Hi Urs, Am I sure it is not simply an engraving error? I am never sure of anything, but since in this piece of 86 bars it occurs 31 times I think it is unlikely that it is an engraving error. Best regards, Robert On 23 Jun 2017, at 12:35 , Urs Liska wrote: > > > Am 23. Juni 2

Y-offset in my MWE the marcato mark sits again, or still, underneath the beam. If I could enlarge and shift just the marcato mark and leave the notes at their default size and position things would be OK. Robert On 23 Jun 2017, at 12:19 , Andrew Bernard wrote: > Hi Robert, > >

Re: barNumberCheck breaks multi-measure rests?

2017-07-12 Thread Robert Schmaus
Hi Andrew, It's not the bar number check that breaks the MM rest, it's the separation of s1. * 17 into pieces of 9 and 8 measures that does. Why don't you insert the check at bar 18 and keep use s1. * 17 - that should be ok also. Best, Robert > On 13 Jul 2017, at 02:
