Pedalling in ``Bracket Mode''

Hi All I am having difficulty in following the syntax required in pedalling information. I have followed the manual's recommendations, but am probably messing up big time :-( (I am not familiar with Scheme, just C++, Java, LaTeX, pic etc.) Can anyone help me to get the bracketing correct in

The arpeggio is drawn exactly between the upper and lower note heads of the corresponding chord. There seems to be no property setting to change that. The only solution I could come up with was to add an invisible note (which cannot be in the same ... chord since the new syntax does not allow for

What version of LilyPond are you using? It seems that you use the syntax from Lilypond version 1.6 or older. Are you sure that you read the manual corresponding to the version you use? If you have such an old version of the program, the best thing I can do is to point you to the example files in

The spacing calcluations in LilyPond are quite complex, which hopefully results in a nicer looking default layout than most other programs. Some parameters that can be modified are described in http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.0/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/Horizontal-spacing.html However, you

Lilypond 2.0.1 I've reached my limits. In the following fragment, a clef change occurs after the first note (I'm transcribing an old piece and trying to keep the original stiyle). I've tried everything I know of to lengthen the stems so that the beam clears the treble clef sign. I'd imagine

First of all, your example code doesn't work as you expect, since the \transpose command only transposes the property setting, nothing else (a pair of curly brackets {\property ... \lowerone } solves that or you could interchange the order of the transpose and property lines). Anyway, by default
