Right. Putting them inside the brackets look a bit weird, but I felt it was a bit more musically correct. > For the duration of grace notes, you can use > \scaleDurations to scale them down to the length you want [1] . I didn’t know that. It is tradition that by default refer to being played at half the value indicated, so perhaps the might be an implicit in \scaleDurations 1/2 into \grace. > About settings disturbed by grace note, it seems that's a well known > issue not going to be fixed.

But then the notes appear to the note before, and before the measure bar, which is a different performance style, which is a good suggestion to give, because I have a case where it might be used. > [1] See the Known issues of Grace Note section of > http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/special-rhythmic-concerns _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
