Really? It works perfectly for me, with 2.17.13: \offset Stem #'length #2 % in positions, not ss! see attached. >> I have no idea why this wasn't added to LilyPond yet - it's very >> handy. > > It seems that it doesn't yet fully support the `dot' notation > (i.e., using `foo.bar' instead of `foo #'bar'). Can this be fixed? That'd be good. Maybe David'll have some spare time - i'm sure that he'd be able to fix it in a breeze, unlike me. Janek
