Hi Ed:
These voices are all separate from the voice that contains the
notes just
outside the << \\ >> construct. This should be noted when making
changes at
the voice level. This also means that slurs and ties cannot go
into or out
of a << \\ >> construct.
That's because of the \\ only -- that creates two new Voice contexts,
each different from the main one that existed before the <<>>.
What you *can* do is
a b c\< d << { a b\! c d } \new Voice { g g g g } >>
and things will behave as desired -- the first {} is a continuation
of the main Voice context, and only the \new {} is different/new. See
"Instantiating new voices" in the docs for more info.
Do I need to make the << {} \\ {} >> sections "wider" to cover
multiple
measures, and take out my bar checks for those measures?
That would also work, but you don't have to remove the bar checks.
Hope this helps!
Kieren.
