RE: convert from absolute to relative

I shall eagerly await the development of a script that will work in the reverse direction. When I edit scores prepared by others (often in relative mode) from the Mutopia Project, I often make changes that disturb the octavation, and it's time consuming to go back and fix. Typically this happens

Backwards compatibility: \compressMusic, \scaleDurations, WHY WHY WHY

You have absolutely no idea how much chaos things like this cause for people who are using Lilypond for major projects. You have absolutely no idea how much of a problem this sort of thing is for archives like Mutopia. You have no idea how the lack of input grammar stability undermines efforts

Even and odd page margins

Is there any way to get a different left margin on even and odd pages? I'm trying to make room for the binding without giving up any space on the outside of the leaf. Thanks Steve ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu

Spacing around bar lines in 2.11.38

I'm finding that there isn't enough space around bar lines. In some cases ledger lines are touching the bar lines. Is this a known bug? Is there a way to adjust the space a barline takes up? Steve ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.or

Beaming question

4/4 time. Lilypond 2.11.33. I'm trying to get the autobeaming behavior to match an existing style where: * Up to four eighth notes can be beamed together (subject to the usual limitations on ending beat) * But, when sixteen notes share the beam with eighth notes, beams may not cross beats. Anot

Augmentation dot on polyphonic notes a second apart

I'm running 2.11.38. In reviewing the output, I see that in situations where the score contains polyphonic voices, stems in opposing directions, and the upper voice but not the lower has an augmentation dot, the placement of the dot in the output is ambiguous. The source scores I have add horizon

Insufficent space around bar lines

I'm reducing the spacing-increment to #0.80 to get a tightly spaced score. The notes are spaced to my liking except that they crowd the barlines. Is there a way to give the barlines more space? Steve ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.

Thematic index

\RemoveEmptyStaffContext deleting half a GrandStaff

I'm typesetting some organ scores which will be open content upon completion. As with most organ scores, there is a GrandStaff, for the hands, and a staff for the feet. The desired engraving technique is to remove the staff for the feet when it carries no notes. It is important to use a GrandSta
