I doubt, however, that one can express all details of melismata and word repetition in the note part only. -- David Kastrup ___ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond

Hardly more work and quite more robust with regard to juggling around with voices and context. Unfortunately, you don't get the correct horizontal alignment of syllables to notes, nor can you get extender lines (see the notation reference 2.1.1 Manual syllable durations), unless you set associatedVoice, so it's not a good solution. I cannot really see any fundamental reason why we have this limitation. It seems to me that we should be able to align to the note column just as well as to a note in a single voice, see also http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=707. /Mats -- = Mats Bengtsson Signal Processing School of Electrical Engineering Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) SE-100 44 STOCKHOLM Sweden Phone: (+46) 8 790 8463 Fax: (+46) 8 790 7260 Email: mats.bengts...@ee.kth.se WWW: http://www.ee.kth.se/~mabe = ___ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond

I'd say with \revert you revert the override of the grace note before it has
been used.
better use \once to override the size of the g, or revert the note heads
size after the slashed grace is done:
\override NoteHead #'font-size = #4g
\slashedGrace a16(

In this particular case, it would likely be safer to use a \tweak.
tweaks are not timing-related and thus are impervious to the quirks of
grace note timing.

Thanks for the advice. I guess I'm surprised the revert doesn't happen
immediately. This arose in a more complicated context where I don't think
doing tweaks is relevant; the initial override is from a function where I'm
notating a strum.

Adding an extra voice makes it hard to put in lyrics that are sung to both
the strumming as well as the plucked notes:
\new Voice = melody
{
\strumFn { c8[ c] } \acciaccatura a'16 b'8
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto melody { when I sing }
I'm still not clear why this is happening in the first place. Why should the
revert affect an override that occurs in the following expression?

I'm not top posting.
Sorry if this is a dup. I did a quick web search, and code.google.com
search, and didn't see anything close.
The following doesn't do what I'd expect. The grace note has the large
font size; I'd expect it to be its regular size (ie, small). Let me know if you
need any more information or context.

\override NoteHead #'font-size = #1
