Flatten a tie without hardcoding control points?

2012-04-20 Thread James Harkins
Maybe a simple question: Is there a way to flatten the curve of a tie that is as easy as overriding "ratio" for slurs? I found "control-points" and this does change the tie's shape. But, I don't need to modify the x-extent, only the y-extent. It looks to me as if overriding the control points m

\break not working properly

2012-04-20 Thread MING TSANG
Sorry about this long snippet.  The \break seems not working all the times.  I am puzzled - if I don't use both "\include and its content" the \break works as intended. There must have some coding inside the \include that make the \break not behave as intended.  Help appreciated. % { \version "
