Decrescendo on last note.

2016-08-27 Thread Evan O'Dorney
Hi everyone, For a change, I'm not posting a question or feature request. Instead, I've noticed that quite a few Lilypond users have asked how to typeset a hairpin (typically a decrescendo) on the last note of a piece, extending all the way to the final barline. Various solutions have been posted,

Glad I could brighten your day. For the record, it's simply \once \override DynamicText.X-offset = -3 for dynamics attached to a note. Best, Evan On Thu, Aug 25, 2016 at 4:38 PM, Abraham Lee wrote: > > > On Thursday, August 25, 2016, Evan O'Dorney wrote: > >>

Dynamics to the left of the note

2016-08-25 Thread Evan O'Dorney
Hi all, Could someone please remind me how to print a dynamic mark to the left of a (ledger-line) note, instead of above or below it? I know it's in the manual, but Google is not being merciful to me today. MWE: d\f Thanks, Evan ___ lilypond-user mail

Works great! I assume that one must manually change the name of the upper staff from "S" to "S1" enough measures in advance to show up correctly. Evan On Wed, Aug 17, 2016 at 9:07 PM, Evan O'Dorney wrote: > Wow! I'll have to try it out. > > Evan > &

Hiding a staff with notes in it

2016-08-17 Thread Evan O'Dorney
Hi all, Is there a way to allow Lilypond to hide a staff on certain systems, similar to \RemoveEmptyStaffContext, but applicable to certain non-empty staves? My situation is that I have a choral piece where the 1st and 2nd sopranos divide, and I would like to see two staves of identical material l

HI everyone, Is it possible to slash an after-grace note, so that the three grace figures in this example all look alike? \relative c'' { \time 3/4 f4( \slashedGrace e8) f4( \slashedGrace e8) \afterGrace f4( { e8) } c2. } Thanks, Evan ___ lilyp

Hi everyone, I'm working on a piece that includes cross-rhythms with 6/8 sounding against 2/4, with the bar lengths constant. I'm trying to compress my code with a music function like this: \include "english.ly" > > inTwoFour = > #(define-music-function > (parser location mus) > (ly:mus
