To be honest though, this seems to point to the opposite, i.e. > that the "local" LP GhostScript is unhappy, while the one I invoke directly > from the command line (presumably the one provided with the distro) can > transform PS into PDF without any problems. When you type the gs command at the commandline, you will get the distribution's version of gs. It will run with a self-consistent set of libraries and files, and should process your PS file into a PDF file successfully. When you run LP, it will ask gs to convert the file. However, which version of gs runs, LP's or the system's? Will it be happy running with LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/home1/myusername/lilypond/usr/lib"? Do I know if LP's symlinks are set up correctly? Not really. Do you yet know which distribution is running? What version of tar do you have? $ tar --version The only difference I can see at present between the symlinks that work (fonts) and those that don't (libs) is that the latter point to files in the same directory. tar is/has been quite buggy in the area of symlinks. In all cases, the symlinks precede the targets in your tar archive. I can't help wondering what goes on between the usr/lib directory, the symlink and the target file during the interval while the directory is being populated.

FWIW, I've used \repeatTie in situations like this as well: \repeat volta 2 { c4 c4 ( } \alternative { { c4 ) r } { c2 \repeatTie } } Naturally, you can adjust its shape with the \shape command if desired, but this usually gives a pretty good starting shape.

Single slur with two endings (well, kind of) for repeats
Hi Suppose something like \repeat volta 2 { c4 c4( } \alternative { {c4) r} {c2) } %%% this } the second end slur is not typeset. is there any elegant way to draw it, or i should try to make an invisible note somewhere?

Devs, Both SystemStartBrace and SystemStartBracket have this property set by default, but SystemStartSquare does not.

Hide SystemStartSquare if Staff is removed?
I'm working on an orchestral score wherein the string parts play some extended passages divisi, and it makes sense to divide the staves during those passages. When they are playing in unison, I'd like to hide the second staff. However, when the second staff is hidden, the SystemStartSquare is still visible. Simply adding \override StaffGroup.SystemStartSquare.transparent to the relevant systems does not work. It seems as though once transparency is set to ##t, it won't switch back later. Any help is greatly appreciated. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Basically, for those who can't load it, I want to create a tie from a "chord" into a "new voice." It's fairly common in classical literature, but I am wondering if this is possible even, or yet. Ties into chords from chords/notes that only share part of the chord notes already do exactly what you appear to need. No trickery (hidden notes to cross voices etc) is necessary here: \new Staff << { d''1~ | d''1~ | 2 | } \\ { d'1~ | d'1~ | d'1 | } >> If you prefer, you can avoid the '\\' syntax by using << { \voiceOne % notes for upper voice } \new Voice { \voiceTwo % notes for lower voice } >> Rutger ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
