Hello, the following (incomplete) example includes a volta bracket which shouldspan from bar 9 to 12. However it stops with the line break after bar 9. Anyidea what I am doing wrong?
I've seen James' response, but I'm going to make a different suggestion. I _think_ the (volta #f) is simply used to signal to Lily that you want the repeat lines to finish at this point, but that there is no defined point where the alternative music ends. Lily takes the view that the end of a system is an equally good place to stop. If you replace your final
\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f) ) with \set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f) end-repeat)then the repeated section actually ends, and the spanner continues over the bar line, because there is a musically defined end to the section.
I think that the snippet you supplied doesn't work, musically, because of the lack of ending to the repeat.
