Hey people, I have vocal pieces which have all fermatas in all voices so that I can print each voice alone. But for a reduction to a 2-staff system I only want the Soprano and Bass fermata visible (top first and bottom of second staff) but not the inner ones. Do you know a way to do that? I

I hope this will be a quick answer. I am currently preparing scores, vocal SATB, but the publisher thinks the Bass staff stem length are not long enough. Is there a way to keep the auto-length but increase the length by, maybe, a percent value? I think I need around 105 or 106 percent of the

An important but unasked question is for what do you need notation? If it is just transcribing from paper the task is not that critical. You need to get in information you already know. But if you compose or arrange and you are not a conservative person who was taught to repeat the sentence real

What a great example of how Lilypond saves the day. In my eyes thats exactly the reason why Lilypond exists, because it usually knows better how to do things. Janek and Bill are correct: Removing the ties is the correct musical/notation decision. A tie and two syllabes are mutually excluisve.

But it rather common _not_ to write the bar lines _inside_ of the staffs (where they would have to cross the occasional note), but between the staffs. The snippets for ancient music have an example, but I can't quite figure out what produces the in-between bar lines. -- David Kastrup

Its even easier. You don't need to create global. The global method has the problem that you need to fill in all these skips. Instead, place this before the first note in any staff: \override Score.BarLine #'transparent = ##t and as last item, in any staff again: \revert Score.BarLine
