See the section on Line breaking for information on how to include line breaks in the middle of a measure. The same principle applies to page breaks. /Mats Adam James Wilson wrote: Hi, I'm a first time poster - I've been trying to use Lilypond for proportionally notating multi-tempo music.

page breaks within measures

2007-08-16 Thread Adam James Wilson
Hi, I'm a first time poster - I've been trying to use Lilypond for proportionally notating multi-tempo music. I'm writing a score that has two or more voices in different tempi simultaneously. To solve this, I make a huge measure. For example, the first staff will contain a minute of quarter no

Your observation is absolutely correct, so unfortunately you have to manually adjust the "indent" parameter (or the linewidth) to fit the instrument names. /Mats Michael Käppler wrote: Hi all, again a question I'd be very happy to helped with. If I add padding around instrument names, LilyPo

Padding around instrument names

2007-08-16 Thread Michael Käppler
Hi all, again a question I'd be very happy to helped with. If I add padding around instrument names, LilyPond doesn't care if the names are inside the margins. I thought that Lily would align the names on the left margin and move the system to the right. Kind regards, Michael ___

Hi all, can I get lilypond to automatically break pages in such a way that only full pages are created? For example, if the piece gets 1 1/2 pages long with optimal-page-breaking, lilypond decides whether to compress everything on 1 page or expand it to 2 pages? Kind regards, Michael _
