RE: Réf. : Re: two questions

[Ralph Little]

Hi,
I think that Michiel intended to have a set of repeating themes in his score 
taken from two notes blocks.
He was using \relative in the score instead of where he was defining the notes 
in the notes block, so the relative was not actually working in the way he 
expected.

He wrote:

------8<------8<------8<------8<---
when I create a part like this

foo = \notes
{
    c4 d e f g a b c r4
}

bar = \notes
{
    e4 b c d a g
}

and then reuse those parts like this

\relative c''
{
    \foo
    \bar
    \foo
    \bar
    \foo
    \bar
}

The music shifts up one octave (quite logically)
I "fixed" it so far with \octave c'' wherever it would go wrong...
------8<------8<------8<------8<---

By shifing the \relative to the notes blocks, I expected this to solve his 
problem, but it did not work in the way I expected and I can't see why.
If it works for others fine, then I guess I have been messing with my reference 
Lilypond installation too much... :(

Regards,
Ralph
