Re: Odd interaction berween \alternative and bar line

[Peter Toye]

Phil,

I don't know what I was thinking of! I've spent about 2 hours getting this wrong! Several senior moments I fear.

Change the middle bit to 

         \repeat volta 2 {
            c1
          }
          \alternative {
            {
              <g, g'>
              |         %comment this out and it's OK
              <a a'>
            }
            d'1
          }

and it's OK, even without the braces round the last note.

Best regards,

Peter
