Tikz(or any) integration or drawing curved arrows

2012-11-15 Thread Stretto
I would like to draw some curved arrows between notes, sort of like slurs that have arrow tips at the end. It would be even better if I could actually integrate tikz code and each musical element be treated as a node... this way I could leverage the power of tikz to draw non-musical symbols and gra

The main issue is not an overlay but lilypond actually exporting the node information to be used in tikz. Each note, for example, would need to be wrapped in a node. What this allows is tikz to use the notes instead of absolute coordinate. Possibly all that is needed is for lilypond to export the

Basically exactly what I said... I never said tikz couldn't use absolute coordinates but it would not be fun to try and use to overlay graphics on a lilypond score. There would be a lot of trial and error, and given the compilations times are not instant this would take quite a long time to get rig
