Hi Sámuel, > I could not get Kieren's \at method working I apologize: I should have made it clear that what I typed was not a working solution, but rather an attempt (using "pseudocode") to highlight a feature that would be very useful in the situation you were describing. Sincerely, Kieren.

Thanks all, this solved it (although I could not get Kieren's \at method working, it works well with empty chords. Gotta say, really nice community On 13/11/2022 10:16 pm, Jean Abou Samra wrote: Le 13/11/2022 à 21:44, Sámuel Simon-Németh a écrit : \version "2.23.80" \new Dynamics \with { %

Hi Jean, Alternatively, you could attach the dynamic to a so-called "empty chord". The above is equivalent to \version "2.23.80" \new Dynamics {   s1 \p   s \>   s \!   s1*6   <>\mf   s1 } I think we should advocate the "empty chord" style even more consistently (and I have a long standing

Hello everyone! I am starting out with GNU Lilypond, and so far it's been great. However, when I create dynamics for piano using `\new Dynamics`, I obviously need to use spacer rests to put dynamics in the right place. This is all well and good, however my question is: How do I "space out"
