Accidentals and thickness

2017-08-28 Thread SoundsFromSound
Hello list,

Can someone tell me the easiest way to adjust the thickness / thinness of
accidentals in LilyPond? 

Not the size of the accidentals, just the actual thickness level for them.
I've tried a few overrides w/ regards to contexts but nothing does what I
had hoped it would...thank you!

Hi Ben,

the accidentals are font characters, so you’d need to choose another 
font or make your own version…

Not to speak of faking it using something like
\markup\scale #'(0.8 . 1) \musicglyph #""
but that would be an emergency solution – and also you speak of not 
altering the size. So that’s it.


Best, Simon

Hi Simon,

Ah, yes that does make sense now to me thank you. I think then for this
situation I just should tweak the size down a bit and let it go. :) Was
hoping there was an easy way to thin out the accidental marking just a tad,
but it's really not a big deal.

Have a good day!
