Chord names

Good morning. How do you create a chord name that's a minor sus? Example: \version "2.16.2" chordNames = \chordmode { \global e4.:m e:m/d a:m a:m d d:7 g2. I want the first a:m chord to be an a-minor sus. How do I make that happen? "a:m:sus" and "a:msus" and "a:m/sus" don't work. Will

Apply \editionMod to grace note

Hi edition-engraver users, is there a way to apply an \editionMod to a grace note or acciaccatura? What would be the proper "moment" of that? Urs ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org

Re: Apply \editionMod to grace note

Hi there, late to the party ;) Yes, the edition-engraver waits for a moment in time! In fact all notations like 1/4 are just shortcuts, which are directly converted to a ly:make-moment statement. And of course it also accepts direct input of a moment. So, as you already noticed, you can address a

Re: Chord names

> But LilyPond's chord-naming names actually played chord notes, not > anticipated chords. I agree - it's not a good idea to confuse the chord with the underlying scale. If you want a minor chord sounding, then use one; you can *add* a 4th (or better 11th) to that. Best, Robert > > -- >

Hi Kieren, the context-id thing is in my lalily-version. There have been issues, which prevented it from appearing in openLilyLib. This relative moment feature would be a thing, I also really like to have/implement. I don't typeset that much polymetric pieces, but it would be very helpful ... I
