Re: How To Shift String Numbers?
To just move things vertically, it is in general a better idea to use the property called padding, see the section on "Common Tweaks" in the manual. /Mats VSD wrote: use the extra-offset property of the StringNumber object, it allows to move it both vertically and horizontally. e.g: %%% \version "2.6.0" \score { { \set fingeringOrientations = #'(up) \set stringNumberOrientations = #'(down) \set Staff.instrument = "C Major" \clef treble \time 2/4 8-2 d'16-4 e'16-1 f'16-2 g'16-4 a'16-1 b'16-3 | \override StringNumber #'extra-offset = #'(1 . -2) 8-1 \revert StringNumber #'extra-offset d''16-3 e''16-1 f''16-2 g''16-4 a''16-1 b''16-3 | c'''8-4 b''16-3 a''16-1 g''16-3 f''16 e''16 d''16 | c''8 b'16 a'16 g'16 f'16 e'16 d'16 | c'4 r4 \bar "|." } } % EOF %%% greetings, Vincent On Sun, 07 Aug 2005 01:19:07 +0200, Randy Keeling <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Greetings, I just started to use Lilypond today and I have run into a problem (surprise).
