Shortening ties

I have been attempting to get ties to stop short of the final notehead, but have been unsuccessful after several days of trying. So I now have to ask for help. I am attempting to get the ties of a chord to stop well short of the second note. Logic dictates, to me at least, that one of thes

RE: Strange page break

Hi Robert, I've noticed the same bug in 2.9.13 page breaks are happening in odd places. I have a score of 4 instruments where on the second page there is only one system printed and a new page is started. It's clear that more systems could have fitted. I've forwarded this to bug-lilypond as

Finally I found out about "\myStaffSize 20"

Seemingly a simple task: I want to change the global staff size of my score, AND I want some other fonts than the defaults. I've broken my head over this one, and I think I've got it now, but I also think it shouldn't have taken such an effort. If one wants EITHER to change the size OR the font

Rhythmic Staff not squashing out all the notes

I'm trying to make a simple chord sheet with underlying rhythmic staff, (chord names with durations). But the rhythmic staff is not "squashing out" all the notes as the manual says it should. To avoid typing I would hope there is a way to get rhythmic staff to only recognize durations and ignore

strict-note-spacing BUG in v.2.9.14 ?

hi all, I've been using Lilypond's proportional notation since the beginning and never had problems until I downloaded v.2.9.14 (windows XP). Now, Lilypond crashes almost always immediately after saying "Calculating line breaks..." in the compilation process. The simple snippet below crashes.

Strange page break

Hi all, I can't find the reason why there's a pagebreak after the first system on page 2 of my score. According to "annotate-spacing" there is enough space for a second system (like on the other pages). Could someone please have a look at the source file below? I'm using 2.9.14 (Linux) Regards,

glissando between non-adjacent notes

Hi all, I would like to know if any of you are interested in sharing with me the cost of sponsoring a glissando feature. (Han-Wen, how much would this cost?) The idea is to have a glissando start in one note and end in another *non adjacent* note. While looking for ways to do this with Lily, i f

Hi, Roman: c8^\markup {\column { {\bold "Allegro" (\smaller \general-align #Y #DOWN \note #"4" #1 = \smaller \general-align #Y #DOWN 100) } "Solo Trumpet" {\italic " Marcato"}}} The issue here is that \column interprets every element as an individual line. Therefore, you need to surround

Re: Problem with organ notes

Hi Johannes, thanks for your help! But I think this doesn't exactly fit to my problem. In the example below I get exactly the result needed and without compiling errors. But theres one disadvantage: the voices of these chords aren't separated into different files or sections within the main.ly
