I am using Lilypond 2.14.2 in 'full tablature' mode with no standard notation staff. Just tablature.
I am trying to shorten the stem of two beamed grace notes attached to the first note of a quarter note tuplet. Using the 'add-grace-note-property' seems to work, but will only let me lengthen the stems, not shorten them. They are already longer than the quarter note stems because of the two 16th note beams. I never noticed that beamed stems are taller than non-beamed stems. Is that adjustable? It looks like the default is to extend the stem height by the width of the beams. Also, can the beam thickness of the grace notes be 'thinned'? Since the fret numbers are smaller I think the other parts of the notation should be smaller as well. Suggestion: The default engraving behaviour should be to draw the grace notes with shorter stems than than the note it's attached to. Merry Christmas . . . I mean happy holidays. I forgot there's a war against Christmas. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Grace-Note-Beam-Length-and-Tuplets-tp32991920p32991920.html Sent from the Gnu - Lilypond - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
