Re: Disappearing dynamics

[Andrew Bernard]

Hi Urs,

Installed Debian 9.5 and all. The error, I am sorry to say, is in
Frescobaldi, displayed in Ubuntu 18.10 and Debian 9.5. Using emacs and
command line lilypond works fine on both Linux distros. Using Frescobaldi
3.0.0, the dynamics appear only intermittently, with no apparent pattern.

I am at a complete loss to understand this, and I cannot imagine how to
demonstrate it without giving away my entire library of code and IP. It's
completely inexplicable to me why only dynamics are affected. So far, this
is just a ten page start on a string quartet, so I don't think the system
is stretched to its limits at all.

This behaviour shows up whether using the lilypond default system fonts, or
Linux Biolinum O that I use, or any other font.

What this means is that unless anybody ever sees this that I will have to
give up using Frescobaldi, a great pity.

If anybody has any clue how to debug this it would be great. I do not know
how to get the lilypond command for compiling out of Frescobaldi to examine.
