Multi Measure Rests in Cadenzas
I have a cadenza where Staff A rests while Staff B plays and after the cadenza
Staff A comes back in.
In the below minimal example, there is an extra rest added above the note when
Staff A comes back in. How do I get rid of this rest? If I use r1 instead of R1
I don't have this issue (but I need to use R1 as my cadenzas are longer than a
single measure)

Centering footnote for analysis
Hello everyone,
I am trying to attach a footnote to the center of a glissando as pictured

for attaching it to a grob (NR 3.3.4)
Here is my snippet:

Altering repeat dot style
Hello everyone, Can I have some help making a repeat sign that looks like the image attached? I figured out how to reduce the height of the bar lines, but I am unable to properly change the dots to diamonds. Right now, I have adapted the code from LSR 913<https://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=913> by changing the dots.dot glyph to noteheads.s2neomensural. The only issue with this is that it changes all of the repeat dots throughout the score, and I am looking for a function that works like \once \override. I have attached a snippet showing the work I have done so far. If you know a better way to do this, please let me know! Thank you, Calvin Ransom Repeat.ly Description: Repeat.ly

Altering the appearance of a time signature.
Hello everyone,
Can you help me create a time signature that has spacing like the attached? I
would like to have the numerator centred near the 4th line and the denominator
centred near the 2nd line with space in between the characters. I have figured
out how to adjust the font size but I have not been able to figure out how to
adjust the placement of the individual characters. I have included a link to
the relevant part of the internals reference I used.

Automatic Clef Change
Hi everyone, I want to avoid excessive ledger lines in my score and have LilyPond change the clef automatically. I am creating a computer generated piece with LilyPond that covers the entire pitch gamut. \autochange does not work for this application because it can only use two clefs and it uses two staves. I would like to use the treble, bass and the octave transposition bass and treble clefs. Does anyone have a pre-existing function for this or for something similar? Regards, Calvin Ransom
Re: Feedback wanted: syntax highlighting in the LilyPond documentation
Hi Jean, I think it sounds like a really good idea. Would it be possible to have a menu for changing the highlighting settings to create some customizability? I'm not familiar with web development at all so I don't know if this would be difficult to implement. Good luck! Calvin Ransom Calvin Ransom From: lilypond-user on behalf of Valentin Petzel Sent: Saturday, January 1, 2022 5:53 PM To: Jean Abou Samra; lilypond-user@gnu.org Cc: David Kastrup; Lilypond-User Mailing List Subject: Re: Feedback wanted: syntax highlighting in the LilyPond documentation Hello Jean, hello David, I do like the idea, but I do agree with David to some extent. Syntax highlighting should emphasize the structure of the file and thus make reading easier. But if it gets too colorful in terms of contrast of colors the colors simply distract you. For example there is no good reason for coloring all numbers some outstanding way. Frescobaldi does this, but that just creates distracting dots of color in the code. And numbers tend to be quite discernible, so you do not really need a special color to mark them. That being said your color scheme is much better than Frescobaldi’s scheme, which is appallingly distracting. See the appended file for a comparison of Frescobaldi and KDE Kate (which is by no means perfect, but at least an improvement...). I think your color scheme could be improved easily by doing something like in the other screenshot (taking the same snippet as David). Cheers, Valentin Am Sonntag, 2.

Re: how to not specify midi instrument?
Hi Tom, * What software are you opening the file in? * What operating system are you using? * What keyboard are you trying to connect to (if you have a digital manual that would be very helpful) You can specify the instrument of the music using midiInstrument<https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/using-midi-instruments> for the standard midi instruments. Midi Instrument List<https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/midi-instruments> I suspect the issue is not with LilyPond but with your midi driver setup and the connection between your computer and your keyboard.

Explicit placement of rests in a percussion staff
Good afternoon everyone,
I am trying to move the vertical position of a rest in some percussion
music I am typesetting for my teacher.
I am using v. 2.22.0
In the manual it says 'To explicitly specify a rest’s vertical position,
write a note followed by \rest."
When I use the following snippet it does not work and gives me an error
message:
*start of snippet*
\score{
\new DrumStaff
\drummode {
bd4
}
}
%end of snippet%
with this error message:
'error: syntax error, unexpected \rest'

Thanks Robin, That worked! What did you type into the mailing list as I could not find that particular thread earlier?

Re: Changing music font for one notehead
Hi Robert,
The attached jpg. is what I get when I use that exact snippet (minus the
font override) within frescobaldi, notice how there is no notehead.
Can you send me what the output it loads for you?
\version "2.22.0"
\paper {
#(define fonts
(set-global-fonts
#:music "lilyjazz"
)
)
}
\score{
\drummode {
\override NoteHead.style = #'cross
cab1:32\fermata
}
}
Confused,
Calvin

Changing music font for one notehead
Hi all,
I am copying a percussion score for my school's Jazz band as a previous
musician lost their part. I was able to use the alternate font "lilyjazz"
However, on the final note of the score it does not support a whole-note
with a cross style notehead.
I am hoping to change the notehead font to emmentaler but keep the
lilyjazz font on the fermata.
%begin snippet
\paper {
#(define fonts
(set-global-fonts
#:music "lilyjazz"
)
)
}
\score{
\drummode {
\override NoteHead.style = #'cross
\override NoteHead.font-name = "emmentaler" %this is as far as I was
able to get before I reached out for assistance.
cab1:32\fermata
}
}
%end snippet
Applying ragged bottom to specific pages
%Hello everyone, %Is there a way to apply ragged bottom to specific \include files? \version "2.22.0" \include "file 1" %contains ragged-bottom =##t \PageBreak \include "file 2" %do not want ragged-bottom \PageBreak \include "file 3" %want ragged bottom %apologies if my responses are slow, I am currently not allowed to use lilypond as much as I would like % %Calvin Ransom %British Columbia
Re: Keeping original system distances
I found that with how my files are set up, it works best to set a ragged-bottom as \bookpart caused some issues with the title placement. Thanks so much for the help!

headers when using \include
I am attempting to place two separate scores into one file using \include, my current issue is that the two scores have different titles and instruments but currently it is only showing one of the titles and one of the instrument names, is there a way I can prevent it from doing that? Cheers, Calvin R British Columbia
Remove "Solo" text when using part combiner
New LilyPond user here, I am combining some piano parts and LilyPond engraves the word "Solo" in various places, is there any way to prevent this from happening? Thanks, Calvin
