Hi Ming, when you have the \change Staff already (as adviced in another mail on the list), what you need here is \showStaffSwitch: For example: \version 2.18.2 \new Staff = up { \showStaffSwitch a1 \change Staff = down c''1 } \new Staff = down { \voiceTwo c'1 c'1 } HTH Joram

manually set visual size of a measure

Hello hello, While I wan’t my time signature to stay the same I would like to manually set the length of a measure. In the example I attached measure 13 is visually longer then 14. But lilypond did this automatically. I want to change this manually. Would be great if any of you can help me!

Hi Andrew, It seems frustrating to be defeated by a composer with a pencil and a ruler. Only if you think computers are better than humans… ;) In any case, why not just have a second voice with a hidden MultiMeasureRest, and force the length (x-extent) of that? I’ve used that trick many

Hi John, The above problem has been solved, however, I have inherited a new one! All of this would be likely be solved if you added a new header variable for logo and then redefined the title markup(s) accordingly.

The latest version I could find that displayed add9 for 9^7 is 2.14.2. Somewhere between that and 2.16.2 we lost the ability. I tend to think of this as a regression bug, although an old one. c:9^7 is not the same as c:9. As I use add9 a lot I would like to see this function restored. Should I

It doesn't count as a regression for us, since it's too old: it would only be a regression if it was working in 2.16 or 2.18. Please do post to bugs. Images could be helpful. -- Phil Holmes - Original Message - From: Knute Snortum To: lilypond-user@gnu.org Sent: Monday,

2014-12-08 Thread tisimst
Hwaen, Unfortunately, the double-flat is not a composite of two single flats, at least not in LilyPond. It is a single character and, thus, there is no spacing to adjust. I suppose you could re-code the accidental engine to use two single flats, but that's probably more than you wanted deal
