[] a16 a8. a16 Try a8. a16[ a8. a16] and then please read the tutorial from the beginning to the end even if you skip paragraphs which are not directly relevant to your needs. And make some simple music at first, just as an exercise, use a couple of hours on, say, a page of 16 or 32 bars melody with extras, be it chords or text. Then, when you want to do something more complicated find out from mutopia.org which examples are closest to what you want. There will be many pieces of music which may take a very long time to enter if you have to make tweaks - and learn it at the same time! /Regards (Added cc: to the list so others would know that you have got some kind of answer.) -- donald_j_axel(at)get2net.dk -- http://d-axel.dk/ _______________________________________________ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
