Polymeter Question

[nagymusic]

I'm working on a flute and marimba duet that features a polymetric passage.
Would someone be able to suggest how to fix the typeset music to respect
automatic line breaks? Currently, it just runs off the page... (see
attached .ly file)? I browsed the forum and gather that there could be an
issue with this but wasn't able to find a solution. Thank you for your help!

Have you tried explicitly putting \bar ""statements at the points you
wish to break cleanly?

Hi Zvony,

Have you tried ...

\layout { \context { \Voice \remove Forbid_line_break_engraver } }

... yet?

Removing the Forbid_line_break_engraver allows LilyPond to break a system
of music *in the middle of ongoing note's duration* (which have a way of
arising anytime the polymetry goes on for a bit).

Trevor.
