If you have several tempo instructions of this kind and don't use text scripts for anything else, you can change the default font instead of specifying italic for every single occassion. /Mats ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Two questions (probably easy: Chords and rit.)
Hi Erwin, 1) How get I a rit. (for ritardando) in my score? Is there a standard way or do I have to use rit. on some note? on a quarter note of C: c4-rit. 2) Is it possible to get Chords in Jaz mode with a different bass note (like C7/G or G/B)? I coudn't find it in the documentation? c:7/+g or g/+b search the docu for bass and inversion, that should yield results. Don't use the inversion function in jazz mode, i.e c:7/g or g/b, that delivers chord symbols where the bass note is explicitly negated in the symbol, e.g G5/B. That's not desirable. All the best, Amy ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Two questions (probably easy: Chords and rit.)
Erwin, I won't touch the chords question. I always hover over the manual whenever I want to do something more than basic chords. For the ritarando, I would use a \mark instead of a text object. If you are using 1.7.x you can use the new \markup syntax to select an italic font. It is much easier than the old syntax. My scores contain, 2 variant copies of the global voice that is mentioned in the tutorial. One puts in breaks and marks. So you put the ritardando in here. It is only used in \score blocks that are for printed output. The other has no breaks or marks but has \tempo changes where need to match ritardandi, fermati, etc. It is used only in \score blocks that are for midi output. If you combine the 2 global voices, then you get warnings that lilypond is junking the tempo requests when doing the processing for printable output. By doing the trick that I use, the generated midi's tempo reflects the markup. Is anyone else doing fancy tricks with their source to make the midi output more correctly correspond to the score (or to how a piece would typically be performed)?

Re: Two questions (probably easy: Chords and rit.)
I can't answer your first question, but the second question was a problem I also had. To make G/B, you would use g/+b I believe for C7/G you would use c:7/+g For Am7/E, you would use a:m7/+e I hope that helps!
