Hi Valentin; Thank you for your explanation. I've read it several times trying to grasp all of it. Now I'll have to read the Learning manual again and experiment further. I've started from scratch with a new piece, specifying voices from the start, trying to prevent these conflicts from hap

Hello Siomon & Hans, I have to ask the person who suggested that xml2ly should generate spiccatos what they’d like them to look like. Thanks for your answers! JM > Le 28 juin 2022 à 01:03, Simon Albrecht a écrit : > > Hi Jacques, > > On 27/06/2022 22:13, Jacques Menu wrote: >> Does anyone k

Thanks for the explanation. Apparently I misread the documentation. [detailed explanation snipped] I had a memory that the syntax had changed but couldn't find it upon a quick look since all the examples at the beginning of the notation reference still use the old syntax :) You can likely

Hello Michael, you’re not exactly wrong there. In recent versions is has become possible to put the \alternative inside the reapeat block, which allows having alternatives in other parts than the end, and after all one might say that this is in fact a more sane way to do it. But for Lilypond st

this is not a bug. You’re supposed to put the alternative after the repeat part not inside, so \repeat volta 2 { ... } \alternative { ... }. The way you have put it the \alternative ... is used as alternatives for the \repeat unfold (as it is placed after that one), so after the first repeat you g

Hi Mark, theoretically it should work to do something like \once\set Score.tempoWholesPerMinute = 10 to have a single step played slower (but I have not tried if this actually works). The value would then of course depend on your tempo and how much slower you want the step to be. Cheers, Valent

Hi list! the attached Lilypond code IMO shows a bug. Or have I misunderstood the way it is supposed to work? \version "2.23.10" music = \relative g' { \time 6/8 \partial 8 r8 | \repeat volta 2 { g8 r8 r8 d8 r8 r8 | g8 r8 r8 d8 r8 r8 | g8 r8 r8 d8 r8 r8 | g8 r8 r8 d8 r8 r8 | g8

The ottava bracket needs both ends defined to appear, so the ottava command and its cancellation should be at the start and end of the music to be affected, like this:   << { \ottava 1 \repeat unfold 4 c'' \ottava 0 } \\ { \repeat unfold 4 d,, } >> However, the command is acted on at the sta
