Hello again, An update to my earlier question. I'm engraving a piece now that uses 5/4 and 6/4 time signatures. I have a full measure rest for one of each time signatures. I'd like to have a single rest note for those measures, not "r1 r4" and not "r1 r2". How to do that? What about "9/8"

Hi Lukas, Funny I sent an email to the author (as on his website) Lukas but it bounced and he seemed to have vanished from the internet in 2011 I then realize how stupid I was as Lukas has been posting here all the time. I now realize it's worse than that, sorry for my confusion :) Appreciate you

Hi, sorry for the messed-up formatting. I try again: This is probably a very stupid question. During my work on updating blackmensural.ly I had to deal with custom grob and context properties. The original source for 2.12 did the following: %% ===
