Re: Space between 2 headers

How do I add fingering for chords

Can I add fingering information for ChordNames when chords are entered using chordmode? Fingering when using staffs might be interesting as well. Since this is for an accordion, a single finger is often sufficient, and I don't need 1 number per note. \version "2.9.19" \include "english.ly" #(set

Hiding empty staves

Hi all! I'm using \RemoveEmptyStaffContext to 'French' a piece that I'm typesetting, but the first system still shows the empty staves. In the manual section on hiding empty staves it states "...If empty staves should be removed from the first system too, set remove-first to true in VerticalAxisGr

Re: Adding a spacer

Thanks both of you! I defined spacer as mentioned in the archive thread, and I'm simply adding it to the definitions of the ornaments I feel need more space so that I never have to bother with it. Perhaps these changes should be merged into the bagpipe.ly file that's shipped with Lilypond

Re: Adding a spacer

An alternative might be to redefine all or some of the predefined ornaments in bagpipe.ly to include a spacer note at the end of the grace notes, for example to replace the definition dblG = { \grace { \small g32[ G d] } } by dblG = { \grace { \small g32[ G d] s } } /Mats Kieren MacMillan wr

Hi, I need to do a pitchedTrill, where the bracketed pitch has to be played as a harmonic. Using \pitchedTrill 2~\startTrillSpan 4~ \stopTrillSpan results in an error. In addition another pitched Trill with an "es" above the staff (third ledger line) doesn't display the accidental (using 'es!'

One option is to use the new possibility in version 2.10 to specify the ties separately for each note in the chord, see the NEWS for version 2.10. /Mats Orm Finnendahl wrote: Am 16. November 2006, 09:40 Uhr (+0100) schrieb Mats Bengtsson: To make a single note in a chord invisible, you hav

In this situation, there is no need for a music function, just use a normal identifier: displayBarNum = \once \override Score.BarNumber #'break-visibility = ##f See section "Saving typing with identifiers and functions", for example. /Mats yota moteuchi wrote: Could we add to the doc, secti
