Re: Grace Note Thickness

[Pierre Perol-Schneider]

Please forget question 1), my mistake.

Infact, for some reason beams appears thicker in tabstaff.

But what about question 2) ?

Hi Groups,

few months ago Thoms Morley (found thanks too Google) sent this code, wiche works fine :

\version "2.14.2"
%\version "2.15.20"

music = \relative c' {
        \grace { d,16 [des] } c4
}
\score {
        <<
        \new Staff { \clef "G_8" \music}
        \new TabStaff {
                \tabFullNotation
                %\revert TabVoice.Flag #'transparent % comment in with "2.15.20"
                \music
        }
        >>
        \layout {
                \context {
                        \TabVoice
                        graceSettings = #`((Voice Stem length-fraction .5)
                                           (Voice TabNoteHead font-size -4)
                                           (Voice Beam beam-thickness 0.1))
                }
         }      
}

Now I would like to understand this :

1)

\version "2.15.39"

music = \relative c' {
        \grace { d,16 [des] } c4
}
\score {
        <<
        \new Staff { \clef "G_8" \music}
        \new TabStaff {
                \tabFullNotation
                \revert TabVoice.Flag #'transparent
                \music
        }
        >>
        \layout {
                \context {
                        \Score
                        graceSettings = #`((Voice Stem length-fraction .5)
                                           (Voice TabNoteHead font-size -4)
                                           (Voice Beam beam-thickness 0.1))
                }
         }      
}

affect both staff and tabstaff grace notes (see *3.png)

BUT, when thickness is increased :

\version "2.15.39"

music = \relative c' {
        \grace { d,16 [des] } c4
}
\score {
        <<
        \new Staff { \clef "G_8" \music}
        \new TabStaff {
                \tabFullNotation
                \revert TabVoice.Flag #'transparent
                \music
        }
        >>
        \layout {
                \context {
                        \Score
                        graceSettings = #`((Voice Stem length-fraction .5)
                                           (Voice TabNoteHead font-size -4)
                                           (Voice Beam beam-thickness 0.45))
                }
         }      
}

affect ONLY tabstaff grace notes.  (see *4.png)

2) if I change, for example, (beam-thickness . 0.48) to (beam-thickness . 0.58) in the define-grobs.scm file this DOES NOT affect grace notes.  (see *5.png)

Thanks in advance
