Hi. I'm relatively new to Lilypond. I experimented with it and explored the Fine Manual quite extensively. I'm qorking now on a Project Gutenberg project, which means the .pdf output needs to resemble the Original Score as closely as possible.
I have three questions. 1) Can I hide, from the pdf output, the time signature at the beginning of a score? (I've done the 2nd line of notes as a separate score, because it has an additional Voice & Lyrics staff not existing in the the 1st line.) Alternatively, can I have the 1st line of notes in a score having only Piano staves, and the following lines with an additional Voice & Lyrics staff, in the same score? 2) How can I add parentheses around notes? (Look at the scanned image -- link below -- to see what I mean. It's the two connected 16ths at the end of the 2nd line, the 1st one with lyrics.) 3) How do I coax Lilypond into displaying the extra word "There" at the end of the 2nd (middle) Lyrics line of that same music line? The Voice staff has a polyphony, i.e. an 8th rest on top and two connected 16ths beneath. You can look at a scanned image of the Original Score at http://www.pgdp.net/c/tools/project_manager/displayimage.php?project=project ID432e074b4d781&imagefile=066.png. You can look at the part of it I so far managed to put into .ly at http://www.pgdp.net/c/tools/project_manager/downloadproofed.php?project=proj ectID432e074b4d781&image=066.png&round_num=3 Any suggestions will be welcome. - Nov _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
