The situation where I have needed to explicitly define the Score context is to
remove engravers (time signature and bar number in this case.)
I would suggest adding something under 10.3.1 (Creating MIDI Files) in the 2.10
manual, maybe under the Bugs section.

Since you probably have read the documentation much more carefully than
I have, could you please provide
more specific hints on where to best
put this
information?

Refined trick for dynamics in vocal music
On 3/1/07, Arvid Grøtting <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I've started using \override DynamicText #'X-offset = #-2 in vocal pieces now. With 2.11, you only need to move them left; skyline stuff moves them down if possible. This is way, *way* cool. With very long dynamic texts, like \, you may need to put a \once \override... with another number just before that dynamic, of course. After several failed attempts, I believe I have discovered how to gracefully handle dynamic marks of all lengths: \override DynamicText #'self-alignment-X = #1 \override DynamicText #'X-offset = #(lambda (grob) (- (ly:self-alignment-interface::x-aligned-on-self grob) 0.9)) Where the 0.9 can be adjusted to move the mark by different amounts. I'm still not entirely pleased with the visual effect. I think the mark should probably not move as much to the left for low notes as it does for high notes, I don't know how to make that kind of tweak, if it's even possible.

Center-aligning objects in Scheme
I posted a message to this list a few days ago about automatically center-aligning some text under a Hairpin object (for example "molto" or "poco" ) but haven't received any responses. Whilst I've found how to combine markups using combine-at-edge I can't find how to center-align one to the other (if indeed this is possible, which I would hope it is.) Could someone give me some pointers about where to begin? It would save me a lot of time if I could get this working. Thanks in advance, Vivian. ___ The all-new Yahoo!

If I would use a skip I would have no rests there too... Ole<> ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: optional note
Maarten wrote: Hi, I'm writing choral music for organ. One of my chords is bigger than 1 octave, more specific it is My fingers are just long enough to play this chord, but I can imagine that others cannot. That's why I want to insert an extra optional note g (that is 1 octave higher). I use separate voices for tenor (the b) and bass (the g and g,). How can I mark the higher g as optional? Suggestions: - (g), that is: put round brackets around the g note head; See the section on "Parenthesis" - only set the higher g in a smaller fontsize and keep the lower g, in the original font size See the example called "grob-tweak.ly" in the Regression Test document. Is one of these suggestions possible? Or could it be done otherwise? Of course it's possible. ;-) /Mats ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
