Hi Carlos,

I am doing a slide /glissando from a hidden grace note into a two note chord ..
What is the norm? Does the glissando needs to show sliding to both notes or one 
will suffice?


Example:   \grace { \hideNotes d,8 \glissando  }\unHideNotes <a' e'>2.  \grace { 
\hideNotes d,8 \glissando  }\unHideNotes<a' e'>2. %m1

If the slide needs to show on both notes, how do I accomplish that?

I can't comment on your first question (which version is to be preferred).

You can make your code shorter by using \once :

{
  \once \hideNotes \grace d,8 \glissando <a' e'>2.
  \once \set glissandoMap = #'((0 . 0) (0 . 1))
  \once \hideNotes d,8 \glissando  <a' e'>2.
}

And for double glissando lines, \set glissandoMap is your friend. Each pair (x . y) in the list draws a glissando from the x-th note of the first chord (in your case, just one note) to the y-th note of the second chord.
