I'm trying to find an example image, but most of the ones I can find don't have other staves going at the same time to show the spacing I want. I want the spacing to look something like:
<< \oboe \relative c' { s4 \times 3/4 { d4 ef8[ fs gf as bf cs]\glissando } | d'1 | } >> (using the variable from my earlier example) The trouble is I don't want the tuplet or those note values, and I want the latter six notes to be grace notes. Does that make sense? Thanks for responding!
