Re: note tweaks for variations in small size

2007-01-15 Thread Mats Bengtsson
This has been possible in LilyPond for many years. If you want the alternative pitch printed in the same stave, just typeset them in a separate temporary voice and reduce the font size. For example: \version "2.10.0" \relative c'{ c d e f | << % Main version: {g g } \\ % Alternative version: {
