {r4 b8 c r4} >> } xLeft = \relative c { \time 3/4 r4 << {d8 e} \\ {b8 c} >> r4 } \score { \new PianoStaff << \new Staff \right \new Staff { \clef bass \left } >> } \score { \new PianoStaff << \new Staff \right \new Staff { \clef bass \xLeft } >> } On Fri, Mar 18, 2016 at 9:25 AM, MING TSANG <tsan...@rogers.com> wrote: > Hi, lilyponder: > > I have a question about coding construct.
