Hi,
I've just started trying out Lilypond and I'm amazed at the quality.
I'm still trying to figure out how to put staves together.
Can anyone help with a problem?

The treble contains both a melody line and an accompaniment,

I highly recommend reading the tutorial for 2.11. Even though this is
the unstable branch, the material in the new tutorial will apply to 2.10
(or even 2.8 or 2.6), and the new tutorial explains many things much better.
As for the templates, isn't D.2.2 exactly what you want?
Cheers,

Anybody feel like writing a wordy explanation about polyphony?

Hello,
I am using the following commands to get a short 6-measure, 9-staff
piece to fit on one page:

At this size, I discovered some (not all) of by triplet brackets disappear.

Brackets that would be too short to print nicely are automatically removed.
As far as I can remember, there is no possibility to specify the minimum
width
of a triplet and force LilyPond to modify the note spacing to get at
least this
width, but I may be wrong. There are such possibilities on so

LilyPond version 2.11.x solved my problem with no further intervention
from me.
Very nice!

Hello Mats
Today I had the same problem appear on a piano part that I extracted
with default staff size. I got an 8th note followed by a qtr note,
with only the number "3" below them, with no bracket. Boo.

Mark, what do you say? Is the current example in the manual too complex so
that the main points are not clear enough? Should we replace that example
by Kieren's?

Hi all,
I know two solutions to this problem. Tuplet brackets disappear when
the spacing gets tight, and seems to be a Lilypond "feature" rather
than a bug. The first solution is to manually increase the spacing
between notes in a tuplet:
\once \override Score.SeparationItem #'padding = #0.7

Thanks that's much better.
However the music looks wrong. The stem direction is as if
each voice had the stave to itself. I am getting repeated

I'm trying to set the autobeaming behaviour in 12/16 so that the semiquavers

properly:
