Aaron, Please supply a snippet that encapsulates only the “problem.” The code you provide has several syntactical errors. Mark From: lilypond-user [mailto:address@hidden On Behalf Of Aaron Feldman Sent: Saturday, March 30, 2019 3:21 PM To: address@hidden Subject: 3/4 time suddenly become 5/8 time for one measure? GNU LilyPond 2.18.2 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. \version "2.18.2" { \time 3/4
