Hello all. I've been fiddling with Lilypond for a few weeks now. Today, for the first time I started using it to actually typset some music that people will look at.
I think I've run into a bug, or maybe something I don't understand. According to the Norton Manual of Music Notation a tremolo, so called 'fingered', is written as 2 notes and the duration of the trmolo is equal to the duration of _one_ of those notes. The code below does almost what I need. My comments are included. Why can't I fit those 2 tremolos in the same (3/4) measure? I need a half note tremolo and quarter note within the same measure. \header { title = "Tremolo" } \score { \notes\relative c' { \time 3/4 \repeat tremolo 8 {c16 e} % if my understanding is correct trmolo 8 means 3 beams. % 4 = 2beams, however, I noticed that the value of the note seems to be growing? how do I come up with the proper values? % c16 makes it a half note % d32 quarter ? and so on? \repeat tremolo 8 {d32 f} } } oh, this is lilypond 1.6.4 (compiled from sources) on powerpc-unknown, debian woody 2.4.18.
