Overriding a global declaration

[John McWilliam]

1. I’m compiling a book of bagpipe tunes and have used a global declaration which suits my Music:

 

#(set-global-staff-size 16)

 

I now fine I have one tune which still does not fit onto the page and one line of music spills over onto a new page. If I reduce this tune to staff-size 15 the problem is solved. Can I do this and maintain my global definition for the other tunes?

2. In the same collection of tunes I sometimes use the following command:

 

#(allow-volta-hook “|”)

 

The problem is that this command is set at the beginning of the tune and affects all my volta spanners. Can I override this where an open spanner is desired?
