You are on your own on that one. I think it just leads to the unpleasant chaos of having to look up what those mean in a table somewhere after you have forgotten why you put that into your score. -Shane On Thu, Mar 25, 2021 at 10:20 PM Valentin Petzel wrote: > Hello! > > Currently Lilypond

Suggestion: Use non powers of 2 for tuplets

2021-03-25 Thread Valentin Petzel
Hello! Currently Lilypond only supports powers of 2 for specifying duration. Could we use the other numbers for common divisions? For example: We could use 3 for 2*3/2, 5 for 4*5/4, 6 for 4*3/2, 7 for 8*7/8, 9 for 8*9/8, 10 for 8*5/4, 11 for 8*11/8, 12 for 8*3/2 and so on. This would be quite

Are you thinking of this as a polychord (one chord above another, rather than a chord over a bass note as is usually with a “slash” chord)? Here is a snippet intended to be used as an \include, if I recall correctly, to denote poly chords in \chordmode I haven’t had occasion to use it in

In this case you have two options: → Override ChordName.text to what you want → Create a custom chordName function that somehow handles this. That would be quite hard to do. You can modify it to take some sort of context variable to specify the root or something. I’m not really sure if Chord
