Fine with dashed double barline occurring in middle of bar

I'm setting a short piece by Julio Sagreras that has a Fine with dashed double line in the middle of a bar. At the moment I'm duplicating the dashed with a postscript hack, because from reading the documentation I could only see a single dashed barline as available. Is it possible to get a dash

Font size setting explanation is a bit misleading in documentation

2012-03-24 Thread Nick Payne
