Hi Matt, Actually, you can stick an override in the note entry of the music itself if you want to. In fact, there are three override locations. All three override locations are equivalent: 1. In a \context block (which lives within the a \layout block) 2. In a \with block (which follows context instantiation immediately) 3. In the note entry of the actual music 1. Here's an override in a \context block, as before: \score { \relative c'' { c4\startGroup\startGroup c4\stopGroup c4\startGroup c4\stopGroup\stopGroup } \layout { \context { \Staff \consists "Horizontal_bracket_engraver" \override HorizontalBracket #'direction = #up }}} 2. Here's an override in a \with block: \score { \new Staff \with { \consists "Horizontal_bracket_engraver" \override HorizontalBracket #'direction = #up } { \relative c'' { c4\startGroup\startGroup c4\stopGroup c4\startGroup c4\stopGroup\stopGroup } } } 3. And here's an override in the note entry of the music itself: \score { \new Staff \with { \consists "Horizontal_bracket_engraver" } { \override Staff.HorizontalBracket #'direction = #up \relative c'' { c4\startGroup\startGroup c4\stopGroup c4\startGroup c4\stopGroup\stopGroup } } } Gurus, are there any other override locations? Or just these three?
Well, you could also use \tweak and you have two variations of alternative 1. - placing the \layout block outside or inside the \score (hmm, if you have a \book block in your file, then you have three possible levels for your \layout block). Matthew, don't worry if you don't follow all the details here. /Mats _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
