Thanks a lot, David. It works as advertised. I do think I read about this somewhere in the manuals, but I couldn't find it.
This uses really involved code to simulate something that does not > really map well to LilyPond's internals so it may interfere with other > tricky code. > I'm pretty sure that I'm not at the level of skill to be writing other tricky code, so no problem :-) For the benefit of anyone on the list who might find this useful, here's the simple function I'm using this in. It adds falling gliss lines *à la* sliding falls commonly notated in rock guitar music, and it's probably not a good implementation, but it works as I'd like it to: fall = #(define-music-function (input) (ly:music?) (make-relative (input) input #{ \afterGrace 16/16 << $input <>\glissando >> \transpose c g, { \once \omit Flag \once \override Stem.length = #0 \once \override NoteHead.font-size = #-50 \once \hideNotes $input } #})) Thanks, Randy
