Yet another confused newbie with lilypond-book margins.
I have one file with purely music definitions. I have another part that
sets up the score, papersize, etc. As usual, ly2dvi produces beautiful
sheet music. I'm extremely happy with the way it looks in ly2dvi.
Unfortunately, for various re
Hello,
What settings in my latex file do I need to include to
make my sheet music outputted from lilypond-book look
similar to the output from ly2dvi? It seems the staff
sizes (heights) are smaller coming from lilypon-book.
I can include my files if that will help.
thanks!

I suspect you mean \translate Staff=leftHand, not \transpose ... different
functions.
First thing I'd check is whether all the names Staff contexts are defined
and held within the StaffGroup. A similar thing happened to me & it turned
out I'd accidently uppercased a letter in the live staff name,
use the \transpose 'command'
\context Voice = one { \voiceOne \transpose a \VoiceOne }
will change the note pitch, and all other pitch related stuff (eg: keys) in
the \VoiceOne music block from c to a (down 4 1/2 steps). However, you may
end up fiddling a bit ... there is an interaction between
This is one of the frustrations I meet up with regularily. I hope this
helps (and also hope that others have better knowledge/experince to share),
but the best I have come up with to date is in 3 steps:

Along similar lines, I have a note tied into both the first and second
ending measures. (in the real part, not in cues this time) How do I
get the hanging tie into the second ending?
Again, this is with 1.6.8 cygwin or 1.6.5 redhat
Thanks!

In the middle of a voice I have the following:

Hi again,
I'm setting cues following the example in input/test/cue-notes.ly . (Is
there a better example?)
I'd like to set the first note with a tie to the previous non-existent
note, i.e. a hanging tie. Is the possible? What I have looks something
like this:
VoiceOne = \notes \relative c'
Along similar lines, when two voices both have rests of the same
duration, is there an easy way to join the rests?

Hello,
I thought I'd seen this in the tutorial, but now I cannot find it.
I have two voices on one staff. At times their rhythms are the same. I
want to specify that their stems should be joined during certain sections.
I know that I can do something like this:
\include "english.ly"

Hello,
The more I typeset, the more questions I have.
I would like to add some extra white between groups of notes,
small melodical patterns. At the moment I do that using \bar"",
but the white is very small, I cannot ajust it, and it feels
clumbsy. Is there something like the LaTeX \hspace{} in

Are you saying that abc2ly overrides the bar positioning? I don't
think that's a very good idea; it would be much better to tell lily

If I understand grace notes correctly, they do not take any time from the base
notes. The first alternative therefore has only 7 - 8ths of the 4/4 tempo
or the baseline before the alternative is a 7/8 partial measure and the
alternative starts 1/8 into the second bar (or some other 'partial'

Sorry about that -- the test file had an error in the placement of the

Hello Lilypond experts,
Step by step I get where I want to be. At the moment I have two
items I cannot get right.
The first one is that I want to get rid of the TimeSignature,
I want it to be empty. How can I do that?
The second one is that I want to set the TextScript font myself
