I don't fully understand the issues that spacer notes cause, below are a
couple examples.
This example of 3 measures of music with a glissando in the middle of
them, I think the two notes with the glissando are too close together to
print a decent looking zigzag glissando -
d b-. b b-. b b c d
e4\glissando c r8 e d c-.
b b-. b c-. a a-. a b
So I want to add a little space between those two notes, thereby making
the glissando a bit longer and better looking. I tried the code below
but it just pushes the last 3 eighth notes into the next measure (why?)
causing major problems -
d b-. b b-. b b c d
<<e4 {s4\glissando s4} >> c r8 e d c-.
b b-. b c-. a a-. a b
Yet a similar bit of code works just fine for a decrescendo -
r2 b4 b8 as
<< a2. { s4\> s4 s4\! } >> r4
r4 c8[ d] e4 c
I've read the sections in the LM and the NR but they don't get this
specific. Can someone help me make that zigzag glissando a bit longer?
Thanks,
Chip
