grace notes collisions

I'm having trouble avoiding collisions in the following case, can anyone point me at some relevant documentation or example code? \version "2.10.25" \layout{ ragged-last = ##t } \score{{ \time 2/4 %% grace notes collide with the triplet beam here: gis'8[ cis''] \appoggiatura{ gis'16[

Ties and Accidentals

2007-01-01 Thread Robert Edge
Can anyone recommend a more elegant way to force the second of a pair of tied notes to display an accidental? I have been using constructions such as this: \score{{ #(set-accidental-style 'forget) \clef bass << { \override NoteHead #'transparent = ##t \override Stem #'t

how do I change enharmonic spellings produced by the /transpose function?

2013-04-13 Thread robert edge
I write music that is not strictly tonal, and years ago I adopted the convention of always using the same enharmonic spellings. So my chromatic scale goes: c cis d ees e f fis g aes a bes b. I never write something like an A sharp or a G flat. Of course Lilypond doesn't know about my silly ideas

getting ties to NOT avoid accidentals

2015-09-02 Thread robert edge
Let's say I have something like: { \clef bass cis1~ cis!1~ cis!1 } I want all the accidentals to appear and I do not want the tie to be moved really far away like it is now. I preferred a few versions ago when it would go right through the accidental. I realize this is arguably crude and will m

hey there, So this: \score{ \new StaffGroup << \new Staff { \bar ".|:" c'1 c'1 \bar ":..:" c'1 c'1 \bar ":|." } \new Staff { \bar ".|:" c'1 c'1 \bar ":..:" c'1 c'1 \bar ":|." } >> } does what I would expect to do, the repeat bar lines are drawn across the enti

So there is a snippet here: http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=1032 That gets pretty close. I am assuming that no one writes that much scheme code unless the functionality is broken in Lilypond proper. I'll prepare a bug report. ___ lilypond-user maili
