Hi Kieren, hi David, I darkly remember a scheme engraver, that did something, whenever a time-sig-schange happens. IIRC it is based on snippet from you David. One might reduce it to the following: --snip-- % engraver #(define-public timesig-barline (lambda (context) (let ((last-fractio

Thanks David. This appears to work fine when adding markup to a staff (as in annotating below the staff). However, I'm trying to reference chords using this notation in text, in a music theory discussion regarding chord resolution. Since this isn't within lilypond markup, I don't think I can use

Hi, since the beginning of the year, I have worked on an alternative access to the LilyPond documentation, which I call a visual index. It is intended especially for tweaking purposes, if a user wants to change a property of an object. Here it is: http://joramberger.de/files/lilypond_visualindex.

Hi, I'm typesetting an orchestral score and need to insert an "auxiliary" staff for some strings in some places. The situation is this: in general, the 2nd violins occupy only one staff, even if they play divisi; however, in one instance (a passage of a few bars) the parts of each subgroup are too

Dear Joram, thanks for Your explanation! It is for a global variable. Instead of writing global = { \time 4/4 s1*4 \time 3/2 s2.*3 } I can do global = { \fourquarterbarskip #4 \threequarterbarskip #3 } If You have a lot of bar changes, I think, it means fewer key-strokes. Off course I should find
