R2. is a full bar rest in 3/4 time (a dotted 2/4 rest that is). For 4/4 you just use R1, and multiply with the number of bars, like in R1*8 for 8 bars. There's still a problem though -- look at this example #(define (whiteunder grob) (grob-interpret-markup grob (markup #:vcenter #:whiteout #:pad-x 1 (ly:grob-property grob 'text)))) inlineMMRN = { \once \override Score.MultiMeasureRest #'layer = #-2 \once \override Score.MultiMeasureRestNumber #'layer = #-1 \once \override Score.MultiMeasureRestNumber #'Y-offset = #0 \once \override Score.MultiMeasureRestNumber #'stencil = #whiteunder } solos = { \override Score.MultiMeasureRest #'minimum-length = #20 \bar "|:" \inlineMMRN R1*4 \inlineMMRN R1*4 \bar ":|" } { << \new ChordNames \chordmode { s1 a1*4:m7 b:m7-5 } \new Staff { \time 4/4 s1 \set Score.markFormatter = #format-mark-box-alphabet \set Score.skipBars = ##t \override MultiMeasureRest #'expand-limit = 1 \solos } >> } How can we center the chord symbols above the inlineMMR's? Also: Does anybody know how to produce the `fat bracketed' repeat bars often used in jazz (example in the Real Book exerpt attached to Tim's first mail in this thread)?
