Hello,

I want to see exactly what shows this minimal example, except that the
"space" is not desired.
This is from an hymn melody and I do the SATB setting. So I would like
to have the original "optic". And with so short repeats, it doesnt
make sense to enlarge the alternative.
Now, without the s8, the half-note of alternative 2. begins in the
remaining half-beat and so the rest of the song.
Thats why.
Thanks in advance

Franck
