Hi, for years I'm sorely missing an accidental style for contemporary music, which I always use and which is quite common among contemporary composers in my experience. At the moment it requires quite some extra work in every score implementing the accidentals explicitely although its behaviour can be defined precisely.
The style I'm looking for always prints accidentals on every note except for naturals which are only written in cancellation cases at the first occurence (also across octaves and across one barline). I'm not sure how to go about it. Reading the source it seems feasible to do although I don't understand all of the code (yet). If it's easy for any of the developers to accompish I'd be very grateful for that. Otherwise I'd be interested whether there is a way to do it within a score file using some function or whether I should go ahead and try to submit a patch for the sources (and whether you think it's worthwile to integrate into lilypond). My suggestion for the name of this style would be "contemporary" and I'd be glad to submit the information for the docs. Yours, Orm _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
