Re: Reset bar numbers?

[Guy Melançon]

Dear Valentin,

thanks so much for your quick and right-to-the-point answer. Thanks for suggesting to group both the mark and number reset into a single command. I'll have to dig a bit to see how I can have the mark wrapped into a rounded box (replacing the \default command using something that invokes \rounded-box \bold ?).

P.S. I saw there is a French list as well, I just thought my chances of getting an answer would be higher addressing it on the EN list. I might be wrong.

Best,

Guy

Greetings,
I assume you know about \mark ? That’s what it’s for:

If I understand correctly, that would be something like :

%%%%%%%%

newSection = {
  \mark \default
  \set Score.currentBarNumber = #1
}

{
  b1 b b b \break
  b b b b \break
  \newSection
  b b b b \break
  b b b \newSection b \break
  b b b b \break
  b b b b
}

%%%%%%
