Hi Robin, Thanks for the reply. That clears up some things, but I'm still a little confused: let's say I open up the IR, start in the Voice context, and click the layout object TieColumn. Now at the bottom of the TieColumn page, it says, "This object supports the following interface(s)..." and there's the grob-interface. I previously thought that everything listed under the grob-interface would be common to all grobs, so that if you know something is a grob, you also know definitively that you can make it invisible with 'transparent, for example. But since that's not the case, why does it say "This object supports..." at the bottom of the page for the object? Does that mean they are available but not necessarily implemented? > The file define-grob-properties.scm lists about a dozen > grobs which do: Beam, Stem, Slur, TupletBracket, among > others, but not TieColumn.

I finally found a solution by just using a sextuplet in the right hand as well, and hiding the notes but leaving the ties. tieWaitForNote is very handy. -Jonathan _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
