Re: flats and sharps as symbols in a lyric text

It bugs me a bit that macros are needed to tweak the spacing of accidental symbols in markup. Shouldn't the default markup commands for accidental symbols have correct size and spacing? On Tue, Nov 5, 2019 at 4:02 PM Kieren MacMillan < kieren_macmil...@sympatico.ca> wrote: > Hi Saul (et al.), >

Re: flats and sharps as symbols in a lyric text

I usually just type the accidental signs as Unicode characters. I find the sizing and alignment works better than with the Lilypond markup commands. On Tue, Nov 5, 2019, 3:32 PM Karsten Reincke wrote: > Dear friends; > > does anyone know how I could insert a (double) flat or a (double) sharp in

flats and sharps as symbols in a lyric text

Dear friends; does anyone know how I could insert a (double) flat or a (double) sharp in a lyric text (or stanza or anywhe else) to comment a chord representation? Many thanks for your help Karsten -- Karsten Reincke/\/\ (+49|0) 170 / 927 78 57 Im Braungeröll 31 >oo<

Re: Graphic lines create

Hi All, As I mentioned above, if you use PostScript it wont output to SVG. The OP says his requirement is SVG output, so it is no use giving him PostScript pointers. Reggie, if you can accept normal PDF output then it's OK. Andrew

Re: Graphic lines create

There's a markup function that could help: \draw-squiggle-line (see: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/graphic) E.g. a little heavy but works: \version "2.19.83" %#(set-global-staff-size 40) vib = \markup\concat \override #'(thickness . 2) \override #'(angularity . 0.9)
