Hi, I've got a score with a treble and bass part and three verses worth of lyrics in between. Is there some simple way to make the middle set of lyrics a different colour or bold or underlined -- anything to make it easier to keep track of which verse? It's made more complicated since we're a

Add another +1! With a Gregorian chant caveat or two... When using modern notation for Gregorian chant tunes, Lilypond sometimes gets confused and allows a line to run off the page. When this happens, I insert a "visual break" as needed, and then adjust at the end. I find that inserting a

Hi, My sincerest apologies for this oversight. This version of the code seems to implement a Vaticana Staff, but the basic problem remains the same: \version "2.19.42" cue = \relative c' { g'4 a b d } \score{ \new Staff \relative c' { c4 d e f \new CueVoice {\set instrumentCueName = "Cue"}

As David writes, the syntax is correct in writing as you do, but the result is quite different from what you intend. Test with a simple example, and you will find out. You will see that time has been multiplied, but not the note or rest itself. The only exception is the R1, the multi-measure

Hi Dan, you can create an additional voice with invisible notes and make the voiceFollower do the work for you. By that, you don't have to find coordinates by trial-and-error, and the dashed lines will adapt to any layout changes. %
