Hello Lilyponders! For the kind of music I mostly typeset, it is common to have alternative bars or even alternative notes in the middle of a measure. At the moment I handle this by setting score.repeatCommands like so:
% Used when substituting a single bar or just a few notes to show alternative. altBracket = #(define-music-function (parser location tag) (string?) #{ \set Score.repeatCommands = #(list (list 'volta (markup #:text tag))) #}) % End previous altBracket thingy. altBracketEnd = { \set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f)) } And use it like: ... music \altBracket "1." music \altBracket "2." music \altBracketEnd This works, but the result looks a bit different from \repeat volta ... \alternative I'd appreciate any hints on how to get the same font and bracket look as with \repeat volta. Thanks, Sven Axelsson -- ++++++++++[>++++++++++>+++++++++++>++++++++++>++++++ >++++<<<<<-]>++++.+.++++.>+++++.>+.<<-.>>+.>++++.<<. +++.>-.<<++.>>----.<++.>>>++++++.<<<<.>>++++.<----.
