Dear Valentin This is really splendid. Thank you for explaining the limitations of extra-space-height and how to overcome them. I agree that lilypond requires but a small tweak, I'm typesetting some simple chorales at the moment, and there's really very little to tweak! Jakob On

Dear William Thank you for this. The extra-spacing-width option is splendid, but –like you – I like solution #2 better, and it works perfectly! Jakob On 17.05.2023 20.40, William Rehwinkel via LilyPond user discussion wrote: Dear Jakob, It must be a nice /piece d'orgue/ ;) (this has lost

Dear Paul, Thank you for this. I didn't know *1/2 was an option at all. While it's definitely a hack – unashamedly so, even – I'm sure this little trick will come in handy! Jakob On 17.05.2023 20.37, Paul Hodges wrote: In fact Breitkopf's new Bach edition has somewhat more generous spacing

Hello Jakob, try to do something like this: \tweak extra-spacing-width #'(-1.5 . 0) a' this will tell Lilypond to add 1.5 spaces to the left of the stem for spacing. In this case this will work out, but say if the d and the f# the beat before were an octave higher there would be no collision,

Dear Jakob, It must be a nice /piece d'orgue/ ;) (this has lost some of its comedic value as others have already answered) I can think of two solutions to this problem. 1. You can override NoteHead.extra-spacing-width = #'(left . right). For example, #'(-4 . 0) so: % --- leftOne =

In fact Breitkopf's new Bach edition has somewhat more generous spacing that doesn't require a tweak.   Overriding LilyPond's very clever spacing algorithm is a dark art to me.  I'm having to do a lot of it right now, but my approach is unashamedly hacky - but it works for me!  Anyway, my

Moving note in three-voice context

2023-05-17 Thread Jakob Pedersen
Greetings! I'm attempting to move a note horizontally to fix a poorly placed voice-leading line. Breitkopf fixes it by nudging the a following the staff change to the right, and I'd like to copy that. A minimal example from my score: \version "2.24.1" \language "deutsch" global = {
