When? \harmonicsOn is not a context creating command. > and that a command applies to the lowest context (which is Voice here) No, it is Score. And since the Staff created when the implicit Voice gets created at the first note has its own idea of noteheads, and since Staff settings overrule Score settings, you don't get to see anything. > If that is no special feature with a good reason, \new Staff { \harmonicsOn ... is able to affect _all_ Voices in a Staff. After your change, it wouldn't. Now this reason is a bit weaker with 2.16 and so, since you can also say \new Staff \with { \harmonicsOn } ... but that has not always been the case. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
