Re: Start new score without line break

[Andrew Bernard]

Hi Simon,

I think MuseScore can do it also, for simple cases. Nothing is impossible - it's just software after all!

Harm has given me a pointer to as way to fake this out which works fine when adapted a little. But it's lots of code, and the idea of \noBreak \score would be very helpful to many people I feel sure.

I would still like to be able to start a new score with no break, for example in books of say, harpsichord music with lots of small, short movements, where the systems would be the same proportions but the piece is new.

There are other conceivable use cases, e.g. the attached one, or other cases with a very short recitativo inbetween larger scored movements. But they are exceedingly rare.
Also, a proper solution would certainly require the C++ page layout algorithms to optionally not make a line break between scores (the input syntax could theoretically be as simple as
\score { c } \noBreak \score { d }
). I like that idea, but allow me to say that this is probably never going to be possible (in any music notation software)…

Best, Simon
