Here's an example that uses smaller note heads for one measure: \relative c'{ c d e f \new Voice {\tiny g f e d } c d e d c1 } /MatsMats, do you think it would be useful with an operator \newClone to clone the current context? E.g.\new Staff \with {\consists Foo_engraver bar=#'baz} { c d \tiny e f \newClone Staff { g f e d} c d e } would be equivalent to: \new Staff \with {\consists Foo_engraver bar=#'baz}{ c d \tiny e f \new Staff \with {\consists Foo_engraver bar=#'baz} { \tiny g f e d} c d e }(I think such operator can come out as a side-effect of some work I'm doing)
Would it even make sense to make this the default behaviour of \new? At least, it would probably cause less surprise to a newbie than the current implementation, in examples like: \relative c'{ \tiny c d <<{e d} \\ {c b}>> } On the other hand, it would probably make it less obvious for the advanced user to predict exactly what LilyPond does, for example in situations like \relative c' \new Voice{ c d e f << c1 \new Lyrics \lyricmode { Some4 text << \new Voice \notemode { c d e2 } {some more text } >> } >> } where it's not obvious if the inner Voice context would inherit anything from the outer one (maybe this is already crystal clear to you). /Mats
