Hello, I must be missing something obvious. I have been trying to get lilypond 2.9.14 to print bar numbers every 5 measures instead of at the beginning of each line. I have read the manual and looked at the example in bar-number-every-five-reset.ly but everything I have tried either has no effect or makes bar numbers disappear entirely.
Below is the source of the song I am typesetting. I would like bar numbers to show above the top staff every 5 measures. Any help would be appreciated.
