Unable to produce slur in ossia staff
Hi, my name is Seng and I seem to have run into a problem when using
Lilypond 2.18.2 on Windows 7. I'm trying to include an ossia staff which
contains a principal note and two ending grace (Aftergrace) notes. I also
want a slur to connect the principal note and the second grace note, but
when I compiled the score, Lilypond gives a warning where it tells me it
cannot end the slur and there is an unterminated slur. The output file
does not have any slur at all. Here is an example of the problem:
\version "2.18.2"
\new Staff = "main" \relative c'' { \time 2/4
c2
<<
{ c2 }
\new Staff \with {
\remove "Time_signature_engraver"
alignAboveContext = #"main"
firstClef = ##f
}
{ \afterGrace c2( { b16[ c]) }
} >>
}
What is wrong?
Thank you.
Seng Liang.

figured bass problems
Hi, I have a problem with figured bass in Lilypond version 2.7.17 for Windows
(98). Here is the file:
\version 2.7.12
\relative {
\context Voice {
\clef bass
f,8 f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f g g g g c, c c c f f f f a a a a g g g g c, c

\context FiguredBass \figuremode { \set useBassFigureExtenders = ##t
r1 6 42.. 6 48 6\!2 74. 78 r2 64. 68 r2 r4 68 6\! 5 r2 6 6
\! 51 r2 6 54 } }
2 problems came up.
1. I wish to put two extender lines lined up vertically from the figure 6 4
in bar 2. But what happens in the output file is there is only one extender
line and it extends at a point between the figures 6 and 4. Is this a bug and
is it related to the operating system that I am using (Win98)? I know for a
fact that the above method works ( 6 42.. 6 48 ) because when I only typed
that bar (2nd bar), the 2 extender lines did appear.
2. How do I shorten the distance between the figured bass and the bass notes
above it? Is it possible to change the font and/or size of the figured bass
numbers as well?
Thank you.
Yours sincerely,
Seng Liang.

Lyric problems
Hi, I'm using Lilypond 2.7.12 for Windows 98 and I am having some lyric
difficulties. Here is the file:
\version 2.7.12
\relative c' {
\set Staff.instrument=Soprano
\clef treble #(set-accidental-style 'modern)
\key f \major
\time 2/4
\autoBeamOff \override Score.RehearsalMark #'padding = #2.5
f'2 g, c a' f { \tiny g c f,4 } \\ { \normalsize g,2 c f,4 } r4
\bar .|. }
\addlyrics { Al -- le -- lu -- ja, al -- le -- lu -- ja. }
I would like to know why are the lyrics in bar 6 to 8 missing?
For these bars, there are no changes in melisma and note durations, the only
difference is the pitch between these two voices.
Therefore, how can I make the words le, lu and ja appear only once
respectively on the notes g2 c2 and f4?
Thank you.

Piano centered pedal
Hi, I would like to know if I can make piano centered pedal marks much the same way as piano centered dynamics? I'm now using the piano centered dynamics template from the manual and I would just like to know what needs to be changed in order for it to work as piano centered pedals? Thank you.

score layout
Hi, I am typing a score for a work for voice and strings and I have a problem
with the score layout. I am using Lilypond version 2.7.12 for Windows (98).
Here is the file:
\version 2.7.12
\relative {
\new ChoirStaff
\new GrandStaff
\new Staff { \set Staff.instrument = Violins 1 c1 }
\new Staff { \set Staff.instrument = Violins 2 c }
\new Staff { \set Staff.instrument = Viola \clef alto c }
\new Staff { \set Staff.instrument = Voice c }
\new Staff { \set Staff.instrument = Bass \clef bass c, } }
As you can see, the score layout used is the old-styled layout, where the voice
staff lies between the viola and the bass. This layout is perfect except for
one thing; How do I connect the vertical barlines between the viola staff and
the violin staff above? The barline break between the viola and voice staff, as
well as between the voice and bass staff, is intended though.
Thank you very much.
Yours sincerely,
Seng Liang.

rehearsal mark question
Hi, I am using Lilypond 2.7.12 on Windows 98. As stated in the manual, rehearsal marks only appear above a staff. While this is true for most rehearsal marks, there are some exceptions. The most notable one being attacca. The attacca mark appears below a staff for every part, but only appears once in a full score below the bottom most staff. Therefore I would think this is a rehearsal mark and not a markup text. This creates a unique problem. While I can use the \override command to move the attacca mark below a staff for every staff, when combining them into a full score however, the attacca mark appears below the top most staff and not the bottom most. Is there a way to fix this? Thank you very much. Yours sincerely, Seng Liang. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Now please observe the ties in bar 43/44, 71, 83/84, 113/114. The ties are
incorrectly positioned vertically on the notes. Why is this? Is this another
bug in 2.7.12? I've included the entire file because when I tried to replicate
the individual bars with the ties, everything is ok( the ties are correctly
positioned when I only generate that particular bar). I know for certain that
this problem doesn't appear in versions 2.6.x
Secondly, why are there brackets appearing underneath the triplet notes, above
the 3 symbol in bars 31 and 97 respectively? I know from experience that only
the 3 symbol appears when using version 2.6.x Is there a way to get rid of
the brackets for the triplets?
I'm assumming that since both these problems occur in 2.7.12 and not in 2.6.x
that the problem lies in the programme and not the file itself. Can anybody
please help?
Thank you.
Yours sincerely,
Seng Liang.
P.S. I would be happy to send the pdf file if anyone would like to see it
instead of generating it themselves. I don't know if these problems are system
related (I'm using Windows 98). So if you use XP the problem might not appear
in your pdf file.

figured bass extender lines
Hi, I have a problem regarding figured bass extender lines in Lilypond version
2.7.12 for Windows. Here is the file:
\version 2.7.12
\relative {
\context Voice {
\time 4/4
\key c \major
\clef bass
c,8 c c c d d e e f4 }
\context FiguredBass \figuremode
{ \set useBassFigureExtenders = ##t
6 42 6 52 5 34 } }
Here, what I intend to do is to put the figured bass 6 4 for a duration of
a half note and 6 5 for the same duration, and 5 3 with a quarter note
duration. I would like extender lines to appear after 6 4 and 6 5 and run
the duration of figured basses. However, 3 problems crop up.
First, the extender line from the figure 6 extends from the first beat until
the 3rd beat, erasing the 6 from the 6 5 figure. How do I make the extender
line stop before the second 6 and start again after it, stopping at the end
of the bar?
Secondly, how do I make 2 extender lines to begin after 6 and 4 for the
first and second figured bass?
Lastly, if you look at the file, the order of the figured bass is from the top
(6 4 means 6 appears on top of 4). However, when I put 5 3 on bar 2, the
order is reversed in the pdf file. Why is this?
Thank you.
Yours sincerely,
Seng Liang.
