You have found a bug! Fortunately, it has already been reported and fixed in on of most recent development versions, 2.9.x. The next stable version will be released within some week, so you either wait for that 2.10 version or upgrade to the latest development version 2.9.x (which can be considered fairly stable since we are so close to the next stable release).

Hello everyone! I've recently started using lilypond, and an having a ball. It is a fabulous program - I've only produced a few simple scores, but everyone who has seen them has been very impressed - and I'm just a newbie to this. However, I have now hit a problem which I can't solve. For some reason, some (but not all) of the dynamic marks in my latest attempt are printing very very low - way below the staff. And I don't know why... :-( I can correct them using the 'override' function with DynamicText, but whilst that puts them back in the right place, it seems that as far as the line spacing is concerned lilypond still behaves as if they are in the wrong place - so the spacing of the staves is very uneven. I'm using version 2.8.5, and the .ly file I'm working on is here: http://home.exetel.com.au/chillikebab/ibert3.ly I've commented the file where the problems are; the 'overrides' are commented out at the monent so the dynamics print out in the wrong place. If you put the overrides back in you can see that the dynamics look OK, but the line spacing doesn't change. Any help for a lilypond newbie woudl be appreciated. PS the piece is the viola part for Ibert's 'Saxophone Conertino', 2nd movement, in case you were wondering...! _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
