Seems to be an awesomeness to claim eventually support from a program to to give a fair warning if I am wrong? I miss some logic in the behaviour of lilypond in this case. But I realize that is the best of all possilties in our world because all tell me so.On Tue 06 Feb 2018 at 09:33:41 (+0100), Blöchl Bernhard wrote:Am 06.02.2018 03:15, schrieb Andrew Bernard:Hi bb, Do you simply want 17/16? I use times like this very often. Just use time 17/16 and you will get barlines.Thank you! This is a possibilty if one really wants 17/16. I do not. But lilypond does not serve the sloppy user perfectly from using such constructs inattentively - lilypond could do!So your concern is just for LP to issue warnings about *your* inattentiveness so you can debug your scores.
It doesn't seem to matter to you that people writing perfectly correct scores are going to be inundated with false warnings. You've already brought this up under another thread, and http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2018-01/msg00599.html gave an example of the reason why LP does not issue warnings unless you add | characters.
I do not claim lilypond to change my code but I wrote this as an example for what lilypond might do instead of setting questionable barlines. (I am awaiting some mail in short time that explains me that this is not questionable/wrong/critical or whatever for some reason - might it be the practice of Chopin or whoever.
Therefore let me point out: I see this behavour of lilypond as a great, great feature and the best and greatest of the world!
Hope that satisfies anybody to the end of the days.
Indeed it was my realistic ambition to do my work. I hope your clarifying mail will give you relief and does not harm your karma. My karma is still intact.My hand written pieces often change time sig every bar, and with any sort of signature you like - lilypond handles that just fine, and places barlines as expected. I use 15/16 commonly. Not a problem. And in fact I hide the time signatures (for reasons not relevant to this topic) so you can do that too if you want, and still have barlines.For this case I think it's better to \omit the bar check.Passing over the fact that one doesn't \omit bar checks, one omits writing | characters as bar checks, irregular measure lengths would be a particularly good occasion to employ a | at the end of every measure. […]I find it remarkable that warnings arise "one bar later". I would understand this behaviour , if the first bar is not completed and there is missing something to fill the bar - bit in this case lilypond is not seting a bar line. Butt remeber that the first bar is overstuffed by 1/16.OK, you've made your remark. Could you now turn your attention to the varieties of musical notation practice.
With your reminder mail you might force more reactions - I will ignore in the future!
Cheers, David.
