A minor hairpin problem...

2007-10-24 Thread Chakat Sandwalker
Having got past my stem extension problem, I'm now at the end of the piece, where I have two \alternative bars at the end. In the bar preceding the first \alternative I'm starting a hairpin with \< and ending it with \! inside the \alternative bar, and the problem I have is that there doesn't

slurs for cue notes

2007-10-24 Thread Renee Klawitter
Hi there! I've just started using lilypond to transpose an ochestral horn part from c to f. It's starts with quoting the viola h4 to g2 with a slur on top. I used the example in the documentation to create the quote, but no slur appears on them, whereas in the horn part the slurs work just fine.

Hello Lilypond users I want to extract a Bb trumpet part from a concert score. The score is not really in a key signature (atonal music, not c major), so I do not want a key signature in the extracted part. I see that as long as no key is specified in the music file, then no key signature is i
