Who can help? The glossary says „Stichnoten“ is in english cue notes and explains: „In a separate part notes belonging to another part with the purpose of hinting when to start playing. Usually printed in a smaller type.“
Unfortunately another meaning is missing. Sometimes there are smaller notes in a voice as alternative (e.g. for players not able to play as low or as high, the normal notes are). (Like ossia, but not in a separate stave!) I was looking for that now for a while in LM an d NR, but didn't find anything. My try with \cueDuring was not successful. The cue notes aren't printed, only the normal notes get stems upwards a this place. The possibility to handle with „chords“, in which some notes are small, seems to be much complicated - I suppose there is a better way(?) \version "2.12.2" \header { tagline = \markup \fontsize #-2 "Notensatz mit dem freien Programm LilyPond (www.lilypond.org)" } \include "deutsch.ly" Stichnoten= \relative { e4 d e f } \addQuote "Stichnoten" { \Stichnoten } Oberstimme= { \key c \major \time 2/2 \set fontSize = #-1 h'2 a4 g | c2 d4 e | \cueDuring #"Stichnoten" #DOWN { f2 g4 f } | e2 r | cis2 h4 cis | d c b a | f e f g | gis2 g4 f | \bar "|." } \score { \new ChoirStaff << \context Staff = NullteZeile \context Voice = NullteZeileOberstimme { \relative c' {\clef treble \Oberstimme} } \set Score.skipBars = ##t >> \layout { indent = #0 \context { \Score \remove "Bar_number_engraver" } } } Also h'2 a4 g | c2 d4 e | << { \stemUp f2 g4 f } { \stemDown e4 d e f } >> | \stemNeutral e2 r | cis2 h4 cis | d c b a | f e f g | gis2 g4 f | is not an answer (and the stems aren't up and down as they should be! Also I even don't know how to make the four notes smaller).
