Re: A Chord Question
Harm, I read the docs as suggested by Nathan, and discovered other things of value. But the exact solution evaded me. You have suggested my next area of exploration. Looks promising. Thanks!

A Chord Question
Using the \chordmode function, when I enter a:m7.5- I get as shown in the documentation. The guitarist in our group would very much like to stay with the notation he is used to. Namely . Is it possible to pursuad chordmode to produce this, or do I have to use \markup as I have been doing. Or perhaps there is another method. The problem with markup, is that the notation is always a bit out of line with the rest of the chords, and when a chord is required where there is no note to attach it to, it cannot be properly placed. The markup chords do not play on the midi either, though this is of minor importance to me right now. Any guidance would be appreciated.

yet another chord question
I'd like to have a chord that is C-10. I have myChordDefinitions = { c e g b dis-\markup \super {-10} } And then, of course the requisite myChordExceptions = #(append (sequential-music-to-chord-exceptions myChordDefinitions #t) ignatzekExceptions) myChordInit = { \set chordNameExceptions = #myChordExceptions } I have my very simple input file of Chord = \chords { \myChordInit c:9+ } music = { c'2 } \score { \Chord \music } So why is the output not changed? The chord name chart shows me that c e g b dis is a #9 chord. What I see is the default output of a #9 chord. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

I usually use deutsch.ly and the source I copied was from the documentation. The output is the same between c e g b dis and c e g bes dis, it was the c e g b dis' that mattered. I don't know why, but it's apparently important. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
