Re: [Takemitsu] Polymetric music doesn't break lines properly

There are two things you have to add to your example (I don't know to which extent this is written or missing in the documentation:

1)
an invisible barline \bar ""
LilyPond can only break lines at barlines, so in order to have it break in mid-measure (as one of the staves will do) you can place an invisible barline at all positions where you want to allow LilyPond to add a line break

2)
\override Beam.breakable = ##t
(this can be set in the \Score part of the \layout block)
By default LilyPond can't break when a beam is active, so you have to explicitly allow it to do so.

Ah, one more thing: If you don't want to set manual line breaks but want to allow LilyPond to break anywhere (say, after each quaver) you could add a separate invisible voice to each staff that contains something like

\repeat unfold 50 { s8 \bar "" }
(of course to be adapted to the actual music)

​ Hello again :-)

https://github.com/piotr2b/rain-tree-sketch/tree/master/Troubles/Polymetric%20music%20and%20line%20break​

​ I've tried to write the long bar 40 in polymetric ​style, as shown in the previous link. Unfortunately, although it seems to be a very minimal working example inspired by this doc paragraph, Line breaks aren't done correctly.

Should we have to do something else that is not written down in the doc? It yes, where can I ask to modify it / report an insufficiency? I believe it's not a bug~

​ Cheers ;-)
