Multi_measure_rest_engraver

Engraves multi-measure rests that are produced with R. Reads measurePosition and currentBarNumber to determine what number to print over the MultiMeasureRest. Reads measureLength to determine if it should use a whole rest or a breve rest to represent 1 measure

Music types accepted: multi-measure-rest-event

Properties (read)


measureLength (moment)
Length of one measure in the current time signature last?
measurePosition (moment)
How much of the current measure (measured in whole notes) have we had. This can be set manually to create incomplete measures (anacrusis, upbeat), the start of the music.
currentCommandColumn (grob (GRaphical OBject))
Grob that is X-parent to all current breakable (clef, key signature, etc.) items.
restNumberThreshold (number)
If a multimeasure rest takes less than this number of measures, no number is printed.
currentBarNumber (integer)
Contains the current barnumber. This property is incremented at every barline.
This engraver creates the following grobs: MultiMeasureRest and MultiMeasureRestNumber.

Multi_measure_rest_engraver is part of contexts: TabVoice and Voice
