1) If it seemed I was complaining about lilypond behavior my apologies, not
at all.
2) I paid much attention writing my question but, again my apologies, it
was not clear.
Let me try again with a different example.
Sometimes I have an excerpt of music that occurs multiple time in a piece.
It occurs identically in many place except at the end of the score where
the last note of the excerpt should be a pause (it is just an example).
Without tag I would do something like this:
excerpt = {a b c' d'}
excerptB = {a b c' r}
{
% .... some music
\excerpt
% .... some music
\excerpt
% .... some music
\excerptB
}
If I want to write the same thing with tag I would write:
\version "2.19.81"
excerpt = {
a b c'
\tag #'withd d'
\tag #'withr r
}
{
% .... some music
\keepWithTag #'withd \excerpt
% .... some music
\keepWithTag #'withd \excerpt
% .... some music
\keepWithTag #'withr \excerpt
}
This is ok.
Is there any way to obtain the same thing writing:
{
% .... some music
\excerpt
% .... some music
\excerpt
% .... some music
\keepWithTag #'withr \excerpt
}
Thank you, g.
