I presume you don't like the fact that the accidentals are within the ledger lines, rather like they are in staff lines. What would you want? -- Phil Holmes - Original Message - From: Jeffrey Trevino To: lilypond-user Sent: Friday, January 25, 2013 4:47 AM Subject: ledger

Scripts and Slurs

2013-01-25 Thread Noeck
Hi, if I change the outside-staff-priority of a Script, the Slur is still placed as if the Scripts would be inside, even if there is more space now. Is that on purpose? (I know that the staccato is not placed outside the slurs. But if I wanted to, shouldn't it be printed nicely anyways?) { c'-.

Hi Jon, which program produces such an output? I can only guess what could be inteded with that code, because it is strange in several ways. To learn LilyPond it is better not to start with automatically generated code like this! A good start ist the learning manual from the beginning. http://www.

Just to add this: Assuming, you program did all that settings and they are not mandatory for you, here is an easier code, which does almost the same as yours using LilyPonds defaults. It is much shorter and much more readable: \version "2.10.10" \header { title = "New Arrangement" } Chords =

I have finally tried out the two additional suggestions.

This method works (with the older syntax for me, as I have version 2.16.1), so it would be an acceptable solution; thanks for explaining how it can be done. The only shortcoming is that I must put in empty bars because the inserted ossia part doesn't start at the beginning of the line. But maybe on

Hi there, Thanks for your responses. I'll make due with the current span stem engraver, but I think that it would be easier to extend the functionality of the \change Staff = "staffName" paradigm to do this more elegantly in future versions. cheers, Jeff On Fri, Jan 25, 2013 at 3:26 AM, Phil Hol
