Re: \paper block inside \bookpart

Robert,

Doesn't look like you're doing anything wrong. In the code, it doesn't appear that \bookpart is sensitive to this variable, except from the top-level \paper block. I'm CC-ing the bug list because I'm not sure how the \paper blocks are differentiated in top-level, \book and \bookpart blocks.

For reference: the offending code is found in lily/paper-book.cc, in function Paper_book::output_aux.

Dear Ponderers,

according to

http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/the-paper-block

I should be able to put a \paper statement within a \bookpart block. I
have a situation where I have a (global) paper statement and would like
to add an additional \paper block to each \bookpart with a specific page
number. I tried it like this

\version "2.18.2"

\paper { max-systems-per-page = #10 }

\book{
\bookpart {
\paper { first-page-number = #20 }
\score { \new Staff { \repeat unfold 500 { c'' } } }
}

\bookpart {
\paper { first-page-number = #20 }
\score { \new Staff { \repeat unfold 500 { d'' } } }
}
}

but this doesn't seem to work. Am I missing something?

Cheers,
Robert
