Hi, Han-Wen. You have not missed the patch: I've not yet sent it. The current version works well enough for my immediate needs, but I didn't want to send a patch until I could figure out how to alter the \partcombine behavior on the fly. It could be weeks before I get back to it, so I'll send in what I have tomorrow. Maybe someone else can make use of it or correct its flaws before I can work on it again. Bret PS: someone just asked for my help to generate a piano reduction of a 6-voice polyphonic choral piece for rehearsals. (The poor rehearsal accompanist has to read 6 staves open score, in the key of B, no less: my heart goes out to her!) \partcombine is limited to 2 voices, and 3-voice polyphony per staff is still hard to read. I didn't have time to do a reduction manually (726 measures by tomorrow), so I had to refuse aid on this occasion. But once I've figured out the part-combiner, I suppose I have my next project lined up... _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
