Hi list ! I'm using lily2.4 on XP. I have to put a rcomma AND a fingering on the same note. I'de like to have the fingering just on top of the note, but the rcomma just on the right, so at a different level. I make : \once \override TextScript #'extra-offset = #'(2.2 . -2) c8.^2 ^\tr. The

Hi list. On XP lily2.4.2, I use to define : tr = \markup {\musicglyph #scripts-rcomma} and make : \once \override TextScript #'extra-offset = #'(2.1 . -1.7) a8^\tr, for example, which puts a comma just after the note (ancoent way to indicate a trill in baroque music). the thing is that I

Now I realize that my previous answer wasn't completely correct, since you had defined your own macro for this articulation. Since you used \markup, the layout object is indeed called TextScript and nothing else. The extra-offset property specifies how you want to move the object relative to its

I have to admit I had to do some trial and error to get this right. Of course, the easiest solution is what Michiel proposed, namely to concatenate all the music into a single Voice context and all text into a single Lyrics context: \score { \context Voice = allparts {\parta \partb }

Score with separate title page

I'm using Lilypond 2.4.2 on WinXP. I would like to add a separate title page and a page of notes in front of my score, so that, when printed, the score starts on page three. I see that this could be done using Lilypond-book, but I would think that the printed output might be degraded due to
