Hello all,
I'm engraving one of Chopin's nocturnes for Mutopia and I've run into a
couple of limitations that I don't know how to get around.
First off, I have a situation like this:
\relative c'' {
<< { f8 e ~ <c e> <c e> } \\
{ c4 s4 } >>
}
where I need the c4 tied to the c in the first <c e>—in other words, I have
a chord where one note needs to be tied to a note in the same voice and the
other note is tied to a note from a different voice! What's more, I need an
arpeggio to the left of the first notes (the c and the f). How can I
accomplish this?
Secondly, I have a similar situation involving polyphony:
\relative c'' {
<< { a8 d } \\
{ e,8 a } >>
}
where the first a8 needs to be tied to the second a.
Finally, I have a grace note situation like this:
\relative c' {
<< { c4 e g r } \\ { s2 s4 s8 \acciaccatura b8 s8 } >>
\acciaccatura b8 c1
}
where I need both grace notes tied to the c1.
Can anyone help with any of these annoying little problems? Thanks a ton in
advance!
