Hi all, I rememeber reading about a change to \relative. I opened the news section of the docs and this is what I saw.
I just can't make heads or tails out of it, could someone explain this for me?? Also if this is a new way of using \relative it seems that the old way is still in the docs.... ------------------------------------------------- The definition of \relative has been simplified. Octaves are now always propagated in the order that music is entered. In the following example, PRE \repeat "unfold" 3 BODY \alternative { ALT1 ALT2 } POST the octave of BODY is based on PRE, the starting octave of ALT1 on BODY, the starting octave of ALT2 on ALT1, and the starting octave of POST on ALT2. The same mechanism is used for all other music expressions, except the chord. Backwards compatibility is retained through a special program option, which is set through #(ly:set-option 'old-relative) ------------------------------------------------------- Thanks Aaron _______________________________________________ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
