Re: matching unequal bars in separate staves

[Ralph Palmer]

Okay - I'm getting close. However, in the following file, I don't understand :
1) Why there seems to be a \partial at the beginning of the main staves (or why the barlines are offset by a quarter note);
2) Why there are no barlines in the ossia.

I'm attaching a PDF of the output.

I would appreciate any help you can give me.

Pondly,

Ralph
