Re: file structure (hierarchy) - where to put \set

[Andrew Black]

I have been playing with skipBars and have been getting rather confused.
My view is that it is preferable to put the skipBars (and other \set
commands) into a section away from the music.

I have tried the following but get
 t_layout.ly:11:5: error: syntax error, unexpected \set
      \set skipBars = ##t

Any hints as to where I am going wrong,

\version "2.10.25"
\score
{
  { 
     r1 * 10
  }
}
\layout {

  \context { \Score
     \set skipBars = ##t
  }
}
