Hi, Sorry if this is covered in the manual, I can't find it anywhere. Is it possible to insert pieces of text anywhere within the score? I'm thinking about comments and whatnot and it would be useful to be able to place them wherever. If this is not possible, what are the possibilities in L

Aaron, What I, and I think many others do, is to create one or more files with the common stuff. Then include those files into a file that contains a score block and references to the specific pieces that you want from the common source. You can have several different top level files, for exampl

I would say it all depends on when the music was written, what edition you use as a a starting point and on the purpose of your own edition.

You could easily have different header information in different score blocks, just say \score{ ... \header{ title = "The title for this particular score block" ... } } If you want different annotations within the music, it's easiest to put them in separate definition annotationsVersio
