Re: stylesheet that override defaults

[MarcM]

thanks David and Mike put me on the right path and closed the loop. For the override to work it has to be on the \Score not on the \Staff.

 

Here is the working "stylesheet_fiddle.ly"  for 3/4 time signature

\layout {

\context {

\Score

\overrideTimeSignatureSettings

3/4 % timeSignatureFraction

1/4 % baseMomentFraction

#'(1 1) % beatStructure

#'() % beamExceptions

}

}

Mike already showed you how to do it:

1) create a new file (e.g. stylesheet.ly) which only contains a layout block where you declare your overrides, i.e.:
\layout {
  \context {
    \Score
    \overrideTimeSignatureSettings
    4/4 % timeSignatureFraction
    1/4 % baseMomentFraction
    #'(3 1) % beatStructure
    #'() % beamExceptions
  }
}

2) Include stylesheet.ly in your current file:

\version "2.17.95"
\include "stylesheet.ly"
\score {
  \new Staff {
    \relative c' {
      \time 4/4
      \repeat unfold 8 { c8 } |
    }
  }
}

That's it!
