intractable collision of arpeggio and rest

2013-05-22 Thread Tom Cloyd
Running Lilypond 2.16.0 - 1. In the following 8 bar snippet, I am arpeggiating across the middle and upper voices. The arpeggio is colliding with the rest that's in the middle voice. I've tried about 9 ways and I cannot get the arpeggio in the right place. It needs to make room for that rest.

I'm not in a position to test this at the moment, but just for confirmation, will this work with an arbitrary number of tagged syllables through a Lyrics context? ex: tagIt = \once \override Lyrics.LyricText #'tagged = ##t \new Lyrics \lyricsto A { \tagIt This is the first phrase in my

David, Thanks. Hardly worth the effort! I think I'll just try to ignore my allergy to leading zeroes in dates. Or not do any engraving 1-9 of the month. I'm no LISP expert, apart from knowing that it stands for Lots of Irritating Surplus Parentheses. Best regards, Peter

Well, comparing the lengths of strings is a bit shortsighted, as all four-letter words don't occupy the same space... Revised to work with stencil sizes, as David Kastrup suggests earlier in this thread. Argh. lyrics-alignment2.ly Description: Binary data
