Nested tuplets, making transparent first number makes also the following

2007-03-12 Thread José Luis Cruz
Hello, I'm working on a guitar piece and I've encountered a problem. I hope anyone has a clue of the solution, or maybe I've found a bug. In this measure I'm using 2 voices, I want to use a tuplet for the first 3 quarter notes of the measure. On the first voice there are 4 triplets while whi

Nested tuplets start at the same moment. To override musical constructs beginning at the same moment in the same voice, there's a handy \tweak function. \tweak is useful primarily for overriding attributes of individual notes in a chord and also for setting overriding nested tuplets separately.
