Hi there, I'm almost finished with my first lilypond piece. I'm quite happy with the results. But, there are a couple of questions left regarding the output. Please consider the following piece:
\version "2.12.2" #(ly:set-option 'delete-intermediate-files #t) % deletes the .ps file automatically \header { title = "Title" composer = "Band" } << \new ChordNames { \chordmode { \set chordChanges = ##t g1 | g4.:sus4~g16:sus4 g2~g16 | \break bes1 | bes4.:sus4~bes16:sus4 bes2~bes16 | \break c1 | c2:sus4 c2| \break c:m | c:m | } } \new Voice \with { \consists Pitch_squash_engraver } \relative c'' { \improvisationOn g4 g8. g16 g8 g~g16 g g g g8. g16 g16 g g8 ~ g16 g g g g4 g4 g8. g16 g8 g~g16 g g g g8. g16 g16 g g8 ~ g16 g g g g4 g4 g8. g16 g8 g~g16 g g g g8 g8 g8. g16 g16 g16 g8 g4 g4 g8. g16 g8 g~g16 g g g g4 g8. g16 g8 g~g16 g g g } >> Here are my questions. 1. In the first and second line inside the 2nd measure the second chord is hovering to far to the right over the tie. Is it possible to have the chords above the note where the tie starts? 2. In the last line and 2nd measure. The c:m is missing. Why? 3. In the \header does lilypond have options for putting down what the guitar is tuned too? Also, not necessary for this piece, but how can I state where to put a capo? Thanks again everyone who helped me out so far, Christian _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
