Hi Folks, I'm probably missing something blindingly obvious, but I have the following problem. Using RoseGarden, I have exported a simple piece of music, and would now like to tidy up just one or two bars. These bars are 7/8 bars, and I need an alternative beaming structure. Output from RoseGarden: \time 7/8 c'' 16 d'' d'' a' d'' d'' c'' d'' d'' d'' e'' d'' e'' fis'' What I (think) I need, following the manual: \time 7/8 [c'' 16 d'' d''] [a' d'' d''] [c'' d'' d'' d''] [e'' d'' e'' fis''] However, when I run this (and the rest of the score) through lilypond, it exits with the following error: ClassicReelSet.ly:77:16: error: syntax error, unexpected '[' [c'' 16 d'' d''] [a' d'' d''] [c'' d'' d'' d''] [e'' d'' e'' fis''] ClassicReelSet.ly:13:4: error: errors found, ignoring music expression Why is this "unexpected"? Isn't this how to do manual beaming? Note that this section is properly enclosed in a \context Voice = "voice 0" { ... } % Voice tag, so I don't think that that is the problem. Many thanks for any help, Ed Bradburn
