Add another +1! With a Gregorian chant caveat or two... When using modern notation for Gregorian chant tunes, Lilypond sometimes gets confused and allows a line to run off the page. When this happens, I insert a "visual break" as needed, and then adjust at the end.
I find that inserting a single break often fixes the problem for the rest of the chant, with the possible exception of the last line. Karen P.S. When dealing with a long multi-verse chants and plainsongs, I sometimes insert breaks based on where the verses break. > On Jun 14, 2016, at 11:42 AM, tisimst <tisimst.lilyp...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> On Tue, Jun 14, 2016 at 11:21 AM, Martin Tarenskeen [via Lilypond] <[hidden >> email]> wrote: >> In my experience it's often better to wait with adding \break commands until >> the score is complete.
