Hello, I'm not sure whether I'm doing this right but the manual states to change the fraction of an afterGrace note(s): The fraction 3/4 can be changed by setting afterGraceFraction, ie. afterGraceFraction = #(cons 7 8). By setting does it mean \set afterGraceFraction = #(cons 7 8). I've t

Hi Rick, Hi just had a look at your code and it seems that the system-count = #2 in the main document layout block is the problem. If your remove the 'system-count' and replace with a \break where the system-count function was providing the break (end of bar 5) and re-run both bars of the ossi

Thanks again Thies. I think I replied both to you and the group on this. My main reason for getting the lyrics between the barlines was that they often hung outside the bar on the right hand side of the page. Even more so if there was an extender line with the lyric. I tried the newly documented \

Hello All, I'd like to thank Han-Wen for his work in implementing the new figured bass scheme in Lilypond.
