Adding Rehearsal Marks, v2.12.2
Apologies...I'm sure this is addressed somewhere (...but I did search the documentation and this forum!). How do I add rehearsal letters to an existing score without going through and adding a "\mark" for every letter in every part? Thanks so much!

I looked through that section, but it wasn't clear to me how that solves my
problem.
I'm doing instrumental parts for a double-choir Bach motet. The result will
be 9 parts (2 each of Vln I, Vln II, Vla, Cello + Double Bass). With 30
rehearsal letters in the piece, I don't want to have to do that in 9
separate parts if I can avoid it. Not to mention if (heaven forbid!) there
were any changes.
What I ended up doing was:
1) creating a separate part containing only rests AND the rehearsal letters.
2) I then added this part to my individual part \score { } sections.
3) Finally, I used \override to hide all staves with rests-only.
I just wasn't sure whether there was a better (standard?) way to do this.

Multi-Measure Rests: Adding to what gets printed?
In my orchestral parts, I would like Multi-Measure Rests to have both: (1) an integer representing the number of measures in the current MMR, centered above (default behavior) (2) a second text indicating which measures are included in the given MMR, in parentheses and centered BELOW the MMR. (1) happens automatically. (2) is what I don't know how to do. I'm thinking I would have to figure out how to write a Scheme function to do this, but as I have never written one before, I wanted to know whether there was an existing, non-Scheme solution. As an example, given the following input: %EXAMPLE 1a \time 4/4 \key c \major c4 d e f R1*10 c d e f ...output will generate "10" above the MMR. I would like "( 2 - 11 )" generated automatically and centered below it. If the input were changed to: %EXAMPLE 1b \time 4/4 \key c \major c4 d e f c d e f c d e f R1*10 c d e f ...then the output should remain "10" above but change to "( 4 - 13 )" below the MMR. As an additional wrinkle, if Rehearsal Letter "A" happened to fall at mm. 9, Example 1b should output 2 MMRs ( |--4--| and |--6--|) with "( 4 - 7 )" and "( 8 - 13 )" below.

Re: Multi-Measure Rests: Adding to what gets printed?
Alexander,
I've modified the BarNumberStaff code as you suggested. I also changed one
line in your \layout block. I commented out the Mark_engraver as I was
getting double boxed rehearsal letters:
%\consists Mark_engraver
The only remaining issue is the positioning of the text that results from
your function. It is currently being placed above the number (which is
above the MMR). I tried to adjust some of the Y-offset and Y-extent
numbers, but could only get the text to move up. I would like for it to
print below the MMR (but keeping the number of measures in the MMR above the
MMR). Something like the following:
6
|-|
( 121 - 126 )
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Randy

Re: Multi-Measure Rests: Adding to what gets printed?
Alexander,
One other thing. Your code does solve the "additional wrinkle" I referred
to. In the attached, at letter I, you will see that a 20 MMR is broken up
by Rehearsal Letter "I" and your function calcs the 2 contiguous MMR ranges
correctly and attaches them.

Re: Multi-Measure Rests: Adding to what gets printed?
Alexander,
I don't have time to look into this, but wanted you to be aware: I went
ahead and used the BarNumberStaff rather than the BarNumberVoice. In trying
to adjust the Y-Offset of the BarNumberVoice, it moves the lyrics down as
well. The BarNumberStaff does not.
\new BarNumberVoice \with {
\override MultiMeasureRestNumber #'Y-offset = #-7
\override MultiMeasureRestNumber #'font-size = #-2 }
{ \compressFullBarRests \global \TemplateMelody }

\partcombine and positioning of soloText, soloIIText and aDueText
Anyone know how to tweak/adjust the positioning of the 3 text values associated with \partcombine? Specifically, I'd like to have an override at the beginning of my musical expression that puts soloIIText below the staff while leaving soloText above the staff.

Re: your MultiMeasureRest utility
Alexander, Well, to Carl's comment, I am not actually putting a full-measure rest in a partial measure. The last full-measure rest (R2.) completely fills bar 151, which is in 3/4 time. While the error message doesn't tell us what exactly causes the bar-check error, it SHOULD be caused by the following 1/4-note partial measure that precedes m. 152 (in the new 4/4 time section), NOT the dotted 1/2-note in the previous time signature. In other words, if I were to truncate the input file after the dotted 1/2-note in m. 151, but before the partial measure, and truncate the MultiMeasure template voice at the same spot, I would expect the part to print properly with no error. Which of course leads me to ask, "does Lilypond, once it sees the 1/4-note pickup to the new section, go back and consider the dotted 1/2 note that came before + this 1/4-note as 1 full measure in the new time signature? If so, then Carl's comment would explain the error. Whatever the case, I agree with you that we now have a good sense for the issue here and the error can be ignored. Thanks for the reply!
