A lovely segno sign

2018-03-01 Thread Andrew Bernard
In the first edition of the Chopin Mazurkas Op. 7, there is a lovely segno symbol used. Has anybody made anything like this? The text font in this edition is also lovely - I wonder if they were letter punch forms? See attached image. The scan is from IMSLP. I'm not trying to recreate this editio

I didn't know about \default or the dot/comma separated number/symbol lists! I can see those being useful in some circumstances.

Hello Michael, it works if you add \etc to the variable (in lily-dev 2.19.x IIRC): smNote = \tweak font-size #-2 \etc That way smNote becomes a music-function that takes the note as argument and the tweak is applied. If you are using 2.18 you have to create the function like this: smNote = #(de

Hi Craig, you remind me to rethink wording/naming of the different identifiers! In your example you point on two different ID-types. With \addEdition you add one target-ID to the current compilation. You can add multiple targets like fullscore, global-mods, original-page-breaks at once. With
