Re: Still struggling to understand Lilypond 2.23.10 segno repeats

HI Jean; As always, thank you very much for this help. I saw the documentation that you pointed out already, but I just couldn't seem to grasp how to apply it to my situation. Sometimes I think the documentation is too "MWE" :-) I will study this and try to understand it to the point

Re: Ties between voices

Gosh. There's no 'smell'. In piano music that has polyphony it is very common, and indeed necessary  to tie across voices. Dorico enables it with ease (and if it did not make sense, I can assure you Dorico which is heavily rule bound would not allow it). Lilypond cannot do it natively. This is

Re: Ties between voices

This is a good question, Stephan. I think it can be explained that when talking about keyboard music, even though there are abstract ideas of things like melody from playing one note after the previous, and other things such as chords, engraving techniques such as including many noteheads on

Re: Ties between voices

Hi all I'm neither a professional engraver nor composer. But I've already tried to copy scores for my own use. That's where I got in touch with many "creative" engraving situations. One might ask how one could engrave something a manual engraver did 100 years ago. And then we have this
