Cheers, - Graham And get the notes out of those \lilypondfiles. If your scores have more than one part, use sly for the notes. Then make one .ly file or as many different ones as you need, probably one will do, as a template and build the \lilypondfiles with a script. I have found this a very good way to proceed, except that I haven't had any reason to use sly to do it, because my scores in this particular project only have one part. I did not do that with the Ten Lessons at openguitar.com, I used \begin\end{lilypond}, but I wish I had. It would have made the upgrade to 1.6.2 a lot less painful, and saved me hours.

I would like them to be left-aligned, and closely spaced. I think you mean horizontally centered, not vertically centered. If you only have a short line (like your second piece), try setting \paper{linewidth=-1.0} 2) I would like the opus header to appear only once, before the first score, and not twice, before each score. When you define \header{} at the beginning of your ly file, you are actually specifying the default header to use for all \scores in that file. So LilyPond prints two sets of \headers (you don't notice the double-taglines since they're printed on top of each other, but you do notice the opus). To fix this, either move the \header definition inside the first score, or define \header{opus=} inside your second \score. Help will be appreciated. Here's a simple example of one way to modify your score: ** \score { [snip] } \score { [snip] \lyrics { A men. } \header{opus= } \paper{linewidth=-1.0} } - ie stick those two extra lines just before the last } in your last \score.

Re: Settings for a hymn book
In addition to Graham's answer, you may want to look into using lilypond-book instead of ly2dvi to get more possibilities to affect the layout. The idea of lilypond-book is that the main document is a standard LaTeX (or TeXinfo) file with included music, so you use standard LaTeX to get the formating you want. /Mats ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Settings for a hymn book
The titling layout given by ly2dvi contains many hard-coded settings (see the file tex/titledefs.tex). One solution is to keep a modified copy of titledefs.tex in the working directory, the problem is that it might break when you upgrade Lilypond. This is exactly why I proposed the alternative solution to use lilypond-book instead, where you have full control over the layout. /Mats Thank you. Both changes worked fine. But, is there a way for the 'opus' header to print left-aligned, instead of right-aligned? ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Settings for a hymn book
The following should be the first of several consecutive chants and hymns. The first score is a salutation, and the second is the response. There are two things I would like to change, but don't know how: 1) The notes (especially in the second score) seem to be vertically centered on the staff, with excessive space between them. I would like them to be left-aligned, and closely spaced. 2) I would like the opus header to appear only once, before the first score, and not twice, before each score. Help will be appreciated.
