Re: Centred Piano Dynamics
As far as I understand, this copy/paste problem is only a problem if you use the PDF version of the manual. The HTML version should work better (especially if you click on the music example to see the full input but make sure not to copy the trash at the top of the file that's only needed to give a layout adapted to the HTML). However, I realize that it migh be a problem if you have a slow internet-connection since a local copy of the HTML version of the documentation isn't included in most packages. /Mats Graham Percival wrote: On 20-Aug-05, at 8:03 PM, Jay Hamilton, Sound and Silence wrote: Try typing the code in often the copy paste is not satisfactory but typing the material in often works.

Re: Centred Piano Dynamics
In addition to all previous answers, you may also want to take a look at http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2005-08/msg00130.html for a (in my opinion) much simpler alternative. /Mats Will Oram wrote: Does the template for centred dynamics in a piano staff found in the 2.6 manual actually work?

Centred Piano Dynamics
Does the template for centred dynamics in a piano staff found in the 2.6 manual actually work?
