Music expressions can be invoked any number of times (including zero) and in arbitrary order. Putting ly:expect-warning inside of a music expression suggests that trigger and suppression of the warning are linked. However, the trigger of the warning occurs when the music expression is actually interpreted (and even then, it might be triggered by different phases of interpretation) while the suppression is registered at the moment ly:expect-warning is read from the input file. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
