Hi Peter, Are you simply trying to replace Lilypond's inter-syllable hyphen with an emdash? If so, just override it directly: \version "2.15.14" \paper { ragged-right = ##f } MD = { \once \override LyricHyphen #'stencil = #ly:text-interface::print \once \override LyricHyphen #'text = "—" \

I also notice that with the enclosing of the actual syllable and the en-dash within double quotes, the alignment of the syllable with the note is distorted. On Sun, Oct 16, 2011 at 21:12, Peter Olin wrote: > Thanks Kieren! > > That's close to what I want. Yes. > > However I'd like to see the en

Hi Jan-Peter! Thanks for the tip. Using an UTF dash indeed makes it show up in the lyrics - and so far that's good. But then the trouble is that I don't want it to "consume" a note. It seems to be counted as a syllable. I've been looking at the LyricHyphen and tried to experiment with overridin

Hi, trying to override Beam-stencil I need to read out the number of beams, the space between the beams and the thickness of the whole beam (shown by the red bracket). Of course I need only two of this values to detemine the third, but I only managed to get the thickness of a single Beam. http:/

Hello Peter, to include the mdash sign in lilypond, it should appear as such in the (UTF8) encoded source. The double dash in lilypond evokes a hyphenation event to draw thin and short Lines between two syllables. If the emdash is not a syllable on its own, you might want to override hyphen pro

Hi all! After a 20+ years hiatus from LaTeX use, I've again found reasons to wet my toes again. I'm trying to typeset some verse with LilyPond - where the verse text includes hyphens (endashes, or possibly emdashes), but it's not as straightforward as I had hoped using LilyPond. Maybe someone can
