segno on barline in 2.0.0
I came up with this example trying to get a segno on a barline. I tried an old and a new way to do this. Can someone tell what's going on and/or how to get a segno on a barline in 2.0.0?

Re: opinion on next install
Hello! I'm trying to compile lilypond-2.0.0 but unsuccessfully :(((. I'm using gcc-3.3.1. It doesn't compile (even with the patch) with flex-2.5.4a. It compiles with flex-2.5.31 but seems buggy (it segfaults when parsing starts :( ). I hope it will compile with flex-2.5.27... I don't know if it comes from my release of gcc (g++-3.3.1 is not anymore compatible with g++-3.2) or from flex. How did the packagers ???

Transposing chord names
I am unable to transpose chord names correctly. If I enter chords as e1:m7 f1:maj7 etc then they print correctly on the score but do not transpose with the rest of the score. My notes and key signature do transpose correctly. If I enter e-minor7 chord as <> then it transposes but displays as D6/sus4/sus2/add3/add6/add6/add8/add#8/add10 !!! Not an easy chord to read.

feature request: better chord tremolo with whole notes
How about having better support for chord tremolos when whole notes are involved?

Any changes to see that in 2.1? :-) \score { \notes \context Voice \relative c' { \clef "bass" \repeat "tremolo" 16 {g32 e32} \repeat "tremolo" 4 {g32 e32} r4 r2 } } Pedro ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

individual tie directions in chords
in the following: \score { \notes \relative c' { ~ } \paper { raggedright = ##t} } it seems clear to me that the tie between g's should go up, to avoid colliding with the tie between f's. unfortunately, that does not follow the rule of curving away from staff center. i have not been able to find a way of controlling tie DIRECTION for individual notes in a chord. i suppose the method of placing the tie engraver at thread level (shown in regression/tie-chord-partial.ly) would work, but in the context of a succession of chords, where only one needs this treatment, isn't it difficult to switch between that and the regular use of the tie engraver? is there no simpler way to do this? -p ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Manual correction?
In the section on "An orchestral part" in the reference manual, hornNotes is called in the code with \notes \transpose c' f \hornNotes and referenced in the text as follows: "The code \transpose f c' indicates that the argument, being \hornNotes, should be transposed by a fifth downwards: sounding f is denoted by notated c', which corresponds with tuning of a normal French Horn in F. The transposition can be seen in the following output:" This cognative dissonance is present in the manuals for 1.8 and 2.0.

I don't wan't to see these bar numbers. The final answer for removing the time signature, the bars AND the bar numbers (if any) is to put the next two rules into the Score context: \property Staff.TimeSignature = \turnOff \property Score.timing = \turnOff That does the job! I hope this closes this issue.
