Re: circle around noteheads?

[Mats Bengtsson]

Take a look at the example called boxed-stencil.ly in the Tips and
Tricks document. There is a function called make-stencil-circler
that you can use the same way as make-stencil-boxer.

If you can't figure out the exact \override command you need, you
can find it at the end of this email, but I recommend that you try
to figure it out yourself first. I hope you have read in the chapter
on "Changing Defaults" on how to navigate through the program reference.
