Can someone enlighten me what \set Score.alternativeNumberingStyle = #'number does?

I've tried the two options on some scores I have and can see what \set Score.alternativeNumberingStyle = #'numbers-with-letters does, but not #'number.

Xavier, see comment #1 above. I cannot see what

\set Score.alternativeNumberingStyle = #'number

does over the default (or is this the default?) as I can see what
\set Score.alternativeNumberingStyle = #'numbers-with-letters does

So I am stuck knowing if I need to add just the #'numbers-with-letters does or both and if both what does #'numbers do?

Hi James,

Actually I simply copied the commands that were given by Mike in the
French users mailing list:
http://lilypond-french-users.1298960.n2.nabble.com/Repetitions-volta-et-numeros-de-mesure-tp7036772p7062089.html

But IIUC Mike's explanations and AFAICS in the regression test
"input/regression/bar-number-volta-repeat.ly"
with \set Score.alternativeNumberingStyle = #'number the bars in the
alternatives will have the _same number_ (e.g. "4", "5" in the first
alternative, "4", "5" in the second one and "6" after the alternatives).
This is different from the default in the sense that the measures within
alternatives will have the same number, whereas with the default the
numbers will simply increase, i.e. "4", "5" in the first alternative,
"6", "7" in the second one and "8" after the alternatives (for the same
input). Is it clearer?

With \set Score.alternativeNumberingStyle = #'numbers-with-letters
the measures will have the same number but with a letter suffix
different in each alternative, e.g. "4a", "5a" in the first alternative,
"4b", "5b" in the second one, etc.

Xavier,

Thanks that does help, in fact I had just finished a frivolous composition for the accordion where I use (excessive) \repeat volta constructs, and now I can see the differences of the two styles vs default.

#'numbers creates some odd looking bar numberings depending on the \breaks (i.e 3, 6, 9, 8, 11, 10 etc.) on the piece but logically it all works. The #'numbers-with-letters is much clearer in this case (kind of - i.e 3, 6, 9a, 8b, 11a, 10b etc.).

Personally that would drive me mad in a long piece, but hey!

Doc: NR added snippet for Alt Bar Numbering

Tracker item 2093

Added snippet showing #'numbers and #'numbers-with-letters tweak.

Added to NR in two places (Bar Numbers 1.2.5 and Long Repeats 1.4.1)
as a user would probably look for it in either place.

The patchy problem was from my LSR changes, not this patch.

that patch, as posted on codereview, will not compile.

James needs to work on a separate branch, put that commit in, then run makelsr locally. If he's not independently skilled on branches, then we could consider this blocked on issue 2100.

Yes I realised that when I looked again at the patch.

I did makelsr.py to test it compiled, but figured that reviewing such a patch 'visually' might be tedious if there are lots of other files changed.

But I meant to post the next patch identical as the initial but with makelsr.py 'on top' (if you see what I mean) so I could push it (and patchy would not complain).

I just forgot that second part.

I'll re-do it tomorrow.
