Hi!
What are you trying to accomplish?
I am trying to embed very short musical note sequences as tone/pitch
indicators.
What have you tried?
Finally tried table cell -> minipage -> ERT:
\begin{abc}[name=i23ga4]
X:1
L:1/4
K:D
(E/2F/2) G|
\end{abc}
But, I have to manually set the width, which results in varying
different sizes... I really need to constrain by height and let width
be auto adjusted, which is what I am trying to figure out how to finagle
at this point.
How does it "not work"?
If I don't use a mini-page I get:
\end{abc}\tabularnewline
Try typing <return> to proceed.
If that doesn't work, type X <return> to quit.
Cheers,
Julien

Let's keep the discussion on the user list. Others can benefit from
this. Some might even know how to solve your problem.
First what I did is that I made sure I have all the dependencies:
aptitude install texlive-music abcm2ps ps2eps epstopdf
Then I added the -shell-escape option to the LaTeX > DVI converter from
within LyX, as you pointed out.
Now it works for simple examples inserted as ERT. You can set the width
of the ABC snippet in ERT; consult the abc documentation to do this. Or,
you can encapsulate it inside a Box and set the width there. I
understand that being able to set the height would be better for small
snippets. However, this seems to be a limitation of the abc package, so
you could try contacting its maintainer.

Julien
