ve to offset an estimated position. How could you do that if you don't know this estimated position? Best, P On Wed, Jan 15, 2020 at 10:46 PM Aaron Hill wrote: > On 2020-01-15 1:21 pm, Paolo Prete wrote: > > Without a proper behavior of the "\offset" command yo

eally* happy to find a way to use this properties. They are essential for the automatic avoid-collision algos. On Wed, Jan 15, 2020 at 10:57 PM Paolo Prete wrote: > I quote Carl's words: > > "So offset applies to the *estimated* position, and then the spacing > engine work

Re: Distance of a grob from its reference point

you can measure the offset with a ruler (in a very uncomfortable way, though, given that you have to offset the ruler as well with the ref point of the grob). Thanks, Paolo On Wed, Jan 15, 2020 at 11:55 PM Carl Sorensen wrote: > > > > > *From: *Paolo Prete > *Date: *Wednes

Re: Distance of a grob from its reference point

Yes, but, it's necessary too to add a *warning* on the Lilypond output. This is much more clear for the user than the documentation. On Thu, Jan 16, 2020 at 1:12 AM Carl Sorensen wrote: > > > > > *From: *Paolo Prete > *Date: *Wednesday, January 15, 2020 at 4:45 PM >

Override a StaffSymbol property outside \new Staff { ... } context

Hello, is it possible to override a property of StaffSymbol outside a \new Staff \with { ... } context? I would like to obtain something like: %%% #scheme-code-for-overriding-staffsymbol-for-all-the-staves-in-the-score { c' c' c' c' } %%% Thanks
