Swapping two notes

Back to Lily after some years away from use. In this TTBB snippet, how do I swap the 2 near-clashing notes (bass & baritone) at note 3 in the middle bar in this image? Is there some keyword I should look for in the manuals? Apologies if I’ve broken any convention about attaching files, not

Yes, but it's a factor of a million, not a thousand, so sleep 0.00025 would be appropriate as a replacement for usleep 250. Any short sleep is ok at that place of the script  ... Knut ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org

Wonderful! So, if I understand correctly, the optional argument is the index number (starting at 0) of the notes in the chord? While I can see that may be useful, personally I would prefer to rearrange the chord order... Thanks, Edward -- Dr. Edward Neeman Adjunct Instructor, South

How about a StaffGroup containing a single Staff?

Hello folks, In the code below, the structure of the two StaffGroup's is similar, with the second one having but one Staff in it. Yet the latter doesn’t get a brace as the first one does. Commenting the second \new StaffGroup out altogether, thus bringing the Pauke \new Staff at the same level

The quick and dirty solution would be this code: https://code.google.com/archive/p/lilypond/issues/794 Surely it can be improved by tweaking the scheme function to avoid using extra-offset. \version "2.19.80" \score { << \new Staff { \grace { \override Score.Arpeggio.positions =
