Pierre, This is excellent, thanks, and would be just what I want.... except... it uses the modern flat glyph, not the mensural version. How did you create the EPS file with the 2 glyphs on the transparent background?

I know how to do that, but it is also offset to the right, and with a smaller flat sign. Does anyone know how this could be done? I first thought I could simply scaled the flat glyph but the result looks bad. So I'm afraid you'll have to use your own eps glyph. Here's what I've done (I've taken horizontal and vertical proportions from your pic.): \version "2.18.2" myFmaj = \markup \raise #1.1 \override #'(baseline-skip . 2) { \general-align #Y #CENTER { \epsfile #X #2.2 #"doubleFlat.eps" } } \score { { \clef F \key f\major \hideNotes f } \layout { \context { \Score \override KeySignature.stencil = #(lambda (grob) (grob-interpret-markup grob myFmaj)) } } } As you can see, this is fairely simple. But of course, it would be more elegant to create just the small flat glyph and integrate it whith a scheme function just for the highest pitch. HTH, Pierre
