Re: Key Signature Change beyond the end of a movement.

[Masaki, Akikazu]

Hi Richard,

The last spacer is not necessary, but staff lines don't reach trailing
key or time signatures by default.  (I guess you tried that.)
Set StaffSymbol.break-align-symbols property;
%%%%%%%%
\version "2.22.0"
\layout {
  \context {
    \Staff
    \override StaffSymbol.break-align-symbols = #'()
    % \override StaffSymbol.break-align-symbols = #'(key-signature) %% a bit 
different result
  }
}
\markup { Movement I }
{
  c'' c'' c'' c''
  c''  c''
  \bar "|." \key bes \major }
%%%%%%%%
