Hi Rob,
i am trying to do a new version of a piece i originally made in finale
its a grid type mobile structure type score
what i need is someone to point me at the documentation that would
help me
make multiple musical fragments and then distribute them on a
single page in
a number of configurations - a grid to start with - but once i know
how to
make little musical snips of set dimentions and move them on the x
y axis of
the page should be easy from there..
Remember that:
1. \markup can include a \score;
2. \markup can be enclosed in a \box;
3. \markup can be \translate-d anywhere from its original position.
In other words, look in the (2.11.65) docs for the \markup functions
to do that.
HTH!
Kieren.
there is a picture of the score i made in finale on this page about
halfway
down
http://www.robcanning.info/melencolia.html

lilypond
i just need a pointer where to start in the docs

Hi Rob,
The NonMusicalPaperColumn grob can be quite useful for this sort of
thing.
Take a look at NR 4.4.3 "Explicit staff and system positioning" and
try out
the X-offset and Y-offset attributes. Note that
NonMusicalPaperColumn lives
only in the Score context. And note that you use \override to
override the
grob in the \with block of the Score or in your \layout block but,
strangely, if you override the grob on the fly in your note entry
you must
use the unusual \overrideProperty command.
Trevor.
