Thanks all for help. It's starting to look quite nice. With a hidden note, one of the en-dashes is nicely placed between words, and not under a note. Pretty much as I hoped it would look. With some a
Have you tried with another eps file? I tried your exact code, just substituting another eps file I had on hand, and it builds without error: \version "2.13.17" { c''4-\markup { \epsfile #X #10 #"Bac
Mats, Thanks for the pointer. Somehow, I think of better search terms when I know there's something to find. The discussion that I found shows how to merge full- and multi-measure rests explicitly, w
This question has been discussed several times on the mailing list. If you search the archives, I'm sure you can find relevant information also for multi-measure rests. /Mats

Thanks for all suggestions and ideas. However, I think that the main answer to my initial question was given by Valentin in http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2008-11/msg00048.html For u

It seems to me that Valentin's solution is unnecessarily complicated. Why add the system start delimiter engraver on the Staff, when you can use the existing one at the Score level? \version "2.11.35
Dear Mats thank you for your kind reply and sorry for my late response. The example you provided does indeed work nicely for monotonic voices. However, it appears it does not work for chords %% !! ca
Quoting Tim Reeves <address@hidden>: Alan, It looked like no one else responded to you, so I'll give it a go. It looks like your problem is not with Lilypond, but with Ghostscript. I don't this so. I
If you use version 2.11, please note that this is one thing that has changed, so please use the corresponding definitions from ly/property-init.ly as a starting point. If I remember correctly, conver
Hi, I have tested now both 2.10.33-1 and 2.11.38-1 and result was exactly the same. Ozgur -- "Linux Rulez!..." http://xceptn.blogspot.com/ To send encrypted message http://www.xceptn.com/xceptn.gpg
This looks very weird. I've never seen exactly this problem before, but it looks as if the font metrics information is lost so that LilyPond thinks that the characters have zero width. I assume you h

I just tried your example with versions 2.10 and 2.11. Version 2.10 gives a closed bracket, so this seems like a regression bug in 2.11. /Mats the following code results in an unclosed first volta br
