RE: Rhythmic slashes
I've never tried it, but could you use a drum voice to avoid transposition problems?

I never thought of transpose, that would misplace the slashes. Is there any wrapper that can flag a range of notes to not participate in parent transposition? For example: \dontTranspose { b b b b } Such a command would open up the free use of all kinds of rhythmic notehead possibilities for comping or slapping the guitar top, etc. that non-percussion instruments per-se can utilize in their voices. This slash notation is very commonly used, and I think there should be at least a small example in the manual on how to do it properly. (In my original example I still have to hide the stems, but they could be handy if you want to show a specific rhythm) -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Rhythmic-slashes-tf2592859.html#a7241284 Sent from the Gnu - Lilypond - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Identifiers
How do you attach a duration (or other notation) to an identifier? Example: I have: 8 16[ ] I want to use "" as an identifier so I tried the following but it didn't work: var = { < a c e> } \score { { \var \var16[ \var16] } } I am using lilypond 2.8.6 ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

How to add a smart alignment to my lyrics?
Hello users! I want to follow this style of aligning lyrics to the notes whenever a lyric syllable starts a new verse: \once \override LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #-1 \once \override LyricText #'X-offset = #-1 However I wonder if, by using Scheme, one could apply this setting *whenever* a new system is created, so that every first lyric syllable can be left aligned in the beginning of a system -- a style used by some song publishers. Well, I don't know Scheme and won't be able to study much maybe until next year. So, if someone feels challenged to do this and share the code, I'd be much beholden to him.

Given the slash is already part of the Feta font, I assume it should be possible - I'm just not sure how to do it! Can someone explain how to do this, or why it's not possible?
