kneed beams from one staff to another, even if

I think this would greatly improve the chords feature of LilyPond. I
don't think I've ever seen a Cmaj7/9/add13 chord in actual printed

I'd be happy to help with this in any way I can, even if it's only
testing. I can commit

We currently have issues with the chord naming functions of LilyPond. If we
pass a \chordmode chord to the the ChordNames construct, we very seldom get
out what we put in (i.e. c:maj13 will give Cmaj7/9/add13). This is because
we currently try to do the chord naming algorithmically.

maj13 is *not* a chord name, even though it seems like it is.
It is a description of which pitches to place in a chord.
What you will need to do is to add a chord name execption, as described in
the selected snippets of Notation Reference 2.7.2 Displaying chords.

Hello List
I want to print stopwatch timings in a score, surrounded by a little box. I've

get this right.

Hi,
Just wondering. What's the difference between
\set Staff.instrumentName = #"Violin I "
and
\set Staff.instrumentName = "Violin I "
since both seem to work in my little experiments.

Just insert a \bar "|." or \bar "|" or whatever bar type you want, after

How do you do that in Sibelius? Perhaps mirroring the same approach
would be the best.
3. Engrave a line when needed using draw-line as part of a markup

following problems:
