This is the topic of a recent thread, which you might find helpful: http://www.mail-archive.com/lilypond-user@gnu.org/msg74895.html >> How can I add a counter starting at a measure n and counting to measure >> n+x? This should not be the current bar number but an arbitrary counter. If >> this is not supported, how can I place the counter numbers to the middle of >> the piano staff? There is a measure counter currently in the review process, so hopefully at some point it will make it into the code base. In the meantime, you can find a version of this code which can be included in your .ly file in the discussion of that issue. See the file attached to comment #21 at http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2445 . Understand that this version might cause problems if you're running a batch of files (which won't happen with the version that's in the review process.) The engraver could be added to a Dynamics context, or you could put it in one of the Staff contexts and adjust the positioning. Hope this helps.
