\include command and local network folders

2018-04-12 Thread foxfanfare
Hi everyone, I want to use the /include command to separate my style sheet, as suggested by some of you. I made two files : "test.ly" which contains the music, and "configuration.ily" for my house-style. The files are in the same folder and I can get it easily to work on my local computer drive.

Override music fonts for specific glyphs

2018-04-12 Thread foxfanfare
Hi everyone, I can't figure out very clearly how music fonts work in LilyPond. I installed properly several fonts which I can use easily with the command: \paper { #(define fonts (set-global-fonts … )) That's fine, but is it possible then to change the font for a specific glyph? I

Ottava mark: edge dashed line

Hi everyone, I cannot figure why I cannot change the ottava mark as I'd like. I am interested in using a dashed line, but also for the right edge, as shown in this exemple: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/snippets-big-page.html#text-ottava-text
