I searched the lilypond-docs and didn't find an answer to that question. For two voices in g-clef it is possible to write << { a8 g a4 b \rest a | } // { f8 e f4 b \rest f | } >> right? But for two reasons* I would prefer something like \joinRests << { a8 g a4 r a | } // { f8 e f4 r f | } >> * 1. if transposing or changing the clef the rest is no more in the middle of the staff 2. its to much to write btw. in the docs, I didnt find much about rests at all (at least in the german version, which I studied today (and btw. there is called "Bindebogen" in opposite to "Legatobogen", what I would call "Haltebogen". I would understand "Bindebogen" and "Legatobogen" synonym.)) Thanks for a hint. greetings Werner _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
