Sure! In the latest 2.5.xx versions, you can do \displayMusic{\hideNotes}, However, it's easier to read the files where the macros are defined, directly. See /usr/share/lilypond/2.4.x/ly/property-init.ly or wherever the files are installed on your machine. /Mats Fairchild wrote: Is there a way

Using the part combiner for hymns

Hi. I'm working on a public-domain hymnal project. I'd like to get the part combiner to follow some stemming conventions that are common in hymnals: - When the voices are in unison, there should be two stems. - When the voices are a second apart (i.e. adjacent notes), there should be two stems.
