Hi;

  I'm looking at the Notation Reference regarding \compressMMRests.

  I see "R2.*2" (I want 3 bars, cool).

  I tried "R2.*3", which does not generate a single rest, but a pair of rests.

  I tried "R1*3/4*3", but it generates the same two rests.

 I have four screenshots attached:
the first two are to show the problem specifically;
the second two are the complete original file abd my engraving (so far);
The fifth is my Lilypond code (so far).

Code snippet:

  \compressMMRests { R1*3/4*3 }

  This is not what the manual shows.

  What am I doing wrong?

  Using Lilypond 2.22.2, MacOS, homebrew.

Thanks,
Ken Wolcott
