Help! I sent this (slightly different, actually) to the list yesterday, and got no response, and didn't see my own message. Did it go through?
I'm running LY 2.11.53 under Windows XP SP3.
I've spent 8 or 10 hours trying to puzzle this out, unsuccessfully.
I'm trying to print out sets of tunes (similar to an etude book), with the
name of the set and the performers at the top of page one, with the name of
the tune and the meter flush right above the tune itself (without the name
of the set and the performers repeating over each tune), and with no tune
running over onto a second page unless the tune itself is longer than one
page. I've got two tunes here, and I can't figure out how to get the setup
to work. I also get a funny error message and a barcheck warning. I'm also
attaching the log file and the pdf.
I got rid of the barcheck warning, as well as an error saying I needed a
\paper block. However, I cannot figure out how to get the titleing I
described in the above paragraph.
Thanks for your help,
Ralph
