Hello Roland,

It will be easier for the people on this list to help you if you can post an 
image of the score look you’re aiming at.

> I started to encode the Bach's Fugue Nr. IX in Lilypond. I stumbled over a 
> problem which I could not yet (as a beginner) solve. The music is polyphonic 
> with three distinct voices. There is a bass voice, a soprano voice and an alt 
> voice. The alt voice uses both clefs in the piano notation: Tremble (G) and 
> bass (F).
> 
> 1. Do I have enter two voices for the tremble clef and two voices to the bass 
> clef since this alt voice is representedi n both clefs? I would prefer to not 
> having to do this to make the alt separate. It just shares both clefs.
> 
> 2. At three occasions, the alt voice crosses both clefs in the middle and the 
> beam connecting the pitches of this voice must be beween both clefs or also 
> cross the clefs.
> 
> 3. Besides coloring the different voices for better readability, I also want 
> to indicate fingering for each vfoice -- which changes for each voice between 
> left and right hand. How can I indicate which hand to use when a fingering 
> number is assigned? Here, this is quite important as it is not always 
> obvious. I want to either use an indication such as RH or LH (right or left 
> hand), or a certain style or color for the fingering.
