This question arises out of a problem I had in the piece I am currently setting.  I have certain marks I wish to appear above a bar-line.  I want one of them to appear only in the lower stave.  In this particular instance I can get the result I want thus: %% \version "2.19.48" \language

Increasing spacing between staves

Is there some way of increasing or specifying the space between the 2 staves of a piano staff at a particular point in a score? The piece I am setting has a lot of cross-staff beams, and sometimes Lilypond does not allow enough space between the staves for a decent- looking beam.  In those cases

Maintaining font-size regardless of staff-size

At the moment I define variables for formatting title, composer etc. at the start of a score separately for each staff-size that I use. A simple question: is there a way of getting the same layout and font- sizes for the opening headings of, say, a part with 20-point staves and a full score with

Form of multi-measure-rests

In a piece which is in 21/8 time (7 dotted crotchets) I find that LilyPond sets whole-bar rests as breve rests.  I should like them to appear as semibreve rests, as they would if the bars were shorter. I have tried modifying the stencil using the method shown in NR5.5.3.  But as it stands this is

Automatic narrowing in Emacs?

This may be slightly off-topic, but it concerns a problem I have encountered in Emacs when editing Lilypond files and at no other time. I always use Emacs for creating and editing my Lilypond files. Some of these get quite large. When editing a very long file (typically over 2,000 lines) I have

Altering page numbers

Judging from all the searching I have done I think that the answer to the following question is "no": is there a way to override automatic page-numbering after the first page? I have several pages of introductory and performance notes in the score I am currently working on, followed by about 150

Getting point-and-click working

I put off trying to get point-and-click for several years (!) until now, because the instructions in the Usage Manual seemed rather cryptic. But point-and-click would be massively useful, so I thought I would try to set it up. I followed the instructions to the best of my limited ability and,

Re: Getting point-and-click working

Thank you all for your help in this matter. Today I have point-and-click working as it should, with AppArmor apparently doing what it is supposed to do. What made the difference was the following: The Usage Manual 4.1.1 says that the lines # For Textedit links

Forcing horizontal space between successive notes

I have various clunky workarounds for this problem, but I am still wondering whether there isn't a neater way. How can one force additional space between 2 successive musical moments in a score, without affecting the spacing algorithm to the left and right? This is occasionally desirable, for

Wow! Two lovely solutions to my little query - both much better and neater than my adjusting the spacing of notes by using invisible meaningless markups with \textLengthOn. -Original Message- From: Lukas-Fabian Moser Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2019 20:15:48 +0100 > > How can one force additional

Re: Acciaccatura distoring spacing

Firstly let me apologise for my stupidity: I am quite aware of the problem with gracenotes after barlines. But in this case, with a normal barline, there wasn't a problem until I started experimenting with SpacingSpanner.strict-grace-spacing. When the problem did arise, it just didn't occur to
