Re: Bar numbers for broken measures

[Mark Witmer]

Hi Daniel,

Here is one possible solution. The first \set permits the display of measure numbers over barlines in the middle of bars, and the second formats the bar numbers with parentheses. A few variables you can tweak for displaying bar numbers are listed at http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/internals/bar_005fnumber_005fengraver.

\version "2.16.0"

\relative c' { \time 4/4 \repeat volta 2 {  c d e } 

      \once \set Score.barNumberVisibility = #(lambda (bar-number measure-position) #t)

      \once \set Score.barNumberFormatter = 

      #(lambda (bar-number measure-position alternative-number extra)

                   (markup (string-append "(" (number->string bar-number) ")"))

      \break f | g a b } \paper { ragged-right = ##t }

Hope that helps!

The piece I'm working on has a repeat that ends in the middle of a measure, with a line break at the same point:

\version "2.16.0"
\relative c' { \time 4/4 \repeat volta 2 {  c d e } \break f | g a b } \paper { ragged-right = ##t }

I would like to have a bar number, perhaps in parentheses, at the beginning of the second line, as in this example (sorry for the poor image quality): http://j.mp/QyEsTT. How can I make this happen? I've been combing through the list archives to no avail.
