Hi Pavel,
2012/1/7 Pavel Roskin <pro...@gnu.org>:
I believe it would be nice to have support for cross-staff chords.
Perhaps it could be done as another snippet. I'm a beginner in Scheme
and Lilypond, so it takes me quite a lot of effort. I'll appreciate
some help.
I envision having a Scheme function that would apply to some notes in
the chord:
<g c g,\crossStaff>
I wish that i could help you doing this, but it's beyond my knowledge.
I have a suggestion for the future syntax, though - i think it would
be best to define cross-staff chords like cross-staff voices, i.e. use
\change Staff = StaffName inside chord construct:
<g c \change Staff = LeftHand g,>
I actually tried it and it didn't work. I think implementing this
approach in Scheme may be harder, as I would need to redefine \change
(or catch for staff change events or something as hairy as that)
rather than write a new function.
You may consider writing a brief feature request that would be added
to our tracker (http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/list), so
that this issue doesn't get lost.
(send the feature request to bug-lilypond)
I will. We have a good reason to want cross-staff chords rather than
a fragile imitation that can only be held together by hacks involving
negative padding :)
