I think that standard practice is to not write such chords, use cluster notation, or write <gis a> instead. I know about the Y shaped stems, but they are hard to mend in with the current implementation of stems and noteheads, and don't seem particularly readable. >Is there any way to achieve this effect in LilyPond? Yes: write a serious amount of C++ code to position the noteheads correctly and draw the Y in between. -- Han-Wen Nienhuys | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanwen _______________________________________________ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
