Read in the chapter on "Changing Defaults" how to find the documentation of these properties. Regarding the naming, -extent refers to the extent of the object and offset to the offset (displacement) ;-) /Mats Quoting Henrik Frisk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > OK, that makes sense. Beginner question

OK, that makes sense. Beginner question: Is this terminology consistent for all properties, that is, *-extent referring to spacing and *-offset to 'real' size? /henrik Mats Bengtsson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Henrik Frisk wrote: > > Your suggested solution seems to be the way to do it.

Watch out when upgrading from 2.4 to 2.5 if you use lots of TeX markup (and it looks like you might, to achieve your /pedalc markup). Since 2.5 does not use TeX as a backend by default, you'll have to recode this stuff using standard markup. Version 2.5 writes PostScript directly without processi

Hmm. This is a real puzzler, because even though the Beam object implements the grob-interface, only certain grob properties have any effect. Specifically, I tried the following on a small test file and they did nothing: \once \override Voice.Beam #'X-extent = #'(0 . 15) \once \override Voice.Be
