Multi-Column layout! I need that too. This is how I did this score (3 Columns)- http://www.twitpic.com/2pie84 1. Calculate the width (and height?) of each column; set the page size accordingly. (page width = column width) 2. Run LilyPond, output the score as PNGs. 3. Tailor PNGs. Imag

Hi List. I have a LilyPond score printing to 11X17 paper in landscape mode. Most of the result -- with staves stretching fully across the page of course -- is looking okay. But one movement isn't. It's measures, nearly a half-page wide, would to my eye be most readable if they were arranged in

Can anybody help me with fret diagrams?

I tried out my first fret diagrams just recently and I ran into a puzzling situation. Whereas in standard guitar tuning, the A major chord diagram would look like this: aFretDiagram = \markup \fret-diagram #"6-o;5-o;4-2;3-2;2-2;1-o:" And the standard A7 diagram would look like this: asevenFre

Dear community, I wanted to build the score of Mozart's quartet KV421, which I found on mutopia. Unfortunately it doesn't work, because the files are to old. Even updating with convert-ly doesn't work. Does someone know, what can be done to update these files? Thanks Stefan
