arpeggio placement

I'm having trouble with altered fingering placements fouling up the position of an arpeggio line. It only happens when fingering indications are placed to the left of the notes--the arpeggio line and fingerings are moved way to the left, leaving a significant amount of space between the line an

Re: boxed measures

There are already functions available in LilyPond Scheme, to draw boxes, that should be useful here, such as box-stencil. To use it, you first have to create an (empty) stencil of the appropriate dimensions, for example using ly:make-stencil. /Mats Nick Payne wrote: The box could be drawn w

Re: Accidentals: Unwanted naturals

Without seeing your code we can only speculate about your problem. Having said that, however, new users often miss the point that LilyPond needs to be told the actual pitch of every note regardless of the key signature. If you're getting, for example, e-naturals when you want e-flats, be sure

I'm new to Lilypond and the list. So far the code is pretty intuitive, but I am stumped by the way accidentals work. Several posts deal with this subject, but probably are beyond a novice's ability to undertand. I'm transcribing a modern piece with 2 flats in the key signature (I've set \key g
