I wouldn't like to claim authoritative knowledge, but music theory i learnt states that the note tied over keeps the alteration of before. a new bar (for accidentals) starts _after_ any tied notes. so ignore a tied note for accidental usage. i'd typeset a cautionary accidental. however, baroque [and earlier] usage _may_ differ. -- Do not meddle in the affairs of trombonists, for they are subtle and quick to anger. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
