I got this habit working with big bands. They don't use them there often, but I wish they did. I have a small of markers at hand to highlight repeats, key changes, tempo changes, the most notable dynamics, segnos, codas etc, and I always wanted to highlight the beginning and ending of a repeated section, to avoid on the job mistakes, esp. if I had to sightread hard material on stage. So, I grew to like them. It forms an nice little entity there for my eyes, start here, finish there... -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Possible-multiple-bugs%2C-any-way-around--tp33975473p33983806.html Sent from the Gnu - Lilypond - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
