try: \version "2.14.2" %\version "2.15.20" music = \relative c' { \grace { d,16 [des] } c4 } \score { << \new Staff { \clef "G_8" \music} \new TabStaff { \tabFullNotation %\revert TabVoice.Flag #'transparent % comment in with "2.15.20" \music } >> \layout { \context { \TabVoice graceSettings = #`((Voice Stem length-fraction .5) (Voice TabNoteHead font-size -4) (Voice Beam beam-thickness 0.1)) } } } HTH, Harm P.S. Please post your code!! It is annoying to be coerced to write the code myself, you want to have improved. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
