Is there any way to use dynamics as prefixes?

I think it's rather weird that you write `c'4\ff d'` instead of `\ff c'4 d'`. Other constructs such as `\tempo` and `\mark` are before the notes they affect - why aren't dynamics? For a more practical example, playing the same thing multiple times with different dynamics with prefix dynamics

Polymark: draw marks horizontally

I'm using Polymark (LSR 976) to be able to print song names (in medleys), codas, etc. at the same time as rehearsal marks. However, using a `\polyMark Center` (or empty) at the same time as a `\polyMark Left` draws the Left diagonally above the Center (assuming the Left is defined last). I'd

Doing some strange stuff with multi-measure rests

Basically, I want to show a rest with indeterminate length for all parts, except the drumset, which is to make undefined creepy noises, and the cymbal, which should do a drumroll-crescendo (not sure if there's any fancy name for that) before the rest of the parts resume playing. I've attached

Re: Doing some strange stuff with multi-measure rests

Yeah, that seems to work, thanks! I'd prefer if it didn't reduce the left margin, but there's no point in being picky. I guess it can be fixed by tweaking the X-offset and the scaling factor. I'm considering experimenting with modifying the stencil expression itself, though. Getting the

Re: A note which is three measures long

If you want a note that is three *whole notes* long, you could use a dotted \breve. If you want a note that is three *measures*, just use ties. Having notes that cross barlines is just confusing for everyone. On 08/31/17 14:40, Bernhard Kleine wrote: c\breve is two measures long, c\longa four

Re: How to write key change between double barline and repeat barline?

That is indeed a very hacky solution, but it works great. I'll probably want to \tag out the skip during midi generation, though. (It seems using graces also allows you to put multiple \marks at the same moment, which is neat.) For the record, how exactly does that space-alist override work?

Re: midi volume single note

You can change `Voice.midiExpression` (0≤x≤1) in the middle of a note, which changes dynamics/volume. I don't know whether you can do that to one specific note without affecting other simultaneous ones, but you can just create a new voice for that. On 11/13/17 11:16, Gianmaria Lari wrote: > >

Re: DrumStaff vs Staff for instrument name

In `engraver-init.ly` (line 111 on my version), there is a line saying `\alias "Staff"`. That line makes the DrumStaff context listen to `\set Staff.*` as well as `\set DrumStaff.*`. (DrumVoice is similarly aliased to Voice.) They're both equal, so I'd recommend using `Staff.*` for consistency.
