Yes it's me again...
Still find this tricky... Looks like the grace note problem with beginning a
score with a tuplet is also a problem with using \compressMusic....
I've put in the blank grace notes in the other parts but it doesn't seem to
help..
Any help or hints appreciated yet again.
Trent...

Thanks Mats...
I re-read the section about this and found that the only reference to
\times
was
"The latter is done with \compressMusic, which is similar to \times, but
does not create a tuplet bracket."
To me this doesn't describe very accurately that you use \compressMusic
the
same way as \times but more that it's function output is similar to \times
but no bracket or tuplet number is created. I think the phrase 'similar
to'
is the problem and may it should be changed to:
"The latter is done with \compressMusic, which is entered similar to
\times,
but does not create a tuplet bracket."
Even your reply to me makes more sense of the use of the function
\compressMusic works the same way as \times, i.e. that it only applies to
the music expression after the first argument. In other words, you have to
enclose all the music into curly braces.
Thanks again,
Trent

If you read the manual a bit more carefully, you will notice that
\compressMusic works the same way as \times, i.e. that it only
applies to the music expression after the first argument.
In other words, you have to enclose all the music into curly braces.
The simplest solution in your example, is to reuse the already existing
curly braces that you have for \relative c':
staffFlute = \new Staff {
\time 4/4
\set Staff.timeSignatureFraction = #'(12 . 8)
\set Staff.instrument="Flute"
\set Staff.midiInstrument="flute"
\key bf \major
\clef treble
\relative c'' \compressMusic #'(2 . 3) {
%bar 1
\grace d8 c8.( b16) c8 g'4 ef8 \grace d8 c8.( b16) c8 r r af
%bar 2
g4 af'8 g4 f8 ef( d) c r8 r4
%bar 3
R1.
%bar 4
r4. r4. r4 r8 r8 r8 g'
%bar 5
\grace { g16([ a] } bf4) c,8 c8. d16 e8 \grace g8 f( e) f r r af
%bar 6
g4 e8 c4 bf'8 af( g) f r4 r8
%bar 7
d4. f4. bf, r4 r8
\bar "|."
}
}
(Note also that the full bar rest should read R1. or R1*12/8 since you
are in 12/8.)

Thanks Mats..
I had a look but following the example this doesn't seem to produce
anything
except the 12/8 time signature.
In fact changing the compress music doesn't seem to have any effect at
all.
The example from the manual seems to work.. so I can't see what's wrong
in
the example below...

In addition to Erik's answer, you may want to take a look at
section "8.4.1 Polymetric notation" in the manual.

Hello again,
I'm currently typesetting a trio sonata by Locatelli...
In one movement the the two flutes are in 12/8 time while the
Continuo
part is in Common time.
This is ok I thought I can set the flute parts in tuplets and
fake 12/8 time-signature at the beginning... since essentially this
is
what the composer is doing setting the time signature as 12/8 so the
players wouldn't be overwhelmed with triplets everywhere.
But there is a problem with beginning the first note of the system
with either a grace note or appoggiatura. I get the first bar with
the
grace or appogiatura but then there seems to be a restart of the
systems and the resest of the music continues.
I get the same problem if change the notes to triplet groups as well
i.e. \times 2/3 { } etc.
Platform: Windows XP
Lilypond Version: 2.7.10
Is this a bug? or Is there something I need to do?
Regards,
Trent
