GNU LilyPond 2.18.2 running on Ubuntu 18.04 Compiling as text with no gui In measure 29 the tempo changes to 5/8 time for no reason when I continue with 8th notes. Please note that the line that reads \set Timing.measureLength = #(ly:make-moment 3/4) was my attempt to fix it. That did not help, exactly the same result with, or without it. Any help greatly appreciated. This is the first time I have contacted the lilypond list. [ . . . ]
Please be sure to post complete minimal working examples (MWEs). Your code you posted omitted two closing braces. Also, be sure to look for any warnings emitted by LilyPond--in this case, "warning: Ignoring non-music expression". Your use of #(set-global-staff-size) should appear at the top-level, not within music.
But most importantly here, bar checks will be your friend. If you were using them, you would have discovered the issue:
You have an eighth note followed by a dotted half. That is too much to fit in a single measure, however LilyPond will attempt to draw what you ask it to.
But that means the next measure "starts" on moment 1/8, so it only appears to hold five eighth notes.
