Hi all, I'm trying to use \partCombine to merge two parts with beamed eighth notes in cadenza mode (see attached). What I want is for the three eighth notes in the lower part to merge into chords with the upper part, but Lilypond doesn't seem to want to do it. When I take out the [ ] beaming marks, it merges the second two notes, but the first one (tied to the previous e-flat) still won't merge with the part above it.
Is there a way to get \partCombine to do this? Regards, Brent. PS: I've noticed that the online documentation still says to use \partcombine with a lower-case "c", but when I try that I get error messages. It only works for me in version 2.22.1 when I use camel case (\partCombine).
\version "2.22.1" global = { \cadenzaOn \key es \major } partOneBeams = \relative c'' { \global g8[ as bes c bes g as] bes4 } partTwoBeams = \relative c'{ \global d es~ es8[ d c] d4 } partOneCorrect = \relative c' { } \score { \new Staff { \partCombine \partOneBeams \partTwoBeams } \layout { \context { \Staff \remove Time_signature_engraver} } }
