It's fine having the language bar down at the bottom of a docs page. But in the bigpage case you've probably done a lot of reading before you reach it, and wish you had seen it earlier. So I suggest something like bighead.png: I Put an additional language bar at the top of bigpages. Che

This is a good suggestion, but be sure that what you say is "fingering orientation" needs a chord construct, not just "fingering." One can also see examples of successful fingering orientations with single notes by clicking on the inspirational header. I definitely used some in that. I reali

Trevor I did have a look at the manual section on direction and placement (http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.11/Documentation/user/lilypond/Direction-and-pla cement#Direction-and-placement), but didn't find what I was after. I eventually found the needed instructions by doing a google search of the lilyp

Hi Julian, How can I make the snare share a stem with either bassdrum or hihat? Sounds to me like you want them in a chord, i.e., HTH! Kieren. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-use

Hallo! I'm currently trying to write a drum pattern which requires something I could not find in the Documentation or Tips and Tricks. Instead of only two notes at the same time, there have to be three (bd, sn, hh). I tried to extend the example using \voiceThree (for sn) after \voiceOne (hh)

I thought I had put a warning about this issue in the fretted strings section but perhaps I was just dreaming it. I definitely remember struggling with it until I figured it out, but maybe I didn't get to put a warning because the topic of "fingering" in general is dealt with outside of the fr

Hi, for this example you have to create both a Staff and a Voice context and use associatedVoice instead of lyricsto. I don't if there is another way. \new Staff = "s" \new Voice = "v" { .your music. } \new Lyrics \with { alignAboveContext = "s" } { \set associatedVoice = "v" .y

The contexts are normally printed in the order in which they are defined, so simply moving the \new Lyrics command for the sopranos so it comes before the \new Staff command for the joint soprano/alto staff should do it. See the SATB vocal score template in the Notation Reference section A.4.1.

Nick d_3 puts fingering below the staff, d^3 above the staff and d-3 leaves LilyPond to choose. The section in the manual which you mention says "Fingering instructions may be manually placed above or below the staff, see Direction and placement" and that section tells you how. The \finger

Thanks, that fixes it. But according to the documentation, the single note chordal construction is only needed for string indications, not for fingering (http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.11/Documentation/user/lilypond/Inside-the-staff# Fingering-instructions). So it looks like you can show fingering with
