Accidentals that overlap exactly should be printed only once. But LilyPond currently prints them twice. You can see that this is happening if you use Frescobaldi, zoom your Music Viewer in, and then comment out \once \omit Accidental
in the MWE below. (See https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2025-12/msg00313.html for context.) %%% MWE begins \version "2.24.4" \new Staff << \new Voice = "first" \relative c'' { \voiceOne beses beses! } \new Voice = "second" \relative c'' { % If you comment out the following line, % the accidental will get bolder/darker in Frescobaldi’s PDF viewer: \once \omit Accidental \voiceTwo beses } >> %%% MWE ends ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Werner LEMBERG Date: Wed, 31 Dec 2025 Subject: Re: Accidentals: Perfect Unison across Two Voices Cc: <[email protected]> I agree that accidentals that overlap exactly should be printed only once. I can't find an issue in our bug tracker for this problem, so please open a new issue.
