Multiple staffs for a div. section

I am probably missing something fundamental in my LilyPond knowledge that would help with the following question, but I'm not sure what it is, and I'm having a lot more difficulty than normal figuring out what to look for in the manual. Anyway, the piece starts off in unison, then has a div. secti

Gary, You need to uncomment one of the commented lines: \context FretBoards % you can use the \with syntax by uncommenting the next line % \with {predefinedDiagramTable = \swing-fretboard-table} Or % or you can use the \set format by uncommenting the next line %\set predef

Thank you for the quick response. Regarding the learning part. I'm impressed by the depth of the documentation and especially all the snippets/sample code. What I know about me is that reading an entire manual without playing with the code at each step doesn't w

I'm a complete Lilypond neophyte, so please excuse me if I'm missing the basics. I am learning to play rhythm to jazz standards. A friend is an expert on voicings used in big band and swing settings, and none of these are in the predefined fretboard table. After some reading, what makes sense to

Re: Moving tuplet brackets

In this case, I'm not sure what Harm did to ensure horizontal position of tuplet brackets. In the following solution, I'm doing a bit of a hack: I ask LilyPond to place the tuplet bracket outside everything else (that's the value of outside-staff-priority), and then I force them to be hori

Re: Moving tuplet brackets

I can’t tell for sure without seeing the code, but I think you may not need very advanced code to force the brackets horizontal in your case, and that something like this is what you’re after: \version "2.22.1" \fixed c'' { \override TupletBracket.direction = #UP \override Tuple
