Dear list,
Because I am typesetting a fragment of a larger work, I would like to
display the bar number on the first line. By default Lilypond does not
do so, but begins displaying it on line 2. In ly/engraver-init.ly, we
encounter the following line:
barNumberVisibility = #default-bar-number-visibility
and in scm/output-lib.scm we see this:
(define-public (default-bar-number-visibility barnum) (> barnum 1))
So, it seemed like I should be able to do the following:
\set Score.barNumberVisibility = ##t
but this has no effect. I also tried this:
#(define-public (default-bar-number-visibility barnum) (#t))
but, as expected, it didn't work either.
If anyone can shed light on this, I'll gladly write up a blurb on it for
inclusion in the manual. (I searched and didn't find anything there, so
please forgive if it's there and I missed it.) I am using version 2.6.3
on Linux.
