Just add it at the top of your source file. LilyPond syntax can be quite simple sometimes, you know :) Here's what your file looks like now: \paper { ragged-right = ##t } \score { \context Staff \relative c'' { \appoggiatura b16 b8 b16 b16 } \layout{ \context { \Staff \remove Staff_symbol_engraver \remove Time_signature_engraver \remove Clef_engraver } } } Cheers, Valentin _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
