Re: Adding an introductory note(s)

Thanks for helping me. I'll admit I'm new to useing this program and computer codeing syntax in general. I read the entire manual already and continue to study it. Usualy I can find my own solutions. This one had me stumped and I became frustrated after several hours of not getting anywhere. I coul

Re: Adding an introductory note(s)

Hi Jacobe, Lilypond is a rich and complex application. The manuals and learning material are extensive. There's a vast amount of deep information. It often happens that one can miss a section that may be obvious to other people. It's not fair of anybody on this list to blame you for not being able

Weird tremolo beams in whole-note tremolo.

Hello everybody, I encountered some weird behavior of tremolo beams on whole notes, as in this MWE: \version "2.19.62" { \repeat tremolo 8 { c'16 c'' } } This generates tremolo beams which are always horizontal and placed right next

Re: Adding an introductory note(s)

I transcribe a lot of fiddle tune music and I struggled with the anacrusis element. I thought I'd share my experience and how I resolved them. There may be a more elegant way, but my solution is working for me. The anacrusis limitations/quirks that I struggled with included the following. 1) Plac

Re: trouble adding space between systems

Thanks! Your second solution: \paper { system-system-spacing.basic-distance = #20 } is just what I needed. One thing I'm noticing, though, is that when I compile melodies into a chapter using lilypond-book and pdfLaTeX, my specifications for vertical spacing get ignored. In other words, the

Re: trouble adding space between systems

That would be because (as far as I understand) lilypond-book inserts your scores as single images, each containing one system. Hence, the space between systems that Lilypond would use plays no role here; instead, the spacing has to be defined in LaTeX. In my last large document, \newcommand{\betw

Re: trouble adding space between systems

Great points. Your answers cleared up a few big misconceptions for me. Indeed, LaTeX and lilypond-book will have the final say on integrating and spacing musical systems, so the \newcommand trick was just the right ingredient. Thank you both! On Mon, Jul 31, 2017 at 12:06 PM, Lukas-Fabian Moser

Why doesn't \once \override NoteColumn.force-hshift work on more than one note in a measure

Hello all, Curious about why \once \override NoteColumn.force-hshift only seems to affect the first note of a measure. This snippet shows 3 staves, the first unmodified, the second with the chord shifted left and the e'' shifted right, and the third attempting to shift both e'' and c'' right. But

Re: Why doesn't \once \override NoteColumn.force-hshift work on more than one note in a measure

I believe it's because the second note does not naturally collide with any other, and has no cause to be 'forced' out of the way. Instead use /\once \override NoteColumn.X-offset/ for those notes. I'm sure another user will explain the technical reasons! -- View this message in context: http://

Thanks Dominic. I'll give that a try. Guy On 7/31/2017 9:09 PM, Dominic wrote: I believe it's because the second note does not naturally collide with any other, and has no cause to be 'forced' out of the way. Instead use /\once \override NoteColumn.X-offset/ for those notes. I'm sure another us
