figured bass above/below notes?
There are two ways of adding figured bass: (a) \new Staff \mybassnotes \new Figured Bass \myfigures which gives figures below the staff, arranged ina horizontal line (b) \new Staff = bassStaff \mybassnotes \context Staff = bassStaff \myfigures which puts the figures in vertical positions depending on the position of the corresponding note. (b) puts figures above the notes by default. Can it be made to put them below the notes? I looked at the documentation, didn't find it.

Re: Arrow arpeggio
Is there any easy solution to make an arrow (up or down) out of an arpeggio? Somenthing like \arpeggioUp or \arpeggioDown but instead of getting a zigzag line, get a straight arrowed line. I'd be interested in this too. From property-init.ly you can see that the stencil for the arpeggion object can be changed. Here's how it's set for the bracket: \override Arpeggio #'stencil = #ly:arpeggio::brew-chord-bracket Anybody knows if, and in that case how, to pass this object another stencil that draws a line? In safe-lily.scm only two values are listed for the ly:arpeggio: 'print' and 'brew-chord-bracket' /henrik ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

problem to open Lilypond
Hi there, I have a problem to run Lilypond: After Lylipond has been correctly installed, i get to the welcoming Lylipad screen. At point n°4 it says: To print or to view the result, click on the newly produced file called WELCOME_TO_LILYPOND.pdf But: 1. The pdf. file on my desktop isn't called that way, but only lylipond file; 2. Once i've clicked on it, it opens on a nice C scale, and then? HOW DO I GET TO THE PROGRAM ITSELF ??? 3. Is it because i don't have any Visio or Corel Draw installed on my machine? I downloaded then a program called DIA ( supposed to be as good as MicrosoftVisio, and it doesn't change a thing).

Hi vanessa, this is a common mistake Lilypond is not really a 'program' it is more like a programming language. you write instructions in lilypond code in a text editor. there is a tutorial here http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.10/Documentation/user/lilypond/Tutorial D On 15 Jun 2007, at 09:40, Vanessa Laboisne wrote: Hi there, I have a problem to run Lilypond: After Lylipond has been correctly installed, i get to the welcoming Lylipad screen.

rests problem
I checked the manual and thought that I was doing it correctly. in example 1- the 8th rests are colliding with the notes for the lower part. The manual states that I can use a note (f\rest) However example 2 below is more than totally bizzare as it raises all sorts of notes but not the rests So what should I be using?
