Done. https://codereview.appspot.com/259710043/diff/1/Documentation/notation/spacing.itely#newcode3490 Documentation/notation/spacing.itely:3490: Or dynamics that @q{stick out} of a system can be moved closer to the staff: On 2015/09/03 09:27:51, pkx wrote:

Yes I'd concur with Dab. I'd simply remove the word 'Or', use a
semi-colon
instead of a full stop and continue with the sentence as it is. We
typically
use a semi colon at the end of 'sentences' that are about to be
illustrated by
an @lilypond example (i.e. instead of the colon you've put here).
A look into the beginning of the NR showed that either a full stop or a colon is being used. https://codereview.appspot.com/259710043/diff/1/Documentation/notation/spacing.itely#newcode3490 Documentation/notation/spacing.itely:3490: Or dynamics that @q{stick out} of a system can be moved closer to the staff: On 2015/09/03 01:28:06, Dan Eble wrote:

I chose ‘As another example,’. It’s plain to me that in this is only one item in the list, with two examples. I think they’re both valuable. https://codereview.appspot.com/259710043/ _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
