new website: draft 3

2009-06-27 Thread Graham Percival
Yo. http://percival-music.ca/blogfiles/out/lilypond-general_1.html - no, I don't think that "Advertizing" is a good name. Suggestions are desired. This chapter (or "tab") is aimed at people who don't know if they want to use lilypond or not. We stick enticements (and some warnings) in here.

Thanks. That did exactly what I needed. I had seen extra-offset referred to, but got the impression that it was considered sort of last resort and not-the-best-practice. As long as it works. I had been getting frustrated because I had done this quite easily in Finale some time ago. I've been impo

Thanks Gilles, for the response. Neither of these worked for me. Happily, I had the solution in the first place. I just had the command in the wrong place and (I think) needed to add a Context to the override. This works: I inserted \once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'outside-staff-priorit

Hi Reinhold, This is essentially what \once \override Staff.TimeSignature #'style = #'single-digit does, except that with the single-digit style the number is automatically extracted from the time signature... Wow... never seen that in the docs before!? Very cool. Thanks, Kieren. _

Hello Villum, Trying to mimic the layout of the manuscript as far as possible in the pdf I have come across a small problem: Only the very first time signature shows the ordinary 6/4. All subsequent time signatures are shown with a large number only, spanning the whole system (no /4). 1.
