I feel like I was able to accomplish it without that… let me see if I can find 
the code I used.

I was the one building that… let me see if I can find the code I used.  :)

Thanks, William -

That helps a lot. Very close to the original.

On a side note (so to speak), I grew up in Olmsted Falls, and I have a
cousin who grew up in Oberlin. I spent a lot of time there.

All the best,

Ralph

Thanks, Kieren -

Yes. My mistake. Still didn't quite do what I'd hoped, though, even when I
corrected it.

All the best,

Best way to center beam between upper/lower staff?

2024-03-07 Thread Andy Bradford
Hello,

This has to be a FAQ, yet all my searching turned up a mixed bag.

I'm trying to have some notes cross from the lower staff to the upper staff but 
want the beam to automatically center.  In my example this is accomplished in 
measure 3 with much manual work.  Is there a better way?


%%%
\version "2.22.2"

\score {
  <<
\new PianoStaff {
  <<
\new Staff = "up" {
  <<
\new Voice {
  \relative c'' {
R1 
a4 g f e
e f g a
  }
}
  >>
}
\new Staff = "down" {
  <<
\clef "bass"
\new Voice {
  \relative c {
\voiceOne
d4 e f g
r8 a \change Staff = "up" c \change Staff = "down" a \change 
Staff = "up" d \change Staff = "down" a \change Staff = "up" e' \change Staff = 
"down" r
r8 a, \change Staff = "up" \stemDown c \change Staff = "down" 
\stemUp a \change Staff = "up" \stemDown d \change Staff = "down" \stemUp a 
\change Staff = "up" \stemDown e' \change Staff = "down" \stemNeutral r
  }
}

}

Thanks,

Is `\autoChange` [1] what you were looking for?

You might also need to play with `Beam.auto-knee-gap` [2].
