Re: Multiple Endings Problem

[William Marchant]

The code suggested by Thomas Morley, using the "\once \set Staff...." 
line  solves my problem.
The bug, if it is one seems to lie in the fact that other code precedes 
my example code.  I did not realise that my code would run correctly 
without the preceding code.  An ossia would not suit me because I wanted 
the horizontal lines which designate which verses of the song the 
endings were to follow.  Thanks for all the replies.
