Thanks again. Now, from what I see, I can extract if #mus is a Beam with (ly:music-property mus 'name) --> BeamEvent After that, how can I set, inside the same function you wrote, a variable with the beam-thickness value of the corresponding Beam? something like (pseudo code): (set! myVar curre

And thanks again to the Scheme-master Aaron. One last thing: how can I arrange that function so to obtain output-attributes = output-attributes + id ? For example: if output-attributes is (('a' . 'aa') ('i' . 'ii')) it must become:(('a' . 'aa') ('i' . 'ii') ('id' . 'foobar_1')) On Wed,

Hi Paolo, > The ids must be: foobar_1, foobar_2 etc. Can they be foobar.1, foobar.2, etc. instead? Lilypond has a nice built-in mechanism for that naming/pointer convention. Hope that helps! Kieren. Kieren MacMillan, composer (he/him/his) ‣ website: www.kierenm

Hi Paolo, After some googling and tweaking I managed to make the counter you wished: \version "2.19.83" #(define* (make-counter #:optional (cnt 0) (inc 1)) (lambda () (set! cnt (+ cnt inc)) cnt)) #(define serial (make-counter)) token = -\tweak output-attributes #`((id . ,(string-a

In addition, Stefano, If you have time, please try the snippet for tuning the beams (second attachment). Any test of these things are very helpful for me. On Tue, Dec 17, 2019 at 11:18 PM Stefano Troncaro wrote: > Hi Paolo, > > Look at this: > > \version "2.19.83" > > token = -\tweak output-attr

Hi Paolo, Look at this: \version "2.19.83" token = -\tweak output-attributes #'((id . "foobar")) \etc \relative { c'4 d8 -\token [ e ] f2 } That achieves half of what you want. Now, how to make "foobar" automatically increment I don't know, perhaps someone else can help with that. Hope that h

Re: Need help with Lily Pond File

HI Yerko, and welcome. Can I make the politest suggestion? People on the list always object when I say how I think things should be done, but this file is illegible and unwieldy, with very, very long lines, making it a really hard slog to help you. A good practice is to have each bar on one line.
