Hi Kieren, I am sorry, I don't have the time to read all replies to this thread, so it might be already discussed – I haven't seen it on a quick look. But how about this: LilyPond has no strict hierarchy of voices and staves (like other programs do). This allows for voices switching between the s

Hi Simon, > here you are with an elaboration: Thanks. It's good to know what the "solution" is, in this MWE context. It might even be feasible — albeit frustratingly verbose — in a simple situation (e.g., piano with centred dynamics). That being said, I was (am sti

Hi Kieren, here you are with an elaboration: http://lilybin.com/f2e2fx/1> BTW, your snippet would have been more compilable without the typographical quotes (it seems your mail client inserts them - can you send as plain text?) Best, Simon Am 02-Jun-2017 21:53:59 +0200 schrieb kieren_mac

Hello all, No compilable code/snippet here… just a thought-experiment/question for discussion. Is there any way (currently possible, or relatively easily coded) that items in one context can be independently pushed “through” or “beyond” other contexts? As one (obvious) example, say I start wit
