Robert,
Might it be the sostentuto pedal? http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/piano Mark From: lilypond-user [mailto:lilypond-user-bounces+carsonmark=ca.rr....@gnu.org] On Behalf Of Robert Blackstone Sent: Saturday, December 21, 2019 3:33 AM To: Robin Bannister <r...@dabble.ch> Cc: Lilypond-User Mailing List <lilypond-user@gnu.org> Subject: Notes or chords sustained with a pedal Hi Robin, I tried some of the procedures I found on https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2019-05/msg00202.html, the thread you advised me to look at but they did not help me very much. So I tried to develop some trick or tweak without having to program things with scheme, with which I have no experience at all. Anyway, I found something that gave me a result, not quite identical to what I wanted to get, but good enough for me and probably sufficiently clear for a pianist. See the attached screenshot. Best regards, Robert
