Hi Nick, you'll find more noteheads here: http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/the-feta-font#shape_002dnote-notehead-glyphs . This snippet by Victor Adan shows how to use them in a score: http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Snippet?id=475. An example: cowbell = { \once \override

Hi Urs, > - How could I remove the gap between the first two stems? Maybe try with a temporary \set Score.proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment 1 8) for that particular group of notes? As for the beam lengths, I'm not sure what the best solution would be -- \override Stem.details.bea

Hi Thomas, if I understand you correctly, you want the two voices to share a notehead -- even when they are not simultaneous? Interesting. Here's one possibility, scaling the durations in the upper voice to fit: { \relative c'' { \time2/8 << { c8..*20/21 [ c32*4/3] } \\ { \t

Hi Ming, someone with more knowledge about Unicode (and Windows) could perhaps explain why that happens, but since you also asked for a workaround: Instead of using \bookOutSuffix, you could try with \bookOutputName, like this: \book { \bookOutputName "+中国曲子+" Which works fine over here (vers

2014-03-18 Thread Fredrik Wallberg
Hi Kevin, if you want one syllable to be sung on more than one note, add a slur across the notes to create a melisma. This is standard lyrics notation and Lilypond will behave as you would expect. And if you *really* want that extender line after "sleigh", you should use two underscores, not three

Re: How do I write this in chordmode?

Hi Daniel, \chordmode { e:m5.8 } seems to work as well. This formula is very practical if you need something like: \chordmode { e:m5.15 } More examples here: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/notation/chord-mode / Fredrik ___ lilypond-user
