Re: Cadenza Senza Tempo Problem

[Shane Brandes]

\once \override TrillSpanner.extra-offset = #'(0 . -0.2)  That will help with the vertical position somewhat cumbersome as you must guess the offset value.

you can also define a function, which you can invoke where needed.

trillArrow =
\once \override TrillSpanner.bound-details.left.text = \markup {
  \concat {
    \musicglyph #"scripts.trill"
    \translate #'(0.5 . 1.0)
    \fontsize #-4
    \with-dimensions #'(0 . 1.2) #'(0 . -2)
    \↓
  }
}

That should get you going in the right direction.

regards,

Shane

Hello list. I am struggling with this. Please don't laugh I just feel like
crying I cannot see what is right in front of me I must be. I am attempting
to learn more deeper in lilypond and try a cadenza sort of passage. I see
two problems I am bad at. One, how do I get the trills to be side by
alongside? Two, I can't understand how to make piano empty system end at the
same location vertical as the trill staff? What is the secret I feel so
stupid. Thank you for your kind help. Is there any details about working
with free music cadenza pieces? I've read the documentation section on
cadenza mode but not in practice I'm struggling.
