Re: [sc-users] Global Variables and Ppar

["Kuivila, Ronald" <rkuivila@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hmm, it "should" work.

But ~mel is shorthand for currentEnvironment[\mel].
So perhaps something in your code is changing currentEnvironment
As a simple work around, try

	Ppar([topEnvironment[\bd], topEnvironment[\mel] ]).play

(Look in the Environment help page for more details.)
