\partcombine See NR 1.5.2 Multiple voices > Automatic part combining http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/notation/multiple-voices#automatic-part-combining It's far from perfect (see the numerous issues with "partcombine" tag on the tracker), but it gives a quite nice output without much tweaks. > The piece also generates several warnings about clashing note > columns. This is due to the fact that you have different voices with stems "clashing" (two or more voices with same stem directions and no shift). It is only a warning in the sense "these voices are not 'differentiated', are you sure you did not meant to use a chord construct or partcombine?", as I understand it. > And I realized that when I put several scores on the same page, > I don't know how to put a page break between scores. \bookpart See NR 4.3.2 Page breaking http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/notation/page-breaking Cheers, Xavier -- Xavier Scheuer <x.sche...@gmail.com> _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
