Hello all,
I am a newbie to Lilypond but so far have been having fun learning to
engrave music with it. I have searched the archive for this problem and have
not found an answer to it. Sorry if it has been covered.
The problem occurs when notating a melody that has repeated sections.
This piece has the form AABB where A is repeated and B has alternate
endings.
Here is how the code would look:
\notes {
\key g \major
\relative c' {
%A section
\repeat volta 2 {
some notes }
%B section
\repeat volta 2 {
some more notes }
\alternative {
{ ending one }
{ ending two }
}
\bar "|."
}
}
For a situation such as this, Lilypond seems to always attempt to place the
repeat sign for the beginning of the B section at the beginning of the line.
The problem is that it places the repeat sign BEFORE the key signature
instead of after it. This looks very odd and I have never seen this done
this way in a printed edition. Has anybody else come across this? Is it a
bug? Is there a way around this?
