Hi all, This is really about three issues, but they're related, so bear with me please.
1. There seems to have been a decision made at some point to merge note heads in some cases (see collision-head-chords.ly in the regression tests and the second chord in the example code below). I personally find this ugly and cannot find an example in my library of published music where an engraver has taken this same decision. I prefer the forked stem solution - see the attached picture. I would be interested in others' opinions on this, and advice as to any possible workarounds. 2. Forcing the display of all accidentals with ! demonstrates a collision bug - perhaps forced accidentals are bypassing the accidental collision code? 3. These points are both related to a feature request for a new accidental style which is common in quite a lot of contemporary music. That is, accidentals, including naturals, before _every_ note, excepting immediate repetitions. I see some of these things have been discussed previously, but no conclusions reached... http://www.mail-archive.com/lilypond-user@gnu.org/msg10504.html Cheers, Mark %% \version "2.10.13" melody = { \clef treble <f'! fis'!>4 <f'! fis'! g'!>4 } \score { \new Staff { \melody } \layout { ragged-right = ##t } } %% -- Mark Knoop
