For the printed output it doesn’t matter. Scaling the durations seems most tedious to me, and overriding the stencil is also more complicated than a third possibility:-----Original Message----- I want to write a piece with a alla-breve time signature but with four half notes in a measure (4/2). Is it better to overwrite the time signature stencil and use \time 4/2 or do it like this: \version "2.18.2" \relative c'' \scaleDurations 1/2 { \time 2/2 r2 g g g | f f g b | b a b1 } Noeck, http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2014-09/msg00603.html might be of help. MarkThanks. I should have found this. My main question which solution is more correct? Scaling the durations or changing the printed time signature?
\time 2/2 \set Timing.measure-length = #(ly:make-moment 4 2)But it’s up to which coding you prefer, actually. To me, a really "correct" solution would be \override TimeSignature.style – but this works only for \time 4/4 and \time 2/2. So you need to use something more intrusive.
Best, Simon
