Hi,
this came up in the german forum.
Below returns a bar check error as soon as \midi is uncommented.
\version "2.27.2"
\score {
\relative c' {
\partial 4
\repeat volta 2 {
e4 | e1 |
} \alternative { { d2. } { d1 | } } }
\layout { }
%\midi {}
}
Same problem if \midi is added to our regtest
/input/regression/bar-check-parallel-alternative-ok.ly
Probably, it could be fixed by deleting `measureLength` from the list
for `alternativeRestores`:
\midi {
\context {
\Score
alternativeRestores = #'(measurePosition measureStartNow lastChord)
}
}
Should this be the default for \midi ?
Cheers,
Harm
