Subject: Polymetric music and page breaks



Dear Collective Wisdom,

I posted here about a year ago about my piece. You were all very helpful and
I hope you can help me once again. Yes, it's the same pesky piece.

I've entered all the parts and need to finish editing it. I can't seem to
get it to paginate properly. I've tried inserting \bar "" judiciously and
\break judiciously, but to no avail. Attached is a minimal example, which is
still rather large, due to having eight parts. This example does not have
any \bar "" or \break commands.

Any help is appreciated!

cheers,
Andrea

It looks to me that your problem stems from the way you are changing time signatures independently in each staff. By default, Lilypond expects timing to be consistent across a score. I'd suggest reading http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond/Displaying-rhythms#Polymetric-notation to see if you can change this to your satisfaction.
