Brilliant!  That's got it in one easy step.  Thank you!

Sol,

 

Put this in your lilypond file, before the music:

#(define-bar-line ".|:-|." "|." ".|:" ".|")

 

And you can use ".|:-|."

Onderwerp: Ending one section with closing double bar line, starting next with begin repeat

 

Hi all,

 

The person I'm typesetting for wants to end the first section of a tune with a closing double bar line (ie "|.") and begin the next section (on the next line) with a begin repeat (".|:").  Basically the goal would be exactly the same functionality as ".|:-||" except with "|." instead of "||".

 

(Actually I shouldn't say exactly the same -- part of the goal would be to get the 2nd ending marking to terminate down at the closing double bar, which it doesn't seem to do with the "||" barline.)

 

At any rate, I cannot figure out how to do this.  I've tried adding the "|." at the end of the first part and the ".|:" at the beginning of next, but it seems like the second barline marking overrides the first, leaving the line ending mark just a normal single barline no matter what I've asked for explicitly.

 

I've prepared a shortish example, but it's still sort of long so instead of including it here I've made a gist: https://gist.github.com/colomon/7722b122f1ec84f918e0b1b0b1c86ff8 (This version includes ".|:-||" where I'd hope to have "".|:-|.".)

 

Any ideas to help me?

 

Thanks,

Sol
