Hello LilyPonders,
I have a piece where I want the lower right-hand voice to be shifted left
whenever the chord is too crowded, but instead the default is for it to be
shifted right. The snippet below shows how I could use force-hshift on the
notes I want shifted; the second measure is the default.
The piece is fairly short so I can put in all the hshifts by hand but I'm
wondering if there is a way to tell the voice, Just left shift instead of
right shift.
\version "2.19.21"
\language "english"
forceHShift = \once \override NoteColumn.force-hshift = -1.75
highVoice = \relative {
s4 <b d>8 ( <cs e> <ds fs>4 ) |
s4 <b d?>8 ( <cs e> <ds fs>4 ) |
}
upperMiddle = \relative {
s4 \forceHShift a8 as \forceHShift c4 |
s4 a?8 as c4 |
}
lowerMiddle = \relative {
s2. * 2 |
}
lowVoice = \relative {
g2-> r4 |
g2-> r4 |
}
global = {
\key c \major
\time 3/4
}
upper = {
\global
\clef treble
<<
\new Voice { \voiceOne \highVoice }
\new Voice { \voiceTwo \upperMiddle }
>>
}
lower = {
\global
\clef bass
<<
\new Voice { \voiceThree \lowerMiddle }
\new Voice { \voiceFour \lowVoice }
>>
}
\score {
\new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff = "upper" \upper
\new Staff = "lower" \lower
>>
\layout {
\context {
\Score
\hide BarLine
\hide SpanBar
}
\context {
\Staff
\remove "Time_signature_engraver"
}
}
}
