I've tried a couple of these solutions and it the tie displays nicely now. Thanks! I got a related questions about ties and using multiple voices, but I'll post that one in a new separate thread. 2015-10-02 21:14 GMT+02:00 Thomas Morley : > 2015-10-02 20:10 GMT+02:00

Re: Question re title formatting

As you correctly found out, as a matter of fact line breaks will not work in your code. As I did a lot of programming in the past I do not think that is wrong but usually a rule in such code arrangements. Another point is the comment mark "%" that invalidates the rest of the line CR etc.

Ties or multiple voices

I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this question, but I'll post it anyway. I think it has more to do with music notation in general, but after reading a couple of threads, I'm confident some of you would be able to answer the following question about the use of ties or voices. I'm

partcombineApart and combined dynamics

Hi list, I searched the list for a solution but haven’t found one yet. Is there a possibility to have \partcombine combine identical dynamics even when there are automatic or forced polyphonic sections? I’ve tried different things (see attached .ly). I don’t want to simply omit the dynamic of

Some time ago thankfully I got a code to use English language in arabic sheet music instead of italian from Harm (Thomas Morley). (I think he offered the code free for public use? See: https://www.mail-archive.com/lilypond-user@gnu.org/msg103827.html ) I added the code from the description of

I think this got lost in the ether earlier in the week when the lists were down, but someone might find the attached solution helpful. It is good enough for my purposes. Grateful acknowledgments to Pierre Perol-Schneider, Frank Z., and Urs Liska, all of whom unknowingly helped with the solution.

I've been exposed to vi through work, and really failed to see the "thing" that fuels the vi fan club. Actually I can't recall the other side of that turf war, but I know that Notepad is not even a dream in that conflagration. Notepad has it's limitations, but...it's predictable. At least to a
