It will be interesting to see if it works in this example where there is more than one tie at a time. That potentially answers half my question. I wonder if anyone knows how to alter the curve of the ties in this situation. Oh dear, but you are asking for it ! If one is adept with scheme, some

position of the little '8' in bass clef

2011-04-03 Thread Arlin
The bass recorder reads bass clef, but it sounds an octave higher than written, so the clef needs a little '8' over it. In Lilypond this is \clef F^8 But the little '8' is printed way above the clef. Is there a way to lower the '8' to right above the clef? Thanks for any help. -- View this
