emmentaler font codes

2014-05-16 Thread Richard Shann
I recently added the \repeatTie command to Denemo and LilyPond is displaying this nicely; I would like to show a small horizontal curve in the input display too, but I have searched through the emmentaler font from U+E100 to U+E27C and cannot see the glyph which is typeset via ^\markup

Hi Urs, this constellation compiles, if you wrap the scheme-call to set-global-staff-size into a void-function. But if it is called, when the book is already opened, the staff-size is already initialized and can't be changed (for this book). It probably works, if you place #(set-global-staff-size

Hi Urs, the last statement the include returns is not music: #(ly:set-option 'preview #t) so the parser complains. Those warnings can be avoided with void-functions, which wrap the statement. (A bit in a hurry, so no example for noew ;) ) Cheers, Jan-Peter Am 16.05.2014 12:05, schrieb Urs
