Hello,
I am a beginner at Lilypond (this is my second transcription) and I am
encountering some (3 majors) difficulties with gregorian chant notation
(neumes ligatures). Let's try to be clear:
1- PORRECTUS: The last note of every porrectus that end with an ascending
second (for exemple: g f g) is too close from the "line" of the porrectus,
making the last note head unclear. Maybe I could make the staves bigger
without changing the size of the neumes? Would that be a solution? (and how
do I do that?)
2- DOTS: Dots inside a ligature are too close to the next note heads. I
tried to add skips after the dotted notes, but it had no effect.
3- ICTUS: At two places (over the words "(manum) tuam" and "(scientia
tua) alleluia", the ictus does not appear under the note it is assigned to.
Besides that, I am quite happy with the results. I hope someone can help me
to make it perfect! Thank you and happy new year to everyone!
Here is the input:
