Thanks, the \scale hint was very useful.
Doing it before the \score block isn't convenient as I'd have
to repeat the insertion in every book. Using markup

I'd like to leave some indications (rythmic, mostly)
for bass and guitar at the start of a piece. Right now
I'm doing this with a pencil, but I'm wondering how
to do it with lilypond. It could be a smaller PianoStaff,
on a line by itself. How could this be done ?
Thanks in advance

Yes, but I would ideally use an \override so to keep the

as chord symbols, but the rest of use still want C D E F...
Is it possible, and how, to specify \language only for

I'm buildin
I'd like to use percent signs for chord repeats but
in a \chordmode block the repeats seem to end up being
just not rendered (nothing printed for the repetition
measures).
Is there a way to get those percent signs ?

I like the highlighting idea! Is it compatible at all with 2.18.2 ?
It seems not to be: http://lilybin.com/166vv7/1
In order to determine if I'm writing something that can
be played by an instrument, is there a way to display
on the score the supported range by that instrument ?
I'd like to have something that doesn't change when I
transpose, so to know if transpositions are possible
at all...

I transcribed an A major song with this chords snippet:
ees:m7.5- | aes:7 | aes:m7.5- | des:7 |
When transposing it to Eb major it is rendered as:
Bbbø | Ebb7 | Ebb7sus#4 b3 | Abb7
I don't understand why the third chord (m7.5-)
gets rendered as a "7sus#4 b3" chord, very hard
to read ...

Hi Andrew, that snippet only works if the bar is not followed
by a break, otherwise I get:
warning: forced break was overridden by some other event, should you be using
bar checks?
And the break does
I'm trying to emulate the output in the attached image, but failing to
do so. It is basically a glissando to an unspecified note (hidden?)
during an otherwise rest period of time.
What I tried:
\once \override Glissando #'style = #'zigzag
e4
\glissando
r4 r2
But the glissando

GNU LilyPond 2.18.2, but my files are tagged with \version
I'm producing lead sheets with lyrics, melody and chords
and would like to extract from them som blank sheets with
just lyrics and chords so that players can take their notes

My first attempt has been with using \hideNotes but that one

Hey, I have the exact same feeling. Very obscure way to put chords

How do I put chord symbols in parenthesis, across
two measures ?

You mean that the \version
I've been trying for some time now to align lyrics
to an hidden melody but when I try that all the rests
end up attached to the bottom line of the pentagram,
which looks like a bug in lilypond itself, can anyone
see if that's the case (a bug) or I'm doing something
wrong ?
