Hello everybody, I would like to use Schoenberg’s original symbol for sprechgesang… Specifically, the x on the stem you find in the score of Pierrot Lunaire. I found a snippet in the forum, which is:
sp = { \override Voice.Stem #'stencil = #(lambda (grob) (ly:stencil-combine-at-edge (ly:stem::print grob) 1 (ly:grob-property grob 'direction) (ly:text-interface::print grob) -3 0)) \override Voice.Stem #'text = \markup { \hspace #-1.075 \teeny \musicglyph #"noteheads.s2cross" } } But…it doesn’t seem to work. I receive the following message of error: Wrong number of arguments to ly:stencil-combine-at-edge Why is that? As far as I can understand the number of arguments is fine! But I am still a noob in Lilypond, so… Thank you for all the help! Massimiliano
