Peter -
Tune to suit.
%%
\version "2.8.5"
doubledash = {\once \override Voice.StemTremolo #'beam-thickness = #0.2 }
ddashg = _\markup { \postscript #" 0.4 setlinewidth -0.7 3.3 moveto 1.5 0.5
rlineto stroke -0.7 2.3 moveto 1.5 0.5 rlineto stroke " }

Subject: 17th century keyboard ornament
Hi all,
I'm trying to typeset some 17th century keyboard music from the Southern
Netherlands. An often used ornament is a slanted double dash through the
stem of the note (zie attached image - sorry for the bad quality).
I tried to adapt the tremolo:
-
\version "2.8.5"
doubledash = {\once \override Voice.StemTremolo #'beam-thickness = #0.2 }
\layout { ragged-right = ##t }
\score {
\relative c'
<<
\new Staff { \time 3/4 \doubledash g'':16 g g }
\new Staff { \clef bass << { r4 \doubledash bes,,2:16 } \\ { g2~ g4 } >> }
>>
}
-
This doesn't satisfy me. The vertical space between the dashes is too
large. Especially when the stem is short (as is with the bes in the
above example). I can't find a parameter to control this distance.
Can someone give me a suggestion how to typeset this ornament?
thanks in advance,
Peter van Kranenburg
