Subject: Tying only one note of a chord?
To: lilypond-user <lilypond-user@gnu.org>
Hi,
Is it possible to tie only one note of a chord? This snippet using the
tie-configuration property of the TieColumn is basically what I'm
looking for, except that the tie prints three times, giving too heavy
a weight.
%%% BEGIN %%%
\version "2.9.13"
\new Staff {
<
c'
e'
g'
>4 ~
\once \override TieColumn #'tie-configuration = #'((-4 . -1) (-4 .
-1) (-4 . -1))
<
c'
e'
g'
>4
}
%%% END %%%
Is there a way to say explicitly "tie only the e in the chord"?
Trevor
I would split the chord into two voices:
\new Staff {
<< { g'4~ } \\ { <c' e'>4 } >>
<< { g'4 } \\ { <c' e'>4 } >>
}
Of course, this will mean you have stems up and down (and setting stem
directions will give 'clashing note columns' errors). If you need/want
to keep the chord in one voice and still tie the g, you could hide notes
with:
%%% once-hide-note
ohn = {
\once\override NoteHead #'transparent = ##t
\once\override Stem #'transparent = ##t
\once\override Dots #'transparent = ##t
\once\override Beam #'transparent = ##t
\once\override Rest #'transparent = ##t
}
\new Staff {
<< { <c' e' g'>4 } \\ { \ohn g'4~ } >>
<< { <c' e' g'>4 } \\ { \ohn g'4 } >>
}
Further tweaking might be required to position the hidden note
correctly, but I find it easier to shift a note around than ties and things
Hope that helps
Magnus
