Hello, I went into a trouble trying to globally modify a context property. One of the purposes was to turn off the auto-beaming feature. According to NR 5.1.4, I keyed in :
\version "2.11.47" \layout { %% global layout, before any \score \context { \Staff \remove Time_signature_engraver %% ok \override InstrumentName #'self-alignment-X = #RIGHT %% ok % \set autoBeaming = ##f %% syntax error ! } } I finally went to add the following to achieve it : \layout { \context { \Voice \remove Auto_beam_engraver } } I also noticed that including \set autoBeaming = ##f in a local-to-score \layout {} neither works. Neither the exemple with fontSize given in NR 5.1.4 works. Later on, NR 5.1.4 states that the \set keyword is optional. I strip it out and... voilĂ ! No more syntax error. So : don't use the \set keyword in a \layout block. Is this a regression, or a doc issue ? Cheers, Germain
