More than one \book?
I've wondered about this for a while. In the following section of the doc it says: 10.4.1 Paper size . . .if the \paper block is at the top of the file, then it will apply to all pages. If the \paper block is inside a \book, then the paper size will only apply to that book. The construction here sounds as if more than one \book might be possible although when I try it only the first book is recognized. I can envisage that multiple books could be useful. Is there a way?

Tie anomaly in \set tieWaitForNote
Tie Anomaly
LilyPond 2.8.0 on Debian Linux, installed using the GUB
There seems to be an anomaly with ties when using the \set
tieWaitForNote feature, in version 2.8.0. I noticed this anomaly when I
was trying to manually format a tie column between a grace-note arpeggio
and the following chord.
Attached is a LilyPond snippet and a PNG image of the output of that
snippet, to illustrate the point. Notice that the tie for the third note
(second tie from the bottom of the tie column) is not associated with
the correct note, or more accurately, does not begin at the correct
note.--
--- begin LilyPond snippet ---
\version "2.8.0"
\score {
\new Staff \relative c'' {
\clef treble \key c \major \time 4/4
\set tieWaitForNote = ##t e8~ c~ a~ f~ 2 |
}
}
--- end LilyPond snippet

Just remove the curly brackets indicated below, I don't think they are

Have a look in the manual, Section 6.1.6 'Rests.' You can specify where
the rest goes:
alto = \relative c' {
e\rest
f4 f
}
Hope this helps!

Hiding ledger lines?
I'm working on a piece that has two lines (soprano and alto) on the
same staff. The alto has a helf-rest where the soprano has music, and
because of the pitches in the soprano line, the alto rest is set on a
ledger line at middle C. I don't want it there; I want it sitting on
the e-line, so I moved it with an #'extra-offset. The ledger line is,
however, still plainly visible and unsightly. (The sample below is at
200% magnification to make it more obvious, but it's quite visible at
actual size.)
In checking the archives, I found a 2004 discussion that eventually
reached the conclusion that ledger lines aren't erasable. Is this
still the case? If so, is there another way to make this output look
better?
Source:
\version "2.8.0"
soprano = \relative c'' {
a4 a a a
}
alto = \relative c' {
\once \override Rest #'extra-offset = #'(0 . 1.0) r2
f4 f
}
\paper {
ragged-right = ##t
}
\score {
\context Staff <<
\context Voice = one { \voiceOne \soprano }
\context Voice = two { \voiceTwo \alto }

Okay
I found an example in Mutopia that shows something
similar to what I want.
I think this might be useful to add to the snippet
directory, but before I do, I would your opinion, if something could be
improved:
\version "2.6.5"\relative c' { \clef
treble \key c \major \time 3/8
fis16.[( a64 g]) { \once
\override TupletBracket #'number-visibility = ##f \once
\override TupletBracket #'bracket-visibility = ##f \override
NoteHead #'font-size = #-4 \override Accidental #'font-size =
#-4 \stemDown \times 3/42 { fis8[( g gis a bes b c cis d dis
e f fis g gis a bes! b c cis d]) } \revert NoteHead
#'font-size \revert Accidental #'font-size }
es32.[ fis,,64] }

Problems with titling layout
Hi folks,
I have a score set out as follows:
**
\version "2.8.0"
\header{
subtitle = \markup{\italic "Brantwood"}
title = "I Know Thee Who Thou Art"
poet = "Albert Orsborn"
composer = "arr. Ray Steadman-Allen"
arranger = "transc. Cameron Horsburgh"
meter = "Version 1.0"
instrument = "Full Score"
}
\score{
<>
\layout{
line-width = #250
}
}
\paper{
#(set-paper-size "a4" 'landscape)
% left-margin = #30
% horizontal-shift = #30
indent = #10
}
If I compile this, the titling comes out fine, but the instrument names
don't fit on the left hand side of the score. (I have 13 instruments in
the music, so the first system doesn't fit on the first page. I'm happy
with this--it gives me a nice title page).
So I set line-width = #250 in the layout block and set left-margin = #30
in the \paper block. The music fits on the page quite nicely.
However, the titles are all offset to the right, meaning that the title,
subtitle and instrument name are off centre, and the composer and
arranger don't fit properly on the page (please see the attached pdf).
I tried setting horizontal-shift = #30, with the same effect.
I don't remember this being a problem in the past. Any idea how to get
my titles set in the right places without mucking up the rest of my score?
