There are two kinds of polymetric music AFAIK: "real" polymetric pieces, where the timeSignature are always different between parts, and "false" polymetric pieces, where such a method is just used temporarily, as a special effect, for a more or less short section. As Mats pointed out, adding bar numbers in a polymetric piece of the first kind would be somehow pointless. In a piece of the second kind, you may use a function such as: http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=333 However, if have a snippet to propose to make this whole thing more self-explanatory, it could be great :) Cheers, Valentin _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
