Re: change of volta number

Dear Jacques,

Well you can basically do that:

{
  \repeat volta 2 {
    d'4 e' f' e'
  }
  \alternative {
    {
      \set Score.repeatCommands = #'(end-repeat (volta "2."))
      f'4 a' g'2
    }
  }
  f'4 d' e'2
}

The \set Score... is the only thing that differs from the typical
\repeat commands and sets the ending type as you requested.

I don't understand your notation, though, because there is no
alternative. What do you play the first time after the repeat? Nothing?
Then why do you need the alternative "2." at all?

Cheers,
Joram


PS: I don't understand why this does not work:

{
  \repeat volta 2 {
    d'4 e' f' e'
  }
  \alternative {
    {}
    {
      \override Score.VoltaBracket.text = "2."
      f'4 a' g'2
    }
  }
  f'4 d' e'2
}
