I've played around with the \partcombine function but I haven't found
a way to achieve the result I'm looking for. I'd like to combine two
parts with one as the upper voice and the other as the lower such
that the distinction is clear in the final result. This seems to be a
common style for
As I indicated in a previous message, I'm using a script to give me
shortcuts for \melisma and \melismaEnd that also turn on automatic
beaming during the melisma. This uncovered a bug where \autoBeamOff
doesn't take effect until after the current group of beamed notes
finishes, so something like:
This looks like a bug to me:
\version 2.2.2
\score {
\notes \relative c'' { \autoBeamOn c8 b \autoBeamOff a c r2 }
\paper { raggedright = ##t }
}
The two notes following the \autoBeamOff are beamed together with the
two notes before it. It seems that the autoBeam properties only kick
in for
I'm setting vocal music, and I've noticed that beaming seems to follow
normal rules within a melisma. I normally turn off autobeaming for
vocal lines, but within a long melisma the conventions on old scores
seems to be to follow normal beaming conventions, so I frequently end
up with sections
Thanks for the tip. What I ended up doing was writing a script to
introduce a new syntax. I find \melisma ... \melismaEnd quite
cumbersome so I now use [[ to start a melisma and ]] to end it. The
Makefile runs it through a simple perl script to convert foo[[ into
\autoBeamOn foo\melisma and ]]
I'm using the cygwin version of Lilypond 2.2.5 and noticed that tempo
markings seem to have gone away since 2.2.2. An unchanged source file
that included:
\tempo 4=58
printed note=58 using 2.2.2 and nothing under 2.2.5. I ran the file
through convert-ly in case anything had changed in the
I've noticed a problem with slurs and grace notes:
\version 2.2.5
\score {
\notes { \appoggiatura f''8 d''[ \appoggiatura f''8 d''] }
\paper { raggedright=##t }
}
In this example, the slur on the first grace note is printed correctly
but the slur on the second grace note is printed down

I'm a bit confused about how to use repeats with lyrics. I've

and points to part of the repeat statement in the lyrics:

Anyone know of a way to include a note in the meter line of the
header? For example:
\header {
title = Old MacDonald Had a Farm
meter = ** = 60
}
only with ** replaced by a quarter note.
Thanks,

Hi,
I'm not positive about your specific needs, but generally some
combination of the Unix utilities psbook and psnup will do the
kind of layouts you describe. You create a normal postscript file
then use psbook to rearrange the page order, then use psnup to put
2, 4, or 8 pages onto 1 page.
r1. (or r4*6) will give you a dotted whole rest, R1. (or R4*6) will
give you a whole measure rest (no dot) and both will be the right
duration.

I see two problems with extender lines which I believe are bugs:
1. They start too soon, overlapping text (particularly noticable
with punctuation).
2. When they end at a rest or the end of the piece, a warning is

I'm setting the full score for the first movement of Bach's St.

I'm using Lilypond 2.0.1 and having trouble getting lyrics to line
up properly. They are finding the right notes, but they tend to be
a bit off to the left or right. They end up overlapping bar lines
and melisma lines and they are a bit hard to follow in some places.
