Re: Using \global - Lilypond 2.9.20 Windows

[Mats Bengtsson]

I actually find the warning message relevant. Consider the following 
example:
\score{
<<
 \new Staff{ \mark "Mark in first stave" c'1}
 \new Staff{ \mark "Mark in second stave" e'1}
>>
}
Clearly, LilyPond will only typeset one  of these marks, but it's not 
really
well-defined which one and the program should definitely tell that that the
user probably has made a mistake and the program had to make a decision
on which mark to typeset.

In your case, you know why the warning appears and you know that you can
ignore it, since you only have \mark commands in your \global. If you 
want to
get rid of the warnings, you could add the \mark commands in a separate 
variable
that's only included at the top stave of the score, or you could use the 
\tag feature
to do the same thing.
