Hello, I have difficulty understanding this tiny example, which is a breakdown of my general problem:
{ %\key a \major << \chords { a1 c } \relative c'' { a1 c } >> } Without the \key command, the chords are shown above the staff. With \key, they are shown below the staff. I know from other threads that putting \key into a seperate block, which encloses the melody, solves the problem, but I don't understand why. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for your consideration, Christian _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
