On the front page, in Opera on Linux, the word `Reference' overlaps the previous line: http://kainhofer.com/~lilypond/Documentation/user/lilypond/index.html Are you specifying an interline spacing, rather than using the natural one for the font? Peter C

Shrinking to fit on a single page

Hi, I'm trying to typeset a piece, that should fit on a single page. Lilypond keeps trying to put it on two pages. I've put in \paper{ ragged-bottom=##t bottom-margin=0\mm } and measured the system height, and the single system that flows onto page two should fit

Re: various ornaments

Turn after a note I write as: << { c4 d4} \\ {s8. s16\turn s4}>> This *looks* right, (adjust the s8. and s16 to move the turn; they must add up to a crotchet). It doesn;t sound in the MIDI output, and there's no easy way to make it. -- Dr Peter Chubb http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au peterc

instrument name or \markup question

Newbie question, How do I make the "Flute" instrument name appear like the one in the image i.e., along with the 1 2 player information, with the correct alignment. Thanks. http://old.nabble.com/file/p33030134/markup.jpg -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/instrument-nam

Re: instrument name or \markup question

Also, I was able to make it closer to brace by changing the line width in your solution. But, I would like it to be automatic, like I want to left align the name "flute" and right align the "1 2" so that I don't have to worry about the width, if I change the paper size. Is that possible? Thanks.

Re: instrument name or \markup question

Thanks. That worked. However, is there an automatic way to align the content instead of specifying manual numbers? Like how you do in word or even latex. I would like to do something like the following \set Staff.instrumentName = \markup { \column {\null "Flute"} \column {1 2} } and make the f

articulation over several notes

Is there a way to specify articulation over several notes. Eg., relative c' { c d e f | g a b c }. I would like to make the first four notes staccato and the second 4 marcato. Just, clarifying, I understand that I can do c\staccato d\staccato etc. Can I do something like (c d e f)\staccato? Tha

grace note issue/bug

I have a couple of issues with the attached ly file, version 2.14.2: 1. I get the warning "forced break was overridden by some other event, should you be using bar checks?". Hence, I can't add breaks or pagebreaks wherever I want to. 2. A weird pdf when I add a \grace to the first note in the f

Re: grace note issue/bug

Thanks Phil. That fixed it. However, isn't this something that should be done automatically? It becomes a hassle for huge scores e.g., with more that 10 staves. Isn't it hard to add that to each staff and keep track of it in a huge score? Do I have to synchronize it even in the middle of a score?
