Hello, my name is Michiel and I will admit first that I am very new to lilypond. The examples shown look great, so I was about to give it a shot... the first few lines of music went well, so I felt ready to put my first piece of music I ever wrote into lilypond. It's a piece for organ and the f

I need to produce a pair of half notes in 3/4 time with a duple bracket. The following code gives me the correct printed notes and time values but I have not found a way to override the number in the bracket. It is printing a '4' as advertised but I need a '2'. -David \paper{ linewidth = 7\

barlines - thickness and location

2004-09-19 Thread Jarkko Sipilä (Koti)
I would need a software which draws the barlines over the first note of the bar as a thin line. The barlines should not affect the distance between the notes. Like this: http://webusers.siba.fi/~jsipila/trio.jpg Which classes do drawing of the barlines and control location and thickness of the b

With 2.3.17 I'm getting rehearsal marks at an odd position when they occur at the beginnings of lines. They are horizontally aligned with the first note in the measure, or with the left end of a multimeasure rest. This looks wrong to me. In the original part I'm working from (Breitkopf und HÃrte
