I can work around it by replacing the partial with
skipped notes, but it would be useful to know.

Does anyone know of a neat way to tie a sharp to a flat when the two are
actually the same note? As the a-flat and g-sharp in this example:
\version "2.8.1"
\new Staff { \time 4/4 \clef treble
\relative { 2 ~ }
}
The best I have managed is this:
\version "2.8.1"
\new Staff { \time 4/4 \clef t

This is an important dilemma for many users, I think - we want to have all
the fixes and features in each new version, but find it frustrating when
music produced in earlier versions needs time-consuming manual editing to
upgrade.
Can I suggest a compromise?

Yes you can. I've just tried it.

I use this sort of construction (note-shorter-than-it-looks + hidden note)
quite a lot for tweaks, it's very handy.

Here you go then - my attempt at a structured version of your music:
%% start here
\version "2.8.1"
#(set-global-staff-size 17.17)
\paper {
#(define dump-extents #t)
indent = 0\mm
linewidth = 160\mm - 2.0 * 0.4\in
ragged-right = ##f
ragged-bottom = ##t
Yes, I see your point.
What I meant, though, was that you cannot attach the markup *directly* to a
variable, e.g. as
\gDown^\markup{ .. }
at least, I don't think you can. It didn't work for me with the \downbow
anyway.

There are quite a few ways in which you could make your life easier here, I
think.
1. You should be able to use variables for chords - you didn't put the
contents of Chords.ly in your email so I can't see why it didn't work; a
definition like this works ok:
gDown = { 4 \downbow }
Once the chor
Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm afraid I couldn't justify the expenditure
for what is really only a minor inconvenience. I had just been wondering if
there was an existing setting that I had missed which would cover this.

Yes, it is. Try this:
\version "2.8.1"
\score {
\new ChoirStaff \with { followVoice = ##t } <<
\new Staff = "tenor" {
a''4 b'' c'' d''
\voiceOne a''4 b'' c'' d'' \oneVoice
a''4 b'' c'' d''
tter way?
I've tried using something like \override Arpeggio #'length = #'4.0. This
does not generate an error but it has no effect.

I still can't work out how to make the squiggle longer, though.

The arpeggio squiggle on the chord in the snippet below is really short:
\version "2.8.1"
\score { 4\arpeggio }
I presume this is intentional and not a bug, but is there any way I can make
the arpeggio longer without an ugly tweak (such as adding another note to
the chord and then hiding it)?
I have installed Lilypond at D:\Colin\lilypond\ so for convert-ly I use this:

If you use LilyTools for jEdit you can run convert-ly from the Lilypond
toolbar and menu. It works fine for me on XP and does not depend on Cygwin;
it also works with the version of Python that comes with Lilypond
I find jEdit with LilyTools great for editing Lilypond files. It has syntax

be sure.
in principle, though, this approach ought to work.

One possibility would be to output the score in SVG format. There is filter
available which allows you to open SVG files in OpenOffice Draw. I haven't
tried this myself (yet).

This works for me. Notes in my previous email about fonts and tweaking apply here too.

None, really - I confess I hadn't learnt how to use extra-offset and wasn't
aware that you could use it to get the text to appear overlaid on the staff.
The Postscript comes into its own when adding a piece of text in the normal
way would push other objects out of the way (as with a bracket spann

The size of the text is determined by the '2' before scalefont.

You could use embedded Postscript. It may take a while to get the hang of it
(especially if you have not used Postscript before) but it is very powerful
and it is invisible to Lilypond, so you can put objects anywhere and
Lilypond will not move things around to avoid them. For example, I have

You can use durations like 1*2 for lengths greater than a minim.
For example:

\new Lyrics \lyricmode { one1*2 two1 three }

I think the problem is with the order in which you nest things -
<< chordsA musicA >> + << chordsB musicB
>>. If you do << { chordsA chordsB } { musicA musicB
} >> it works.
Like this (in version 2.8):

\include "english.ly"
partA = {

I am using 2.6.1 in Windows, and I have noticed that you need to refer
