\RemoveAllEmptyStaves and Dyanmics context line for piano pedals
I have a piano score which uses \RemoveAllEmpyStaves to remove staves where there is only activity in one staff. This works very nicely of course. I generally use a Dynamics context for pedalling, using sustain on and off events attached to spacer rests. This works perfectly of course also. Bu tinthis case, the pedal line does not show up as the \RemoveAllEmpty Staves deletes it. Had me puzzled all day until I figured that. But now I find the \RemoveEmptyStaves works and does not delete the pedal line. The NR says (A.20): RemoveAllEmptyStaves Remove staves which are considered to be empty according to the list of interfaces set by keepAliveInterfaces, including those in the first system. Sets grob property remove-empty in VerticalAxisGroup to #t. Sets grob property remove-first in VerticalAxisGroup to #t. RemoveEmptyStaves Remove staves which are considered to be empty according to the list of interfaces set by keepAliveInterfaces. Sets grob property remove-empty in VerticalAxisGroup to #t. Could somebody help me understand this? I can't quite see what the difference is between the keepAliveInterdfaces list is in the two cases. Or is it that RemoveAllEmptyStaves 'forcibly' removes the first staff? Andrew ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Left align first note of every system with its lyric
I've been trying to figure out a way to force left-alignment (LyricText.self-alignment-X = -1) on just the lyrics associated with the first notes of every system, but I haven't been able to get it working. What I was trying was overriding LyricText.after-line-breaking with a callback function to set self-alignment-X if it came immediately after a line break. However, this isn't working. Does anyone have some idea of a way to achieve this? Thanks, *Benjamin Bloomfield* ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: Piano staff notes across both staffs, another problem
Hi Andrew, Thanks for your replies. I understand that what I want is, in LilyPond, impossible by regular means, and/or unusual if realized by a weird trick, moving a note-head to the wrong side of the stem. That would be rather ugly, I think. Still, what I want to do is not my idea. To illustrate what I'm talking about I will have to include two more screenshots from serious publications. and . Different works from the same composer. Does it look wrong or repulsive? Would it really be impossible to realize it in LilyPond? Btw, I just see another posible dirty trick to realize it.

Something like this perhaps.

Re: Phrasing slur with multiple voices
Hi Brian, The way I do this is to shape the slur so that it extends past the A. This is fake out, but you can use \shape to do it, or the more flexible \shapeII function in the openlilylib library. Although this approach is a bit of a kludge, it ends up faster than artificially putting the first chord in a different voice just to do a slur. You could also put spacer rests in the voice to start the slur on, but that is also a hack.

Phrasing slur with multiple voices
I am just learning LilyPond, and to practice I’m engraving Dvořák’s Humoresque No. 1 in E-flat Minor, which is in 2/4 time. I’m stuck on the top staff in the attached image (measures 70 and 71). It seems that there are three voices in the last beat of the second measure. The phrasing slur needs to extend from the first chord in the first measure to the f'8 in the second measure. Since slurs can’t cross voices, I think the eighth notes in the second measure need to be in the same voice as the chord in the first measure? The closest I’ve come is the following: << {4\( | 4 \stemDown gf'8 f'\) } \\ { s2 | s4 cf' } \\ { s2 | s4 af' } >> But this produces a warning from LilyPond: "ignoring too many clashing note columns”, and the gf'8 in the second measure is not offset to the right from the cf' and af'. Suggestions? Brian___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Piano staff notes across both staffs, another problem
Dear all, I' ve been trying to connect, in a pianoscore, a top note in the lower staff with a chord in the upper staff. I tried the methods given in the documentation and those given in the previous discussion on this list, a few days ago, on this topic. They don't work for me because the stem directions of the notes to be joined are different. I thought that maybe I could join their stems in the gap by subtly using \override NoteColumn #'force-hshift = #x, but I don't know how to increase their stem lengths a wee bit without broadening the gap, as \override Stem #'length-fraction = #(magstep whatever) does. I also tried \override Stem.length = #x ,x being a number other than 0, but that always resulted in the stem disappearing completely. Since I cannot provide an ME I include a screenshot to illustrate the problem. Can anybody give me an advice? Thanks in advance.
