chords above piano staff
Hi all
I have a piece with a written out piano intro directly followed by a
leadsheet with lyrics. The lower staff is only needed for the intro.
Now the chords appear below both staffs in the intro, but stay there,
when the leadsheet/with lyrics starts. Then the chords are between
melody and lyrics instead of above as it is the case when i have only
one staff. How can I force it to put the chords always above the piano
staff?
The layout is as follows:
\new PianoStaff
\chords { ... } % 24 bars
\new Staff = upper {
\upperIntro% 8 bars
\melody% 16 bars
}
\addlyrics { }
}
\new Staff = lower {
\lowerIntro% 8 bars
}
Thanks, Sebastian.

Hi.
The layout is as follows:
\new PianoStaff
\chords { ... } % 24 bars
\new Staff = upper {
\upperIntro% 8 bars
\melody% 16 bars
}
\addlyrics { }
}
\new Staff = lower {
\lowerIntro% 8 bars
}
Please send a minimal but *compilable* example: It's a waste of time if
someone willing to help must first fill in the blanks to have an idea of
what you already got and are not happy with.
Best,
Gilles

Sorry, I thought advanced users could imagine the output. Here we go:
\new PianoStaff
\chords { c1 g }
\new Staff = upper {
\relative c' {
c4 c c c
d d d d
}
}
\addlyrics {
\repeat unfold 4 \skip 1
la la la la
}
\new Staff = lower {
\relative c' {
c4 c c c
}
}

If you move the \chords outside the PianoStaff context, I guess
it will work as expected, i.e. something like
\score{
\chords {...}
\new PianoStaff
\new Staff = upper ...
...
}

\new Staff = upper {
\upperIntro% 8 bars

Hello.

Sometimes not so advanced users, or users with less imagination can help
too. ;-)
Here attached a modified version of your code that puts the chords above the
staff.
[The problem has something to do with the PianoStaff already instantiated
when the chord line is being defined.]

\version 2.10.10
harmony = \context ChordNames {
\chordmode {
c1 |
g |
}
}
\harmony
\new PianoStaff
\new Staff = upper {
\relative c' {
c4 c c c
d d d d
}
}
\addlyrics {
\repeat unfold 4 \skip 1
la la la la
}
\new Staff = lower {
\relative c' {
c4 c c c
}
}

Re: chords in piano staff
Thanks again, it worked perfectly, but just to go deeper in this, and to
understand better about lilypond layout, what I can do if I want to move
only the chords a bit up or down; i.e. now the chords are not perfectly centered
but they are closer to the upper staff.

By default, a PianoStaff context cannot contain a ChordNames context,
but
that's easy to modify. Just add (untested)
\layout{
\context{
\PianoStaff
\accepts ChordNames
}
}

Any suggestion?
