[no subject]

Dear All, here is perhaps a silly little question. I am trying to get a slur from a crotchet "into" one of the voices in a polyphonic voicing. In measure 1 the third blue note should have a slur connecting it to the next blue note, which is in the polyphonic part. I tried ( ) and \( \) with no succ

top-markup-spacing problem

Hi all, I’ve run into a problem when setting top-markup-spacing. When the markup is a score title, lilypond uses the basic-distance as the distance between the top margin and the top of the markup. When manually adding a top-level markup, however, the distance is calculated between the top marg
