Scheme function for alternate tagged swing stopped working

I wrote a function \sw, against LilyPond 2.12, a while back. It takes music as an argument, and returns two copies of the music, one tagged 'layout and one tagged 'midi. The 'midi tagged one has eighth notes changed to quarter-eighth triplets (i.e., swung). I’ve run it through convert-ly a coupl

Re; Volta problem

I'm resetting a cello part for a student everything works except the last 3 measures. The 1st ending should be after the tied g2. ~ g and it's not. What have I got wrong? I've always hated this 'volta' thing I wish one could just somehow put these endings in with \markup because I'm not intere

First time Voices user

So, I'm trying out voices for the first time, switching a piece I had written using chords for single staff polyphony to using voices. In the process I have run into a couple of things I don't understand: 1) Some notes that don't collide (to my eye), are getting shifted as if they did. When

Re: Adding text below the staff

Adding text below the staff
