Thank you!! So I did that but then the next measure is presenting a mistake… However I realized I Was not using \grace
So it seems this worked!! Thank you so much! { \once \set glissandoMap = #'((0 . 0) (1 . 1)) \once \hideNotes \grace <d, g >8 \glissando <a' e'>2. \once \set glissandoMap = #'((0 . 0) (1 . 1)) \once \hideNotes \grace <d, g >8 \glissando <a' e'>2. } %m1 > On Sep 10, 2021, at 15:58, Lukas-Fabian Moser <l...@gmx.de> wrote: > > Hi Carlos, > > (Please keep the list in CC, so everybody can participate.) > > Am 10.09.21 um 22:55 schrieb Carlos Martinez: >> Hi!
