New issue 762 by v.villenave: Ambitus engraver should be smarter about accidentals
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=762 New report from David: The ambitus engraver will, when determining the ambitus interval, pick the first enharmonic description of a note, even if a note better matching its key signature crops up later. Since the purpose of the ambitus is describing requirements for an instrument, the accidental composition of a note need not really be preserved. Therefore in the following example it would be ok to write anambitus reaching to c''' rather than bis''. I would propose that if the key signature of the ambitus engraver can place a note without accidental with the same absolute pitch as the engraved note, then it should prefer that over the actually occuring note. That should be reasonably simple to do since it does not require knowledge of the ambitus key signature while tracking the interval, but merely when the ambitus is actually typeset. \version "2.12.3" \new Voice \with {\consists "Ambitus_engraver"} { \clef treble \key c \major c'1 \key b \major bis'' \key c \major c''' } -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
