\transposition normalized

If I have a section like: \relative c' { \time 4/4 \transposition f c e g c | \transposition ees c, e g c | \transposition d c, e g c | } Is there an easy way to change it all to the same key for printing? Something like '\normalizeTransposition f \music' would be equivalent to: \

Reinhold, I noticed that on the second staff (downward stems), the eighth notes have their flags all in the C space, rather than at the end of their stems. Do you know why that happened? Tim Reeves original message: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 06/19/2008 09:05 AM Ple

A \score{...} block is a syntactical construct, which internally creates a Score context (among others). It is also possible to explicitly instantiate a Score context, but I don't really see the added value of doing it (even though I seem to recall that there was some specific reason to introduc
