Hi lilypond For guitar scores, I'm applying right hand finger marks using a snippet I found online, quoted at the end of this message.
When I apply it to a note in a chord, eg > <e c' e' g' c'' e''\RHd>8 It places a nice little arrow above. Perfect. However, if I have several hits of the chord in a row, the notes in the chord and even some properties of the stem put the arrow at different heights. eg > <e c' e' g' c'' e''\RHd>8 <e c' e' g' c'' e''\RHu> <e c' e' g' c'' > e''\RHd><e c' e' g' c'' e''\RHu> <e c' e' g' c'' e''\RHd>4 | The last chord's arrow is much lower, starting at the top of the note head. For the other chords, it put it above the beam. Totally sensible, but: What I would like is for the arrows to be aligned vertically, all at the same height. Any tips to make that happen? - John Below is the snippet I found to help w/ some flamenco notation. strokeUp = \markup\combine\override #'(thickness . 1.3) \draw-line #'(0 . > 2)\raise #2 \arrow-head #Y #UP ##f > strokeDown = \markup\combine\arrow-head #Y #DOWN ##f \override > #'(thickness . 1.3) \draw-line #'(0 . 2) > % Golpe symbol : > golpe = \markup { > \filled-box #'(0 . 1) #'(0 . 1) #0 > \hspace #-1.6 > \with-color #white > \filled-box #'(0.15 . 0.85) #'(0.15 . 0.85) #0 > } > % Strokes, fingers and golpe command : > RHp = \rightHandFinger #1 > RHi = \rightHandFinger #2 > RHm = \rightHandFinger #3 > RHa = \rightHandFinger #4 > RHx = \rightHandFinger #5 > RHu = \rightHandFinger \strokeUp > RHd = \rightHandFinger \strokeDown > RHg = \rightHandFinger \golpe
