Avoiding collisions between voices?

2006-09-19 Thread Kilian A. Foth
verriding the force-hshift for the g sharp has no effect. Is that because the d and the g sharp are in different voices? How do I make them aware of each other? Alternatively, how does one override a beam to be shorter at one end? -- Kilian A. Foth Theodorstieg 6 D-22761 Hamburg 040 - 85

Making a quarter note look like a half note?

2005-08-29 Thread Kilian A. Foth
Hello world, I need to create a tie that stops in the middle of a bar (the final note of a piece should carry a tie to nowhere to indicate `laissez vibrer'). Tying to an invisible grace note does not work -- it would create an additional bar. I reckon I can fill the 2/4 bar with a quarter note an

Fingering both above and below chord

2005-03-14 Thread Kilian A. Foth
Hello list, I want to set fingerings above and below a massive chord to indicate that the pianist should `borrow' the left thumb to play the lowest note of the middle chord. (Yes, I do want the numbers to piled on top of each other. No, I don't care about wasting vertical space.) So I write \re
