Re: Can headers and footers access the current \fromproperty #'header:piece

[Pierre-Luc Gauthier]

Thanks Timothy,

It sure does the trick !

Though,
I was using \pageBreak as an example and I don't actually want them.
I've adapted the MWE to reflect more accurately the situation.
The point is for the musician to know where he is in the opera on any
page he happens to open the book on. As a lousy example, on page 2,
the musician does not know where he is in the production and has to
open the book where a scene starts or to refer to the TOC of course.

As a follow-up question : do you know if \bookparts can *not* produce
\pagebreaks?
I suppose it's part of what they were made for…
