A question about PartCombiner

2006-11-06 Thread Gianluca D.

Strange behaviour of breakbefore option

2006-06-28 Thread Gianluca D.
Hi everybody! I'm using lilypond version 2.8.4. I was trying to use the "breakbefore" option in the "header" block inside a "score" to make the second score of my book start on a new page, but I couldn't afford it. So, trying on a little test file, I've discovered that "breakbefore" apparent
