I'm looking into creating .ly lead sheets for many of the songs on one of my sites, I've got custom automation that rips mp3s and oggs from master wav files, so I'd like to throw the lilypond rendering step into the mix, but currently running Lilypond 2.2 on Windows (cygwin) automatically tries to

Re: Tweaked cross-staff glissando

2004-09-23 Thread Mats Bengtsson
One solution is to make the glissando to an invisible note just before the bar line. The Glissando object also has a property called gap, but that applies to both ends of the line. /Mats Antti Kaihola wrote: Hi LilyPonders, On a piano staff, I need a glissando line from a quarter note on last be

Did you try to set all the three properties you mentioned at the same time? Then you'll see the difference. Also, you may want to reduce the damping of the beam slope: \include "deutsch.ly" \score { \context Staff \notes \transpose c' c' { \relative c'' { \key c \major << { \shift

Hi Mats, The commands you suggest run OK, and I get a nice ps document. So what else can there be wrong? Sincerely, Johan _ To me it looks like you have some general problem with the teTeX package, rather then a LilyPond specific problem. Try to run the following commands: latex sample2

Unless you were extremely unlucky to choose a download server that was just in the process of updating, you should certainly see the "Publishing" category, just as you can see in the screen shot. Just try to rerun setup.exe once more, I'm sure it will work. /Mats Cox, Roger wrote: Hello, After
