triplet over half note

2005-06-21 Thread Sterling Sympatico
Hi, How do I, in the right hand of a piano score, make a chord as follows: e and g (half note) with [c d e] triplet above. The c d e is three quarters played by the right hand while the rh is holding the e and g half notes. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Sterling __

Hmm. This is a real puzzler, because even though the Beam object implements the grob-interface, only certain grob properties have any effect. Specifically, I tried the following on a small test file and they did nothing: \once \override Voice.Beam #'X-extent = #'(0 . 15) \once \override Voice.Be

In general, the rule of thumb is that LilyPond assumes any given note is "close" to the previous note. A fourth above and a fifth below, if I recall correctly. So, c f would be a C, followed by the F above it, while c g would be a C followed by the G below it. Makes sense? -ATR- On 6/21/05, Ro

As long as the music stays mostly within the same octave, you might find it easier to use absolute mode and just transpose it to the right octave. Example: \score{ \transpose c c'{ c4 c g g | a a g2 | f4 f e e | d d c2 | g4 c' f d' | e g, d2 | } } /Mats Roman V. Isaev wrote: I'm not a g

I'm not a good musician. In other words, I never can tell when the next note is going to be octave up or down. On other hand it's difficult to enter scores without relative mode, too much typing. So how to cope with this? Is it possible to tune vim that it would show where the last note i

If you don't specify that .map file and use this package, then you will get bitmapped fonts, which doesn't really do any harm as long as you print the scores on paper or view the Postscript file without zooming in too much. However, if you view a PDF file with bitmapped fonts on the screen, it wil

So, it seems that you have downloaded the program successfully. Follow the instructions at http://lilypond.org/web/install/windows on how to run a test file. Then go on to read the Tutorial. LilyPond is very different from most other programs you have seen in Windows, but once you get used to it,
