Re: Measure Number Collision

If you want to try 2.21.2 (as opposed to 2.21.7) see https://lilypond.org/download/binaries/mingw/ for which Windows releases (for example) are available for download.

Hi Kieren,

In your example, the rehearsal letters printed twice at the top of the winds group. I don't know if it matters that I am on version 2.20, whereas you specified 2.21.2, which is not publicly available from the LP website.

Also, if I am reading the code correctly, in a passage where only the brass and strings play, no marks would print on that system. The example assumes that winds will always be present. That is why I had a MarkLine at the top of the score outside of any group.

Thanks

Marc

In recent versions, you can just add the engravers to the appropriate StaffGroup contexts (see below). Does that solve your problem?

Cheers,
Kieren.
