Mats-
Yeah I thought of that after I sent the message. So I tried it and fiddled
with the input. Your example worked but once I filled in the actual data it
promptly got all wonky so it won't work as a two lined score- the defaults, I
suspect are just too many to override. It also seems that if I try to give
the longer-2nd- line a volta 2 it the program rejects it as not matching the
first line and then attaches the alternative measure to the score as a 3rd
staff. Very strange.
So I'm going to try your second suggestion of two scores on one page which I
didn't think was possible and I've not seen (but I suspect is somewhere) an
example of to get it right.
Thanks-
Jay

Why not try it? I would be very surprised if it didn't work
in version 2.8.4. See the section on Changing Defaults to learn more
about this type of settings.

Quoting Jay Hamilton <address@hidden>:
Mats- You don't have to see the point of this- that's ok, however
your layout below doesn't look like any template allowed/workable for
2.8.4
So can this work in the older version?

You mean something like
\layout{
\context{
\Score
\remove Repeat_acknowledge_engraver
\remove Default_bar_line_engraver
}
\context{
\Staff
\consists Repeat_acknowledge_engraver
\consists Default_bar_line_engraver
}
}
\score{
<<
\new Staff { \repeat volta 3 {c1 c c } \alternative{{c}{c}} }
\new Staff { \repeat volta 2 {e1 e e e e e e} \mark "Fine" e }
}
If the score spans several lines, I honestly don't see the point of
printing this
type of score, since the line break will happen at different places in the
two parts.
