Hi.
I have three questions on ties and slurs. I'm using lilypond 1.4.6 curently. 1. I'm typesetting a piano piece, and the first chord in the right hand needs to be three and a half beats long (in 4/4 time), so I'm trying to tie a dotted half to a quarter. So the beginning of the right-hand portion of the score reads \relative c'' \sequential { < a2. c2. > ~ < a8 c8 > d8 c8 f,8 <des8 g8> <d2 aes'2> ~ <d8 aes'8> } When I compile, I get a warning message such as: No ties were created!: < a2. c2. > ~ < a8 c8 > d8 Which certainly seems to be true. This seems to be a problem associated with the beginning of the piece --- if I repeat the measure later, the ties get created. 2. I'd like to legato slur the first two two note chords in the second measure, but I don't know how. The best I've been able to do so far is: c8 f,8 <des8 g8 ) > < ) d2 aes'2> ~ <d8 aes'8> r4 3. Is there any way to tie a grace note to the note it precedes? Thanks so much for any help you can provide.
