Hi, > Have a look at this LSR snippet: http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=642 Yes! That one suffices — and is more elegant — if you don’t need “strange note values” (like dotted notes) in your denominator(s). Cheers, Kieren. Kieren MacMillan, composer ‣

I'm using Mac OS. There are no programs accessing the files. However, I just noticed that everything is alright the first time I render the file. But the second time, when the existing svg file needs to be overwritten, the ps file won't get deleted. When I delete both the svg and the ps, the ps

Re: Rendering cropped SVG

I'm not using any version control here. Notice that the pdf file is deleted correctly all the time, only the temporary ps file stays. And I'm not doing anything with the ps file after summoning Lilypond. I've used Lilypond before without having trouble with the temporary files. I guess I'll
