Hello everybody. My recent message didn't get any replies so I'm posting it again just in case.
I'm notating some four-part harmony for organ manuals that sometimes has optional small bass notes for the pedals. In one spot, I'm having trouble stopping Lilypond from merging the heads of a half-note G in the upper voice with a quarter-note G in the lower voice when there are small notes added in the bass part. Please see the code and pdf. What I want is to get the quarter note positioned to the right of the half note (as in the top example), but with the large and small quarter-notes vertically aligned. Any ideas on how to achieve this? Regards, Brent. \version "2.18.2" rightOne = \relative c'' { \voiceOne b2 } rightTwo = \relative c' { d2 } leftOne = \relative c' { \clef bass g2 } leftTwo = \relative c { g'4 e \bar "|." } \score { \header { piece = \markup \bold \underline \large "desired position of quarter notes" } \new PianoStaff << \new Staff = "right" << \rightOne \\ \rightTwo >> \new Staff = "left" << \leftOne \\ \leftTwo >> >> } rightOneII = \relative c'' { \voiceOne b2 } rightTwoII = \relative c' { d2 } leftOneII = \relative c' { \clef bass g2 } leftTwoII = \relative c { \override Stem.length = 4.6 <<\voiceOne {\stemDown g'4 e } \new Voice {\voiceTwo \teeny g, e} >> \bar "|." } \score { \header { piece = \markup \bold \underline \large "when I add the small notes" } \new PianoStaff << \new Staff = "right" << \rightOneII \\ \rightTwoII >> \new Staff = "left" << \leftOneII \\ \leftTwoII >> >> }
