Hi all,
In the attached snippet, I must adjust the [non-visual] duration of the whole
note and manually add an explicit \bar "" command in order to break the line
where I want it.
Is there any way to avoid this? I'd like to say, in effect, "during this
passage, every (e.g.) eighth note should be considered a breakable point for
the purposes of layout calculations". All notes would maintain their original
duration (at least visually), all beaming would stay as expected, etc. — it
would just allow breaking "everywhere". A command like
\override Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn.line-break-interval = #(ly:make-moment
1/8)
would be amazing. I do a lot of polymetric passages, some with mixed meters on
each staff, so doing layout work becomes a challenge when you have to keep
adjusting durations, adding \bar-s, etc.
Any thoughts/comments would be appreciated — code that solves my problem, even
more so!
Thanks,
Kieren.
