Hello, I started this week with Lilypond and it works great. I'm only having a problem with grouping rests. This is the code so far: \version 2.11.36 \header{ title = Idylle composer = Bald WYNTIN poet = Altsax } { \key g \major \time 3/4 b'4 (a' d'' b'2.) b'4 (a' e'' b'2.) b'4 (a' e'' b'

Key signature in ossia?

How can I add a key signature to an ossia stave? In the example below, I get an error if I uncomment either of the key signature lines in the ossia staff. %=== \version 2.12.2 \new Staff = main \relative c'' { \key e \minor c4 b d c

How do you normally specify the key signature for a stave? Certainly not within a \with{...}, right? Just insert the \key e \minor before the first note: ... \new Staff \with { ... } { \key e \minor e4 d f e } ... /Mats Nick Payne wrote: How can I add a

How can I let the ambitus engraver ignore the key signature?

Hi, the following is an excerpt from a systematic listing of accordion chords with different ambitus. The ambitus engraver should not heed the first (arbitrary) key signature but rather engrave as though we were in c major. How do I do that? \include deutsch.ly \new Voice \with {\consists

Problem with fingering

Hello, let's modify slightly a snippet from NR 1.7.1, section Fingering Instructions: \relative c' { \set fingeringOrientations = #'(left) c-1 d-2 a'-54 \set fingeringOrientations = #'(down) c-1 d-2 a'-54 \set fingeringOrientations = #'(down right up) c-1 d-2 a'-54 \set

This is a problem for me as well. I prefer my fingerings to the left of notes and chords in the score (for guitar music) and when notating chords that contain seconds, I'm forced to choose which notes to indicate fingerings for in order to avoid collisions. Another related problem: In chords

Need information about Lyric spacing in Lilypond

I've recently switched my main computer from Windows to Ubuntu Linux. Before this change, I was using Sibelius quite a bit for hymnbook work. I am contemplating a change to Lilypond, but before I invest large amounts of time learning it, I was just hoping that a few experts who have used the

As an aside, if you absolutely need Sibelius, I've had success running Sibelius 2 on Ubuntu 8.04 under Wine. Making a .pdf might be tricky, but I haven't fully investigated it. Good luck! Dave fzimmerman wrote: I've recently switched my main computer from Windows to Ubuntu Linux. Before

Dave, Thanks for the quick reply. I have two other computers in the house that have Windows on them (I run a home-based computer support business), so I can use Sibelius on them if I have to...but I would rather switch to Lilypond. By the way, my download link didn't seem to transfer properly.

A further problem (seems to me to qualify as a bug) is that if I have two adjacent notes in a chord, I can't place one fingering indication to the left and the other to the right. Up/down works ok, but left/right or right/left places both indications on the right: %==
