Re: Ugly volta brackets

[Dominic Neumann]

okay, sorry for not posting an example. It´s not that easy to find a
simple one, because in the simple situations there´s no problem with
the brackets. I already included the tipp for question 3 and it works
good.

There´s a problem with the collision of the bracket numbers and the chordnames.

%%% BEGIN OF CODE %%%

\version "2.10.19"

harmonies = {
  \chordmode { \set majorSevenSymbol = \markup { "maj7" }
      b1:7 c:maj7 d c:maj7 c:maj7 d d
  }
}

\score {
  {
      <<
      \new ChordNames \with {
          chordChanges = ##t
          voltaOnThisStaff = ##t

      } \harmonies

          voltaOnThisStaff = ##f
      }
      \relative c'' {
          \repeat volta 2 {

              }
              {
                  \set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta "2.-3.") end-repeat)
                  % 2nd and 3rd ending
