Apologies in advance -- I'm not going to be much help! Number one: check section 6.7.4 of the manual under 'Manual Repeats'. If you manually specify the repeat (I agree, it's an ugly way to do it) you can use a markup to specify the volta text, and change the font using a markup. I can't figure out how to do it automatically and/or globally. (For the record, I think Lily's default behaviour looks far better, although your example does show an ugly near collision between chord name and volta text.) Number two... hmm, I agree. Can't help though. The main reason I'm replying is to respond to number three. IIRC This has been discussed on the list a few times, so you might like to check the archives. However, I did notice that your example doesn't have a vertical line either. -- ============================================= Cameron Horsburgh ============================================= _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
