years since I used lilypond last. I
must say it keeps getting better and better. The placement is usually
very good without my having to do anything. I'm also curious to know
if anyone is working on a jazz font for lilypond. I raised this issue
on the mailing list a few years ago but I
I found the following tip on page 242 of the lilypond manual:
\overrideProperty
#"Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn"
#'line-break-system-details
#'((fixed-alignment-extra-space . 5))
for increasing the space between individual systems. What about the
opposite? Is there an easy way for me to reduce t
Never mind. Found my answer. On the same page of the manual no less:
"The distance for fixed-alignment-extra-space may also be negative."
Sorry to trouble the list.

I'm trying to write an arpeggio on a piano system that begins in the
bass clef and continues in the treble clef with the same beam for the
eight notes. In other words, there are a series of eighth notes in
the arpeggio. The ones in the bass clef have note stems going down
from the beam and the o
There are also places where 3/2 is necessary with the current way of

How can I make the quarter note for the tempo indication smaller? I'm
not sure what object property to modify. Also, I want to provide a
tempo range, such as \tempo 4 = 84-92, but it croaks when I try to add

Hello,
In the following source I'm having a problem with lyrics lining up with
the right notes. After "fear", which starts on an eighth note, I want
to display an extender, but it isn't getting shown, which causes the
rest of the lyrics to be off by one note. Here is the source. I'm
using v
rests?
Thanks,

I've noticed that when I force a part's stems to go the other way using
\stemDown or \stemUp, the stems are quite a bit longer than the default
stems that are being used for automatically stemmed notes. This

of a score. I
Is there a way to make it so that if one word widens the note
distance, all the notes in the same beam are widened to even out the
note spacing?

Anybody know how to put blank spaces (rests) in lyrics? I accidentally
discovered that putting three underscores in a row skips over a note in
the lyrics, but I don't want to have to put in hundreds of these
sequences just to get to the part in my score that I want to add lyrics
to.
Thanks,

How do you do it if you are using \addlyrics?

Never mind. Your whole point was just to get rid of the addlyrics and
do this, which I just tried and it was fairly simple. Thanks for the
help.

How do you force lilypond to use a certain number of measures per
system?

I need to revise my statement. I was able to add an extender to a note
with a rest after it, as long as I didn't use the addlyrics mode.
There doesn't appear to be a way to do this in addlyrics mode.
