Re: Hide a note inside a drumscore

[Sebastien Richard]

Thanks for your reply

I tried your exemple with the tie which also work great

In the full drumscore the tie gets "pushed" down. I'm trying to figure out a 
way to reposition it but I can't get any command to do so (tried "\tweak 
positions" and "\override Tie.positions")

Any ideas ?


"You are thinking too complicated." ==> it's just an idea, I'm thinking even 
more complicated than that 浪

You are thinking too complicated.

\version "2.24.2"
up = \drummode {
  \slurDown \grace {sn16 sn(} 4
}
\score {
  \new DrumStaff
  << \new DrumVoice { \voiceOne \up } >>
  \layout {}
}

But I consider it very likely that you actually don't want a slur but a
tie:

\version "2.24.2"
up = \drummode {
  \grace {sn16 sn_~} 4
}
\score {
  \new DrumStaff
  << \new DrumVoice { \voiceOne \up } >>
  \layout {}
}

You are thinking too complicated.

\version "2.24.2"
up = \drummode {
  \slurDown \grace {sn16 sn(} 4
}
\score {
  \new DrumStaff
  << \new DrumVoice { \voiceOne \up } >>
  \layout {}
}

The issue you are running into is that overrides won't work on a single item 
when there's more than one of them happening at the same moment in the music. 
As these are (basically) notes within a chord, they're at the same moment. And 
the \hide command is just a shortcut for an override on the grob's Transparent 
property. In the case of simultaneous grobs, you want the \tweak command. 
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.25/Documentation/notation/tweak-and-single

So, your code would become:

\version "2.24.2"

up = \drummode {
  \slurDown \grace { sn16 sn( }  4
}

\score {
  \new DrumStaff <<
\new DrumVoice {
  \voiceOne \up
}
  >>
  \layout {}
}
