Hi all,
Is it ok to have a courtesy treble clef at the end of a system though when observing the repeat it doesn't become treble clef?
Bass Clef || : ........................................ Courtesy treble clef : ||
Treble Clef ......................................
Thanks for advice,
Cheers,
HP.

In my opinion, definitely not. I like Zuill's idea. Another possibility is a first and second ending:Hector Pascal wrote: ↑Tue Sep 24, 2019 4:21 amIs it ok to have a courtesy treble clef at the end of a system though when observing the repeat it doesn't become treble clef?

That's PDQ Bach. PDF Bach was one of the first to do computer engraving.

I think treble clef throughout would be better in motet's example. The many ledger lines would help emphasize the very low spirit of the Chopin tune.

E. Gould (p. 235) agrees with Zuill. Treble clef after the repeat sign.

Thank you very much, everyone.
Zuill, I'd like to use your solution, however I am not sure how to drag the end-repeat (which is at the end of a system) to the left of courtesy treble clef....
Cheers,
Hector.

Instead of explaining my approach, first I'll attach the file and see if you can figure it out. If not, let me know and I'll explain.

Thanks, Zuill! I'm almost there, but I still don't seem to be able to drag my repeat to the left, nor your repeat. I am thinking it is a setting for some kind of indent? I have hidden the courtesy clef and made my treble clef expression.
Cheers and thanks,
HP.

.29861 when using inches. Nothing special about the actual size. I did it by sight, just guessing by the numbers. I'm not sure about 42. Maybe I'm not getting a joke. I can be slow at times.Hector Pascal wrote: ↑Thu Sep 26, 2019 1:54 amAha! The answer is 0.75847

OK, thanks Zuill!

Unfortunately, no one knows what the question is."
