Re: Crescendo hairpin colliding with repeat bar line

Thank you, Yoshi!

I still have to use it for each hairpin, but it's a nice shortcut.

Maybe there will be a global solution for this in an upcoming version of 
Lilypond.

Thanks again,

My solution is to create a variable with a small but memorable name, and use them as you go. The following is an example that would allow you to type less to adjust the hairpin:
