How to supress Volta for "\new Staff"-sections // Chord name "bes" won't be interpreted correctly

[Oguz Erden]

Hi,

I'd like to place volta brackets over the chord names as described in section "LilyPond Tips and Tricks" in documentation. Therefor, I put the "voltaOnThisStaff" property in my chords section - with success. But now I can't get rid off of the default staff voltas. I always end up with getting an error.

Besides, the chord "bes" won't be interpreted - the parser exits with "syntax error, unexpected STRING". Is this affected by "germanChords" - disabling didn't help either?

Hope I don't annoy anyone by posting two subjects in one mail. Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

Regards,

Erden

%staff section - where to put "voltaOnThisStaff"?:

staffVoice = \new Staff

%---> \with {voltaOnThisStaff = ##f}

{

\time 4/4

%\set Staff.instrumentName="Voice"

%\set Staff.midiInstrument="voice oohs"

\key f \major

\clef treble

\relative c' {

\context Voice = "melodyVoi" {

\repeat volta 3 {

\dynamicUp

\relative d' {r8 d8 d8[ e8] f8[ f8] e8[ d8] | e8 a,4. r2}

\break

\relative e' {r8 e8 e8[ f8] g8[ g8] a8[ e8] | f2 r2}

\break

\relative a' {r8 a8 a8[ b8] c8[ c8] b8[ a8] | g16[( f16) c8]( c2) r4}

\break

\relative f' {r8 f8 f8[ f8] b8[ a8] g8[ f8] | }

}

\alternative {

{g'2 r}{g1 r}

}

}

}

}

%harmonies section - ok, besides the chord "bes" in 4th line:

harmoniesOne = \new ChordNames \with {

voltaOnThisStaff = ##t

\consists Bar_engraver

\consists "Volta_engraver"

\override VoltaBracket #'minimum-space =#0

}

\chordmode {

\germanChords

\set chordChanges = ##t

d1:m a

a1:7 d2:m c2

f1 c1

bes f2

g:m c4 a4

c1

}

A: Because it breaks the logical sequence of discussion.

Q: Why is top posting bad?
