Hello,
I also use my own font. I am no programmer, so I use skips with the chords
attached as TextScript.
Maybe it would really be nice to have different Chord symbol solutions
available since there's not standardised way to do it.
For example a major 7 chord can be written the following ways:

Hehe, I found out there is a really simple solution of how to make stems
look nice in acroread.
In all its simplicity, add
\paper {
blot-diameter = 2 \pt
}
:-)
Now all stems appear to have same thickness in acroread.
Unfortunately it does not work

pageBreak should include a bar check by default. Anyone for a patch?
You may want to force a line or page break in the middle of a bar, using
the \bar trick. So we should not add a barCheck to pageBreak.
I know, but people that need such

Why not write them as a lyrics line (with explicit durations on each

Hi,
Is there a reason the nibbed output of draw-line is almost 20 times
thicker than usual (rather than just 2 times thicker like the rest of
the TextSpanner)?
This is classical typography, evidently!
;)
I think you are have found a bug;
Try to write it as a separate \score { } block.
In printed music, I often see the coda system at the end of a piece
on its own line and indented.
In Lilypond, I can place the coda symbol and break the line,
but how do I indent the system? Can't figure it out.
Thanks!

Hello Everyone,
Since yesterday I also found that there are several kinds of horizontal
brackets: volta brackets, mensural ligature brackets, analysis brackets,
the \hbracket markup command (well, that puts a second bracket, but in
reversed direction), measure group brackets, piano pedal

Hello,
thank you. Actually I'm using the stable version (2.10.10 as far as I
know), and I don't really want to change it to a version under
development unless I'd be really forced to do that. Don't you have some
idea that works also with the stable version? (I tried both, but they
didn't

Hello,
the problem is that I can't figure out how to set up the #'edge-text
property to draw the lines (the markup doesn't accept the draw-line
command, and it's not included in the list of valid markup commands for
2.10.10). Now I've spent at about an hour with adopting the code that I
got
Dear Readers,
\header {

subtitle = \markup \tiny \italic { \right-align { From \Jane Pickerings

But the tekst stays in the center, what could be a solution?

hi,
try the fill-line command instead of right-align:
\header {
title = Old dance
subtitle = \markup \tiny \italic { \fill-line { From \Jane Pickerings
lute book\} }
}
you just have to add an empty string which will be on the left edge of the page.

From that idea, I get this ugly solution
After applying the idea to some chords I'm sorry to say that it is
usable only for the simplest cases. As soon as there are more
accidentals it fails miserably because accidentals are either shifted
too much to the left or even disappearing (this seems

that this would be relatively easy, although you might have to move

see...

Hi Adam,
There's a way to turn LilyPond markup commands like \draw-line into
Scheme expressions; the method is documented in 12.4.1 Markup
construction in Scheme in the 2.11 version of the manual; and I think
the concept is exactly the same in 2.10.
So maybe this will work ...

Dear Users,
I'm engraving a score that has several microtonal accidentals of 1/6

short deadline for this work, so I don't think I could put this wish
