Cadenza question

How do I get my cadenzas to maintain bar numbers?  LilyPond halts numbering bars until after I turn off the cadenza, and I don't want that.  Example:bar 55 | cadenza | bar 56I want:bar 55 | (bar 56 cadenza) | bar 57Thanks in advance! How low will we go? Check out Yahoo! Messenger’s low PC-to-Pho

Re: lilypond-book

That's weird! Are you sure that you run latex and not pdflatex (apparently, since you say that you convert from .tex to .dvi also otherwise)? What TeX installation do you use? I have only tried MikTeX on Windows, but TeXLive should work as well, as far as I can understand. /Mats bubba wrote:

Just follow the instructions in the manual on how to run latex, dvips and ps2pdf (actually, to be able to run ps2pdf, you also need to add C:\Program Files\LilyPond\usr\share\ghostscript\8.50\lib\ to the path). /Mats bubba wrote: Mats, You have definately helped me. I've now gotten lilypon
