That's an easy one, basically an RTFM :)

There are some wrinkles, though. To move a dot, there must be an explicit
"d" (even on a chord note), and the vertical shift must be the next number
after the "d". So that may conflict with your default way of explicitly
indicating the octave.

 

The default position of dots within a staff is always in a space. If the
note is on a line, the default is to move the dot up. That's why all dots
except the one on the c5 were moved, and also why the downward shift has to
be closer to 2 than 1.

 

Why in the world did you set the page height to 50 mm? That caused my first
page to be blank when I viewed this with Ghostview.

Subject: [Tex-music] Shifting dots

 

Hi all, 

in the last chord of the PMX example below the dots are not well positioned.





I would like to shift the dots for c4,e4,g4-flat and b4 a little bit
downwords.

I tried  the recommendations of Cornelius Noack, but they do not seem to
work.

I also wonder why the dot for c5 is on the same level of the note whereas
all the others are higher.

Any body got an idea?

Thanks and regards,
Dieter

Notes on a line are raised by musixtex. Compare the dots on
the G flat and the F in the bass.

According to musixdoc:

  As a matter of style, if two voices share one staff, the
  dots in the lower voice should be lowered if the note is
  on a line. For this you can use \lpt{p} and \lppt{p}.
