Re: lilypond-user Digest, Vol 139, Issue 68
I frequently need do something like: c \tweak font-size #-2 c' in order to show that one of the two notes is preferred, but the other one is acceptable. The problem is that the -2 in the \tweak command is an absolute value, i.e., it is not relative to the fontSize being used. If the fontSize were -3, e.g., then the smaller note would actually be bigger than the preferred one. What I would like to do is substitute for the -2 the value fontSize-2. Is this possible? If so,how? ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Can you please use more descriptive subject lines? You don't even refer to a previous posting.

Hi,

Is this possible? If so,how?
\version 2.18.2
mySize = -3
\relative c'' {
\once\set fontSize = \mySize
c \tweak font-size #(- mySize 2) c'
}

It would be nice, yes, but certain properties can't be set to a procedure.
Compare:
\version 2.19.10
{
\override NoteHead.font-size = 5
c''4
}
{
\override NoteHead.font-size = #(lambda (grob) 5)
c''4
}
The second has no effect.

Huh, I remember something like that. At some point of time, we probably
should see whether it is possible to do something about that. But it
was sort of non-trivial if I remember correctly.
