strange chord

I tried the following ``` \version "2.25.16" chord = \chordmode { c4:6-^1 } << \new ChordNames \chord \chordmode { \chord } >> ``` and got the attached result. The displayed chord name looks weird to me, but I'm no expert for Jazz chords... Is it correct? If not, how should it be displ

Hi Werner, I mean… technically, it’s correct… but yuck. If I were customizing the name, I would probably have it say Em(addb4). At the very least it should say Emsusb4. — Kieren __ My work day may look different than your work day. Please do not feel

layout problem

2024-05-12 Thread Archer Endrich
Hello, I've been given a short item to realise in Lilypond and it includes a layout problem that I haven't been able to solve. Basically, it is a piano piece in which, after a bit, a part for chimes is added:  i.e., another staff above the piano's treble part a few bars in as in my MWE.  I h

Thank you, Timothy, for responding so quickly and explaining the solution in such a clear manner.  Although I've used labelling in other situations before, I still hadn't understood how to apply it here --- and now I do.  Thanks again. Archer On 12/05/2024 16:37, Timothy Lanfear wrote: On 1

Can I output PNG and midi from the same file?

Greetings, I have a few .ly files that work great and produce lovely pictures when I build then with a command like: lilypond --png my_song.ly​ I started to play around with midi output and was a little suprised to find that I needed to add a \midi code block to my file (instead of some other
