Hi Mark Can you see the .png image of what i typeset?
If not, can you submit an image of what you got? In my example, there is only one "chord". It has 5 notes in it, (c e g c e) which are spread out between two separate VOICES. Voice 1 only has the highest "e". Voice 2 has the other 4 notes <c' e g c> They are all whole notes, so they have the same "duration". What i am trying to do is to extend the arpeggio line upward so it reaches the highest "e", like the following .png: [cid:9f6b8c41-5370-4b49-b086-098bed6e3801] ________________________________ From: Mark Stephen Mrotek <carsonm...@ca.rr.com> Sent: Sunday, August 29, 2021 10:34 PM To: Dirck Nagy <dn...@uwlax.edu>; lilypond-user@gnu.org <lilypond-user@gnu.org> Subject: RE: Arpeggios across notes in different voices Dirck I copied and pasted the code in the body of your e-mail.

The LilyPond file i submitted should look like this: only one chord.

I have tried using this: { \consists "Span_arpeggio_engraver" } and this: \set Staff.connectArpeggios = ##t << { <e' g>4\arpeggio <d f> <d f>2 } \\ { <d, f>2\arpeggio <g b>2 } >> as given in Reference 1.3.3, but I cannot make it work. I understand the work-around for this example would be to notate all notes in a single voice, but i have other situations where this can not be done. If anyone has time, could someone add the proper sequence & syntax to my example, please? I think i could figure it out from there. Thank you all so much!
