Peter,

 

Try taking the "a, b, and c" out of the second ending, i, e, 

\alternative { {g f e g }{g }} 

a b c

Subject: Why warning: cannot end volta spanner?

 

This rather follows on from
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2016-02/msg00014.html>
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2016-02/msg00014.html and

I am trying to do a similar thing with a volta repeat: a longish 1st time
section without a long 2nd time volta indication. I tried to set the
voltaSpannerDuration but this gives an error "cannot end volta spanner",
which I don't understand. Is there a way of doing this without getting an
error? It seems that LP tries to put the same number of bards into the 2nd
time as the 1st time. A quick straw poll of printed music implies that the
norm for the final alternative is a single bar. Is this a bug or am I
missing something?

A minimal example follows.

\version "2.18.2"

\language "english"

\score {
 \new Staff {

   \time 4/4
   \clef treble

   \relative c''
   {
     c1
     \repeat volta 2 {
       c d e f
     }
     \alternative {
       {
         g f e d
       }
       {
         \set Score.voltaSpannerDuration = #(ly:make-moment 4/4)
         g a b c
       }
     }
     b a g
   }
 }
}

Peter
