Re: How do I change the size of lyric text?

Abraham, I make a lot of lead sheets, and I do the following: %%% \version "2.19" \layout { \override LyricText #'font-size = #2 } Chords = \chordmode { c2 e2:m } Music = \relative c' { c4 d4 e4 f4 } Lyrics = \lyricmode { Do re me fa } << \new ChordNames { \Chords } \new Staff <<

2019-05-17 Thread Gregory Hollands
Aaron, I noticed that the scaling factor -- #3 in the example below -- is not the same between this method and the standard method ( \override Chordname #'font-size). This isn't a problem, as I was able to adjust the font size to my liking, however I am curious as to why the difference exists. %%

Hi Pierre, In your solution, what’s the best way to "pad" the end of the staff (so that there’s space between the right edge of the key signature and the right edge of the staff)? \tweak-ing the KeySignature.extra-spacing-width doesn’t seem to work. =( Thanks! Kieren.
