RE: Just a fun example of what Lilypond can do

Hi, If you want better control over tuplet brackets and their angles, here's some useful code. You can get the brackets horizontal with little effort using this. [Not my code, but I am unable to recall who created this to acknowledge them.] [Do tell us your name, it would be good and proper.

Just a fun example of what Lilypond can do

No bugs, no problems with this score. Thought I'd just toss this out there to show a neat example of some things Lilypond can do that no other notation program (that I know of -- haven't used SCORE) can do. \version "2.18.2" \header { tagline = "" % removed } indent=0 \layout { %

RE: Lilypond bug "Exited with return code-1073741819" & workaround

Andrew -- Thanks for the suggestion about "minimal working examples." I'm a little puzzled about how I can reduce the size of my Lilpond code. In the example above, for instance, I need at least one full measure of those broken tuplets because anything less doesn't get the numerator and

Mystery empty staves appear on score

Using urs Liska's recommended page break method for ametric scores, got close to a score of simultaneous Nancarrowesque notated accelerations + decelerations with proper page breaks. Mysterious empty staves appear on the pages, though. Not sure why. I can photoshop these out from the lilypond

Lilypond bug "Exited with return code-1073741819" & workaround

This simple example crashes Lilypond. You wouldn't think putting 6 broken tuplets into a measure would make Lilypond stop working, but it does. To get the error Exited with return code-1073741819 uncomment the line % \time 4918233/340340 and comment the lines immediately below \once

Forcing and preventing page-turns

It always seems to be a bit hit-and-miss for me when I try to arrange the pagination of instrumental parts.  Reading the manual it isn't clear to me how I can force page turns to occur *only* at the points I choose. Also, Lilypond doesn't like ending on an even-numbered page.  How can I force it
