Re: Fixed measure width for chord charts.

I see that my question has been asked before: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2010-06/msg00127.html in the more challenging environment where the notes are also being typeset. That was four years ago, and no answer to the equal-measure-width question was given. I would be happy to

English speakers (at least the ones in my part of America) will say "cee" or "cee-natural" for the note C. The latter is to emphasis that you are not speaking of another pitch like C-sharp. In the key of D, say, some people will say "cee" when they mean "cee-sharp". "cee-natural" shows you haven

Re: Add lyrics after n measures

Hello Marco, Spacer rests are available only in note mode and chord mode. In other situations, for example, when entering lyrics, the command \skip is used to skip a musical moment. \skip requires an explicit duration, but this is ignored if the lyrics derive their durations from the notes in a
