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.
