Hello--
Here's a question that refers specifically to multi-voice scores. I'm
running Lilypond 1.4.13 on a modified RH 7.2 distro.
I wrote a quartet score using the two-file technique detailed in the
manual (os-music.ly, os-score.ly), using a little additional help from
the opus-130 example included with the source. Everything works fine,
including part extraction, but there's one thing that I cannot seem to
do. I'd like to put the usual sort of performance indication at the
beginning ("Allegro," for example), but have it appear only above the
orchestra staff in the full score while appearing in each extracted
part. If one puts it in the\notes for each voice as a text grob attached
to a note or rest, it of course appears above every voice in the score,
which looks silly. On the other hand, this is the only way I know of to
have it appear in an extracted part.
Is there a way to put such an indication in the "global" settings along
with key and meter? I notice that there is an attempt to do something
this in the opus-130.ly, but it does not appear in the printout at all.
It reads:
\property Voice.TextScript \set #'font-style = #'large
s8^"Allegro assai"
As I said, this has absolutely no effect on the Postscript result at
all; it's as if it never existed, at least on my setup.
Such a capability should also include the potential for changes, such as
a section in a new tempo. In the "global" list I guess it would appear
as a \skip.
Thanks so much.
Carter
