Absolute text size?

Hello list, is it possible to specify an absolute font size in text markups? I found this in the list archive: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2005-10/msg1.html Thomas ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lis

Hi Valentin, Can't help you with \parallelMusic directly, but... I would use everyday it if this was addressed Don't forget that you can fake \parallelMusic by explicitly pushing notes into an existing Voice context -- see snippet, below, for an example. It's not quite as pretty, but it a

Barcheck and TrillSpan

Greetings - I'm getting there, and I'd like to thank all of you for the wonderful program and all the help! I'm running LilyPond 2.11.23 under Windows XP SP2. I'm including a snippet and the log from running the snippet. I'm using a silent note (space holder?) to allow a different clef cue at th

Re: Barcheck and TrillSpan

Hi Ralph, I'm using a silent note (space holder?) to allow a different clef cue at the beginning of the piece, and it is causing a barcheck failure. The failure doesn't seem to produce any other problems, so should I just ignore it? Or is there a better structure to use to get my intended re

Setting stems on rests

Hi,I'm trying to fix a setting in my music and I can't figure out how. It's not a standard setting (well, it's a relatively new contemporary notation) so I don't imagine it will be too easyI need to be able to set stems on rests. I have large sections of 16th note/ 16th note rests which would be m

is there a callback for length-by-duration? (possible sponsorhip)

Hi all, Some time ago, I asked Han-Wen about sponsoring a feature where lengths (widths, really) could be set by duration (e.g., 16th note) instead of staff spaces. At the time, I couldn't think of a good example to back up my intuition of its importance, so we let it drop... However, the

Metric modulation markup ... à la Carter?

Hi, Is it possible to make the following tempo markup ... \times 2/3 { r8 n4 ~ } n4 = n2 ... complete with tuplet bracket (where the n4 and n2 represent simply \note #"4" and \note #"2")? The notation indicates that a duration of 1/6 + 1/4 (or 5/12) on the lefthand side of the barline equal
