OK, so just to sum up the situation: I now have TimeSignatures aligned with barlines, which is fine for the topmost TimeSig, but not for the "internals" ones between each StaffGroup (since, when occuring at the beginning of a system, they collide with the left barline). Not being able to move *only* those TimeSignatures, here's what I'll do to prevent such collisions: I'll simply kill them :) for the topmost TimeSig, I just specify \override TimeSignature #'break-visibility = #end-of-line-invisible and for the smallest ones inside the systems; \override TimeSignature #'break-visibility = ##(#f #t #f) It sort of works, so I guess this thread is now closed. Many thanks to you guys, particularly Kieren, Neil, Joe, and last but not least, Han-Wen "God" Nienhuys :) Cheers, Valentin _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
