Re: bug with compound glyphs and/or diacritical markings?

Hi all, Interesting discovery: on Mac OS X, some Cyrillic keyboard layouts don't output proper Unicode glyphs! Selecting the desired glyph directly from the Unicode Table section of the Character Viewer outputs the correct glyph, and Lilypond then outputs the correct/desired result. Hope this

Can I write a bass line with score, same staff?

HI, I've done some searching but found no hints as to whether Lilypond can be used to write a bass line and melody or chord notes at the same time. Let's say for example I play a C and then an E half note for a measure 4/4. On beats 2 and 4 I would like to indicate that the notes G,C and E should b

Or formulated differently: How do you adjust print area to printed area in lilypond? I mean, using paper margins = 0 lets white space at the top and bottom of the printed area. I suppose there is a way to crop the paper to the very outside black areas... Thanks in advance, Francois 2015-01-10
