In this respact, Lilypond is as clever as any musician - if there is no dynamic sign, from which loudness should one start the decrescendo?

James Harkins jamshark70 at gmail.com writes: it's impossible to calculate without both the starting and ending dynamic. Or has the logic been improved so that ending a decrescendo with \! now guesses an ending dynamic that is somewhat softer by some invisibly determined amount? Heikki posted some improvements here http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2012-07/msg00441.html which were included in version 2.16 So LilyPond does guess sometimes. His patch gives warnings when he thought it might be surprising LilyPond made a guess, but maybe the confusion caused by the warning is more trouble than the help. Fabio, LilyPond starts your decrescendo in the middle of the dynamic range. The warning is only to tell you that LilyPond made a guess about the starting dynamic. If you are happy with the results, you need do nothing about the warning. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
