A few new things have been introduced since then, which could have caused the bug. If you can compile other scores (or test ly files), I doubt that it would be your setup.

chords w/ornaments
hi all, when typesetting chords, any ornamentation must be applied to one of the notes inside the chord bracket. i think it would make more sense to apply the ornament to the chord itself though... current: c1\fermata a e, my suggestion: c1 a e.\fermata would this make sense to anybody else, or is this my warped way of thinking? greetings, simon. -- Don't be irreplaceable, if you can't be replaced, you can't be promoted. ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

The question was not how you do it in Lilypond but how you do it as a performing musician. David's point is that it doesn't make sense to apply an ornament to a chord. /Mats On Wed, 2002-09-18 at 09:28, David Raleigh Arnold wrote: A fermata isn't an ornament.

Bar size (2nd time)
Yesterday I posted this message which was refused because it was too big. I reduced the size of the PNG image, so now it should be ok. -- Original message -- Date: Tue, 17 Sep 2002 17:09:47 +0200 (CEST) From: Maurizio Tomasi [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Bar size Hello to everybody. I have attached a tarball containing a small extract from a score I am typesetting now (Mozart Concerto for Piano KV. 459). I have some problems when creating the solo part for the second movement (you can see them in the PNG preview of the first page; if you want to recreate the score, simply do ly2dvi -P k459-solo.ly). You can see how the first 25 bars are rests which are combined in a single multimeasure rest. This bar is too much wide, and the first two lines of music are tightly spaced. Am I doing something wrong? Another question: if you look at bar 48, the left hand staff has a clef change which steals space to the right hand staff (the last note - a - in the right hand staff is distant from the next barline). This is not necessary, since the left hand staff has a lot of free space where to place the bass clef even without shifting notes in the right hand staff. The effect is not pleasant, since the whole bar seems to be too much empty. Thanks a lot for your suggestions.

Extender lines combined with slurs
I am trying to get a single word put under the first note of a three-note slur and an extender line under the other two. However I can't see any way to do this. Since there are no new words under the second and third notes I have to enter the blank lyric _ , but then the extender line stops very short. In the example of the online manual, the program seems to know that notes slurred together only take a single lyric, however when I run the example on the computer it doesn't work - each _note_ gets its own lyric! Please tell me what is going on - is there some sort of version clash here, since I am running the version that comes automatically installed on the SuSE Linux Professional package.

Settings for a hymn book
The following should be the first of several consecutive chants and hymns. The first
score is a salutation, and the second is the response.
There are two things I would like to change, but don't know how:
1) The notes (especially in the second score) seem to be vertically centered on the
staff, with excessive space between them. I would like them to be left-aligned, and
closely spaced.
2) I would like the opus header to appear only once, before the first score, and not
twice, before each score.
Help will be appreciated.
