Re: Changing music font for one notehead

[Calvin Ransom]

Hi Robert,

The attached jpg. is what I get when I use that exact snippet (minus the font override) within frescobaldi, notice how there is no notehead.

Can you send me what the output it loads for you?

\version "2.22.0"
\paper {
  #(define fonts
     (set-global-fonts
      #:music "lilyjazz"
      )
     )
}
\score{
  \drummode {
    \override NoteHead.style = #'cross
    cab1:32\fermata
  }
}

Confused,

Calvin

Hi Calvin,

I just noticed that your snippet works perfectly if I comment out the line
\override NoteHead.font-name = "emmentaler”

So, it seems to me that the lilyjazz font does in fact support the cross-style for whole notes. Maybe there’s some other issue in your score?

Best,
Robert
