Hello folks,
I have been preparing several scores where it is useful to have the ability to have numbered multi-rest bars rather than, say, 32 full bar rests. I have been able to implement this using the following setting as described in the manual:-
\set Score.skipBars = ##t
The only problem is that sometimes I can get it to work for me, but other times not, and I have been unable to figure out why. For example, the following source does not work, the bars come out fully expanded:-
\header {
\include "header.ly"
subtitle = "Clarinet (Vocal Version)"
}\include "notes.ly"
\score {
\notes <<
\time 4/4
\set Score.markFormatter
= #(lambda (mark context)
(make-bold-markup (make-box-markup
(make-markletter-markup (1- mark))))) {
% Bb Instruments
<<
\context ChordNames {
\set chordChanges = ##t
\transpose bes c'
\Changes
}
\context Staff {
\key d \major
\clef treble
\set Score.skipBars = ##t
\transpose bes c''
{\Intro \notes{r2 \bar"||" R1*11 r2} \LeadBreak R1*8}
}
>>
}
>> \midi { \tempo 4=140 } \paper{
papersize = "a4"
indent = 0
}
}--------------------------------------------------------------
But the source below does work as expected. I seem to have reached a brick wall in trying to figure out why, so any help would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance, Jennifer.
\header {
\include "header.ly"
\include "directions.ly"
subtitle = "Tenor Sax"
}% \include "english.ly" \include "notes.ly"
\score {
\notes <<
\time 4/4
\set Score.markFormatter
= #(lambda (mark context)
(make-bold-markup (make-box-markup
(make-markletter-markup (1- mark))))) {
<<
\context ChordNames {
\set Staff.midiInstrument = "acoustic piano"
\set chordChanges = ##t
%\transpose bes c'
%\Changes
}
\context Staff {
\set Staff.midiInstrument = "tenor sax"
#(set-accidental-style 'modern-cautionary)
\key c \major
\clef treble
\set Score.skipBars = ##t
\transpose c c'
{\TenorSax}
}
%\lyricsto "" \new Lyrics \lyrics { the text }
>>
}
>>\include "settings.ly" }
