> I'm not top posting. When you give lilypond a piece of music, it automatically generates the music and guitar tabs for it. When there are glissandos in the music, lilypod does show the slides automatically.
However, many times, it shows slides from one string to another, rather than choosing frets on the same string. Is there a way to force it to restrict slides to a single string? The following code shows an example. The second measure shows the automatically generated lilypod slides that go from the first string to the second string. (This can not be played) In the third measure, I have manually forced the notes to all be on the second string. I need a way to do this automatically. Also, I tried to avoid open strings by setting restrainOpenStrings to true. It does not seem to work. \version "2.18.2" musica = \relative c' {e2 e} musicb = \relative c' {e2 e8\glissando (d16\glissando e16)} musicc = \relative c' {e2 e8\2\glissando (d16\glissando e16\2)} \score { \new StaffGroup << \new Staff {\musica \musicb \musicc} \new TabStaff { \set TabStaff.restrainOpenStrings = ##t \tabFullNotation \musica \musicb \musicc} >> } _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
