Did you check if the convert-ly command resulted in any warning or error messages? It's not uncommon that convert-ly finds a construct that it's not able to handle automatically. If this is the case, it write an error message on the output and only converts the file up to the version that it was able to handle. You then have to manually edit that specific part of the file and then you can use convert-ly to continue its automatic updates. I have experienced some old files where this process has to be repeated several times before convert-ly is able to bring it all up to the latest version (i.e. the latest version that required any changes of the syntax). /Mats _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
