I see you didn't get a response to this the first time. I'm afraid I can't help you except to note that the Grace Notes section of the manual http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond/Special-rhythmic-concerns#Grace-notes has this to say: "Known issues and warnings A multi-note beamed acciaccatura is printed without a slash, and looks exactly the same as a multi-note beamed appoggiatura. " IOW, it's a known bug. Can't say if/when it might be fixed though. Perhaps the problem is that a slash on one note is standardised notation, but a slash on multiple grace notes is not, particularly since the notes can have arbitrary relative vertical position, so getting a slash to go through them all might be tricky. I don't think you necessarily have a problem here. When you see multiple grace notes, they are normally interpreted acciaccatura -- as short as possible -- not appoggiatura -- taking a fixed fraction of the note they're attached to. See for example Schmuyle's theme from Pictures at an Exhibition: http://www.virtualsheetmusic.com/images/first_pages/BIG/Mussorgsky/Pictures2First_BIG.gif [passages starts after |: repeat bar.] The single acciaccatura is slashed, the multiple grace notes are not slashed, but they are all played as short as possible. [IMO the appoggiatura is a stupid notation which should be consigned to the dustbin. If you meant a quaver, write a quaver! Without the appoggiatura we wouldn't have this stupid mess.] Phil _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
