Hi Folks! I've had a look through the samples and don't see anything directly like what I would like for a composition I am doing. On a lead sheet, the words would look like this: Refrain - two lines Verse 1 - 6 lines Refrain - two lines Verse 2 - 6 lines Refrain - two lines In the music

Hi folks, (other than Mats) I discovered the following bit of code in the comments for the user manual. I tried updating it automatically, but it didn't work. If you deal with lyrics, and think this example is worth keeping, then could you update it to work with recent LilyPond? Ideally with

Ted - Appendix C of the Users' Guide says "\" is the escape character and \n will cause a new line. If you can make this work, please post the clue. Here's a way that does work for me in v 2.4.3: tagline = \markup \column < "First line" "Second line" "Third line" >

How to Get Line Breaks in the Tagline

2005-05-25 Thread Ted Stanion
Is there a way to get a line break to appear in the tagline? I saw an archived message which implied that putting a \break in the string would do this, but it did not seem to work. I am using LilyPond version 2.4.6 under Cygwin. I've attached an example source file showing what I've tried. Ted Sta

The positioning is different for different articulations, according to normal typesetting practice (that's the intention, at least). For example, \accent, \staccato and \tenuto go into the stave, whereas \turn and \portato stay outside the stave, just to mention a few. The easiest way to break th

There's probably a misunderstanding here. The Bistream Charter fonts have nothing to do with LilyPond. In Cygwin, they are included in the package tetex-extra (both for teTeX versions 2 and 3 as far as I know). So, just rerun the installer and make sure to install the package tetex-extra. /Mat

Hi folks, I'm a 1 year cellist who decided to learn lilypond as the best way to rewrite a piece I'm learning. The original is too compact for my eyes at my (ahem) age, and I found that lilypond's output managed the job superbly. I tend to be a perfectionist, though, and wanted an accent in a par
