Hi, I'm in need of an idea how to approach this: I need to print a slur over a single note. More concretely there already is a markup with a certain width above the note (see attached image), and I n
Hi again! Can I propose a small modification in the "annotated slur" funcion? annotatedSlur = #(define-music-function (parser location padding text) (number? markup?) #{ \once \override
Hi all, I'm entering a piece which has to be rendered with LilyPond 2.18, and I'm experiencing something strange with a broken tie/slur combination. The code is: r8 f, as c f as c f ( %
Hi, I would understand it best if the warning said any of: Cannot attach slur to preceding expression Slur is not attached to note or chord Cannot attach slur to note or chord No note or chord before
