Re: defintion for metrelessness (help?)

Thanks. But that's what I'm doing *now. I'm trying to save lots of time by obviating the need for it. Perhaps I didn't make that part clear enough. Right now I have a list of predefined barlines, one of which is Z = \bar""\break and I stick that particular one wherever I want the break. That's n

A _slightly_ cleaner option might be to leave barAlways set and put a \noBreak in those spots where a break is unacceptable. If there aren't many, that might be cleaner. But still not very clean, unfortunately. Geoff ___ lilypond-user mailing list lil

You were so close! If you read the details about the \note markup command in "Overview of Text markup commands", you will notice that the second argument is numeric, i.e. it shouldn't be enclosed in double quotes. So, the following works better: c^\markup {\small \note #"4" #1 = 92 - 100 } The
