Hello all, When a Staff is populated by \partcombine, it is often difficult to tell/remember who is playing right after a page-break. (n.b., Unlike percussion or vocal staves, it isn’t normal practice to change the shortInstrumentName of a \partcombine-d Staff.)
I’ve seen several scores recently (including the *spectacular* new Breitkopf/Henle Brahms’ symphonies http://www.breitkopf.com/inventory/werk/8788?sr.epochen=&sr.isbn=&sr.weltlich=false&sr.query=brahms+henle+symphonie&was=1%2C4&sr.besetzungen=&sr.geistlich=false) in which multi-instrument staves will include a disambiguating mark where necessary: e.g. on a Staff with two parts (say, Flutes 1 & 2), a two-note chord would have no mark, whereas a single line would say “1.” or “2.” or “unis.”, as appropriate. What would be required to make Lily do this relatively easily? Would it be a Scheme engraver? Or [major] changes to \partcombine itself? Thanks, Kieren. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
