Greetings - I'm getting there, and I'd like to thank all of you for the wonderful program and all the help!
I'm running LilyPond 2.11.23 under Windows XP SP2. I'm including a snippet and the log from running the snippet. I'm using a silent note (space holder?) to allow a different clef cue at the beginning of the piece, and it is causing a barcheck failure. The failure doesn't seem to produce any other problems, so should I just ignore it? Or is there a better structure to use to get my intended result? Also, I'm trying to get "tr" plus the wavy line for the length of the dotted quarter note. I can't seem to get it to work. Perhaps I'm wrong in believing that the trill should be for just the length of the dotted quarter; is it standard practice to have the trill indication last through the "turn" at the end of the trill? Even if that is the case, why doesn't my setup work? Here's the snippet, followed by the log: %%%%%%%%%% Begin Snippet %%%%%%%%%% \version "2.11.23" \include "english.ly" AoFIIIvcl = { \key d \minor \clef "F" \time 2/2 \once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'break-align-symbols = #'(time-signature) \mark \markup {\teeny \note #"4" #1 \teeny {" = 92 - 100"} } \set Score.skipBars = ##f \once\override TextScript #'extra-offset = #'(7.0 . -1.3) s1*1/10 \clef alto %Cue << { R1*9/10 | } \\ { \set fontSize = #-3 d'2*4/5_"Vla" a2 | } >> \clef bass %Measure 27 fs4.*9/10\<\startTrillSpan( s4.*1/10\stopTrillSpan e16\!\> fs) g8\!( f e d) | cs4.*9/10\<\startTrillSpan( s4.*1/10\stopTrillSpan b,16\!\> cs) d8\!( c b, a,) | gs,4 gs a a,8( b,) | \bar "|." } \score { \AoFIIIvcl } %%%%%%%%%% End Snippet %%%%%%%%% ++++++ Start of log +++++ # -*-compilation-*- Changing working directory to: `C:/Documents and Settings/rpalmer/My Documents/Ralph/Sheet Music/LilyPond/Test' Processing `C:/Documents and Settings/rpalmer/My Documents/Ralph/Sheet Music/LilyPond/Test/Test.ly' Parsing...
