Something like #'height-limit for ties in 2.8.1?
Hi list, (version 2.8.1 on debian sarge) With \override Slur #'height-limit = #'3 it is possible to get a slur with higher maximum point. I'm very surprised to realize, that there doesn't seem to be the same feature for ties. Or couldn't I simply find it? Thanks for any help ...

Problem with polyphony - noteheads don't merge
Hello, I am typesetting a classical guitar piece, with four voices in the same staff. I tried different possibilities to include \override Staff.NoteCollision #'merge-differently-headed = ##t But the noteheads won't merge (see picture unmerged.png). If I replace the note in the third voice by an invisible break (e is replaced by s), it works perfectly. (picture: merged.png). Does anyone have an idea how to fix the problem?

change alignment of Lyric with extender
[ Lilypond 2.8.1 ] Hello, all! I tweak some of the lyrics in my piece(s) to make the note spacing a little more pleasing -- I have even defined some presets, e.g., lyrLH = { \once \override LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #-0.5 } lyrRH = { \once \override LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #0.5 } which means align this syllable halfway to left-aligned and ... right-aligned, respectively. This is working fabulously, EXCEPT where the lyric has an extender (__), in which case an override like lyrRH has no effect (i.e., the syllable remains in the default position, fully left-aligned). Can anyone tell me how I can override the alignment of an extended syllable? Thanks, Kieren. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: Helping with the documentation
Quoting Bart Kummel [EMAIL PROTECTED]: One of the reasons that earlier wiki's weren't a big success could be that people do not want another place to look for documentation. Therefore the best solution (in my opinion) is to replace the current docs with a wiki. I think the way the documentation is done now is a little bit oldfashioned. It may be good for the linux-geeks amongst the lilypond users. But for Windows users, who generally have less knowledge about operating systems, it is now not easy to use and/or to contribute. Actually, one of the earlier wiki's was actually integrated into the manual, so you could click at a button at the bottom of each page in the on-line manual in order to add or read comments, suggestions for updates and so on. Still, the number of contributions was extremely small. Actually, I would say that the number of people who have contributed constructively to the documentation over the last months is much larger than we ever had earlier and as long as Graham thinks the editing task is managable, we shouldn't complain. /Mats ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

using oneVoice vs force-hshift in polyphany and alternatives
Sure, the notes are in the right place. The interaction between the various parts is baffling though. Using \oneVoice to set the notes over one another seems to make the stems go up; \stemDown erases the effect of \oneVoice and \oneVoice cancels \stemDown. Apparently \override NoteColumn #'force-hshift = #0.0 accomplishes the what I want without side effects. What is \oneVoice meant to be used for? Can someone list separately all the things it does? Finally, I don't understand the scoping rules at play here. How come I can comment out some of the stem overrides while leaving them in effect?

changing measure/BarLine spacing defaults
[ Lilypond 2.8.1 ] Hello, all! I'd like to put a little extra padding around every BarLine -- i.e., I find that Lilypond puts the first note too close to the beginning of the measure and the last note too close to the end. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find the right combination of space- alist values -- can anyone give me a hint? Or is BarLine.space-alist not the thing I should be messing with? Thanks, Kieren. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: using oneVoice vs force-hshift in polyphany and alternatives
Quoting Stephen [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Sure, the notes are in the right place. The interaction between the various parts is baffling though. Using \oneVoice to set the notes over one another seems to make the stems go up; \stemDown erases the effect of \oneVoice and \oneVoice cancels \stemDown. Apparently \override NoteColumn #'force-hshift = #0.0 accomplishes the what I want without side effects. What is \oneVoice meant to be used for? Can someone list separately all the things it does? See Sect. Explicitly instantiating voices for a list of what \voiceOne, ..., \voiceFour do. \oneVoice reverts the settings done by any of \voiceOne ... \voiceFour, so among others it does a \revert Stem #'direction which is what you noted. /Mats Finally, I don't understand the scoping rules at play here.

Re: Extraneous Text Notation Placement (Verse, Chorus, Bridge, etc.)
You can easily typeset a text annotation below or above a note using c^Text above or c_Text below respectively, as described in the section of Text scripts in the manual. See also the section on Text marks. However, your example code below doesn't include any chords, so I can't say how that solves your problem. Note also that \markup{ Verse 1 } is completely equivalent to Verse 1. The only reason to use \markup is if you want to do some fancy layout, like changing the font size/shape or including music symbols or ... /Mats Quoting bryan murdaugh [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I'm using 2.8.1-1. This is what I tried (this yields an error) verseonemelody = \relative c { \clef treble \key c\major \time 6/8 r4.\markup { Verse 1 } r4 e'8 g4.~ g8 f8 d8 e16 g16~ g4~ g4 (this puts the markup inline with the text) verseonelyrics = \lyricmode { \set stanza = 1. { \markup { Verse 1 } Our Sav -- ior has ris -- en. I was able at one point, though I do not know how, to get the markup to appear between the staves and the chord line, but I can't seem to reproduce that behavior. I'm very confused about where the \markup keyword is appropriate.

setting word-space more globally?
Is there any way that the word-space property can be set more globally, instead of within each specific \markup itself? Specifically is there any way that I can set word-space property at the Lyrics staff level? I use the following markup repeatedly and I want to find a way to shorten up my source code because constantly resetting word-space is redundant: varDomSevFltFivIII = \markup {\override #'(word-space . 0.1) \center-align { \line { D { \super \line { 7 \flat 5 } } } { \fret-diagram-terse #4;x;4;5;3;x; } } } Since I use several variables like the above in the Lyrics staff, I want to set word-space at Lyrics level and eliminate it from each specific variable. (because there are several variables like the above that contain this same redundant word-space expression). Also usage of word-space is not documented in the manual, it may be an item to add, same for baseline-skip.

Re: Beaming- help needed
The corresponding command if you have \set something is \unset, as described in Section 9.1.2 Changing context properties on the fly. /Mats Quoting Geoff Horton [EMAIL PROTECTED]: \revert is your friend.
