Re: Multi-Measure Rests: Adding to what gets printed?

[rasAK]

Alexander,

I've modified the BarNumberStaff code as you suggested.  I also changed one
line in your \layout block.  I commented out the Mark_engraver as I was
getting double boxed rehearsal letters:

%    \consists Mark_engraver

The only remaining issue is the positioning of the text that results from
your function.  It is currently being placed above the number (which is
above the MMR).  I tried to adjust some of the Y-offset and Y-extent
numbers, but could only get the text to move up.  I would like for it to
print below the MMR (but keeping the number of measures in the MMR above the
MMR).  Something like the following:

         6
 |-------------|
 ( 121 - 126 )

Thoughts?

Thanks,

Randy
