Aligning Tuplets and Eighth Notes

Hi list, I'm almost positive I've seen a solution to this before, but I can't seem to find the magic search terms to get me what I need. I want to align the third eighth-note of an eighth-note triplet to the second eighth-note of a two eighth-note segment. In the attached example, I want the two E

Including Rests in Horizontal Brackets

Hi everyone, In the attached MWE, I'm hoping to extend the horizontal bracket to the right to include the three remaining whole rests. As it is, Lily is smart enough (darn it...) to stop the bracket at the final notated pitch; but can I force the bracket to extend, or will I have to come up with

Compiling Twice on a Single Page

Hi everyone, Attached is a MWE that you can mostly ignore: it's just c'1 on 8.5x5.5in paper (the top half of a sheet of letter paper). My question is whether or not it's possible, with a single .ly file, to compile this twice on a single sheet of 8.5x11in letter paper; once on the top half,

Cross-Staff Kneed Beams; Nested Voices
