Thanks for this - I see that the alignment of bars down the page is achieved. I have seen Open Office used to get this sort of look, but with more control (*) over the size and shape of the symbols (important for displaying on tiny - smartphone - screens). What LilyPond (& Denemo) can bring to the party is transposition, playback, adding (non-printing) drum tracks, using the same music for a lead sheet and a wealth of other stuff - dynamics, repeat bars etc. But it does seem that this alignment of bars down the page is quite important for those who play from these chord charts, so I would like to hear if this is a lost cause, or something that could be hacked in LilyPond's scheme. Richard (*) well, more control only for those familiar with Open Office... _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
