Re: \partcombine with chordal instruments
Hi, I've been asked to typeset two guitar parts in an orchestral score. For the full score the parts could be combined on one staff for which \partcombine is good except where there are chords involved: You could do something like: \version 2.18.0 guitarI = { \partcombineUnisono e' a' e''2. r4 \partcombineChords e' a' e''2. r4 \partcombineAutomatic } guitarII = { e' a' e''2. r4 e' b' e''2. r4 } \partcombine \guitarI \guitarII I don't know about the dots in the second chord. To me it seems ok,but I never play chords myself. Greetings, Ed ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: \partcombine with chordal instruments
Thank you for steering me in the right direction - somehow I must have glazed over at that point in the documentation. It looks like there is enough in those commands to do the job at hand.

\partcombine with chordal instruments
I've been asked to typeset two guitar parts in an orchestral score. For the full score the parts could be combined on one staff for which \partcombine is good except where there are chords involved: \version 2.18.0 guitarI = { e' a' e''2. r4 e' a' e''2. } guitarII = { e' a' e''2. r4 e' b' e''2. } \score { \new Staff \partcombine \guitarI \guitarII } The first chord here looks like it has too many dots and the doubled stems are not desirable here I guess. Does anyone know if there is an agreed standard for engraving this and how to achieve it in LilyPond? The parts should be capable of being included in a \score {} block as separate parts, so solutions need to leave the actual definitions of the music of the parts intact (more or less). Any help with this would be much appreciated. Richard ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
