Re: Suppressing numbers on tupelos

Hi Erich,

>  \once \override TupletNumber.text = #()

Since you used \once, that definitely wouldn’t suppress all the numbers.

In any case, the correct code is

\omit TupletNumber

or

   \hide TupletNumber

if you want it to still take up space.

Hope that helps,
Kieren.

An alternative to Kieren’s solution: Don’t use the \tuplet command but 
scaled eights.


c8*2/3 d e
% or
\scaleDurations 2/3 { c8 d e }

% Kieren’s solution:
%\omit TupletNumber
%\tuplet 3/2 { c8 d e }

Well, the question has been answered as is already.  But doesn't this
call for \time 6/8 or similar instead?

I probably should do somrething like

   \once \override TupletNumber.text = #()

but that does not work.
What will work?

Likely not. In the 18th century at least, there are subtle differences 
(of which we know too little); a 2/4 time with only triplets and 6/8 
time can not be considered equivalent (e.g. in terms of tempo and 
stress). Besides, one doesn’t need to dot all the crotchets.
One might consider, if that be appropriate and convenient, using { \time 
2/4 \set Timing.measureLength = #(ly:make-moment 6/8) } or vice versa.


Yours, Simon
