It seems in Lilypond (v2.10.14) the default notation for glissandos is a straight line. I've never seen that notation used for glissando before so I have no idea why it's the default, but that's OK because everything can be changed, right?
So I tried "\override Glissando #'style = #'zigzag", thinking it would give me the right thing. But it gives me a very thin, light zig-zag line -- yet another notation that I have never seen used for glissando. The most common, correct notation for glissando looks like a trill mark. It's a wavy line of varying thickness. A statement in the on-line reference documentation suggests that "\override Glissando #'style = #'trill" might help: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.10/Documentation/user/lilypond-internals/line_002dspanner_002dinterface#line_002dspanner_002dinterface But unfortunately it doesn't work. I still get a light, straight line. How do I get correct glissando notation? -- Robert P.S. I really *love* the output I get from Lilypond but even (dare I say it?) Finale gets this particular piece of notation more or less right. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
