Hello everybody,
a long-time user here, never been a power user though, but I'm back to
Lilypond after quite many years. I'm considering the possibility of
notating a future orchestral project using Lilypond. As I never used
it for anything bigger than chamber music, I'm learning how to

Hi,
I have two problems related to the trill spanner length.
\version "2.22.1"
{
ees1\startTrillSpan
\time 3/4
d2\startTrillSpan d4\startTrillSpan \stopTrillSpan
}
First bar: according to Gould (p. 136) the trill line should stop at
the barline. Is there a way to achieve this?
Second bar: t

The solution was simple, I just had to place a '-' before \tweak.

Hello,
I'm trying to change the vertical alignment of the dashed line so that
it is at the same level with the bottom of the text 'cresc.', instead
of being at the centre.
I checked the documentation for the DynamicTextSpanner but couldn't
find the right property to change.

DynamicTextSpanner.bound-details.right.Y = #-1

Hello everybody, and happy new year!
In the example below I would like to add another set of grid lines to
show the triplet subdivisions in the lower staff. Moreover, I'd like
to colour the two grid lines differently. I couldn't find any example
and I'm not sure whether this is actually possible.

I'd like to change the size of the accidentals and their alignment in
chord symbols.
Here a MWE:
\version "2.25.5"
\chords {
aes2 cis
}
Specifically, I'd like to have all the flats smaller, and the sharps
smaller and horizontally center-aligned with the root note name.
I checked the manual an
ake-musicglyph-markup "accidentals.sharp")))
However, I didn't manage to change the size of the accidentals. If
anyone could point me in the right direction it would be great! Bear
in mind, my knowledge of Scheme is primitive to say the least.
Best regards,

It's not yet perfect, as I'd wish the sharp sign to be still smaller,
but satisfactory enough.

Hello,
in the following example (see attached edited pdf) I'd like to reduce
the distance between the suffixes. It looks like the distance between
the root and the first suffix is smaller than the distances between
the following suffixes.
\version "2.25.5"
\chords{
des:maj7.5+ fis:7.5+.9+.11+
}
Indeed chordNameSeparator is responsible for the space between suffixes.
Solved as follows:
\version "2.25.5"
\chords{
des:maj7.5+ fis:7.5+.9+.11+
}
\layout {
\context {
\ChordNames
chordNameSeparator = #(make-hspace-markup 0.2)
}
}

Hello,
When trying to compile the complete score of the piece below (88
staves and 120 quarter notes), I noticed it was taking many hours (I
didn't finish the compilation). Trying with shorter versions, I got
the following compilation times:
- 2x quarter notes -> 16.7",
- 4x quarter notes -> 1'17",
Dear Jean (and Valentin!),
thank you so much! The page breaker was the problem, and after
applying your fix the compilation time on my machine is around 3
minutes. I'll soon be able to finish the score, just need to fix the
duration ratio and the layout.
Again, thank you!

Hi,
Here is a hack, and among the various things to be fixed, the beam
thickness of the fake grace notes needs to be checked more carefully
against the 'real' grace notes. I calculated the starting point of the
fake grace according to the percussion part, so it begins on the
upbeat of the 3rd beat.
I was going to submit a bug report about the collision issues, but it

Maybe even better than writing explicitly the number of systems per page,
\paper { page-breaking-system-system-spacing.padding = 2 }
(https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.25/Documentation/notation/paper-variables-for-page-breaking)
seems to work.

Hello,
I realised that Lilypond doesn't like it if the metronome value is a
non-integer. In the example below, assigning 7 to the voiceAmount
variable triggers a 'error: not an unsigned integer'. I tried to
construct the metronome number marking as a markup, but without
success.
Any suggestions?

Hello,
I'm testing different ways to notate the top-staff rhythm in the
example below (a 25:16 tuplet over two bars, or a quintuplet built on
four notes of another quintuplet). I have a couple of problems:
1. I'd like to notate the first staff ratio as in the attached image,
but I have no idea how
\translate-scaled #'(3.3 . 2.8) \magnify #0.5 "5" } \override
TupletBracket.padding = #0 \override TupletNumber.Y-offset = #1.5
\tuplet 5/4 { c8[ c c c c] } }
}
}

I'm trying to find the right option to make sure that the bar spacing

See this example: if it's one bar long it works, if 2 or more it doesn't.

Hi everybody,
In this example, everything looks fine when there are max. 3 nested
analysis brackets (first score). However, when the brackets are 4 the
distance between them is irregular.
Moreover, how to reverse the order of the brackets so that the
shortest ones are closer to the staff?
Thanks
