Hi Reinhold,
Unfortunately, after inserting this forced \pageBreak the scores
(except the
last), which before took only ~1.33 pages, suddently don't even fit
on 2 pages
any more, but need 3 pages!
+1
I've noticed this kind of thing [a lot!] for a number of versions
now — maybe starting 2.13.7 or so? — but haven't had the time to
make a minimal example.
Forced page breaks definitely wreak havoc, though the effect seems
to be minimized by changing the page-breaking mechansm (e.g.,
optimal- vs minimal-).
Any ideas how I can get this score on 4 pages, with
-) 1 Title page
-) 2 pages for the next 4 scores
-) 1 page for the final score
I ended up taking advantage of my layout functions:
pageBreaksForbid = { \override Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn #'page-
break-permission = ##f }
pageBreaksAllow = { \revert Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn #'page-break-
permission }
lineBreaksForbid = { \override Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn #'line-
break-permission = ##f }
lineBreaksAllow = { \revert Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn #'line-break-
permission }
It's a hassle to do this manually — especially on a 40+ page score
— but it was the only way to crank out the score in the required tim
e.
Hope this helps!
Kieren.
