Re: How to get a (rhythmic) dot to follow a barline

[David G]

Thanks to everyone - you've been very helpful! I used James' function because it looks a bit more flexible - in case anyone searches for this in future I made a couple of tweaks to hide ledger lines and increase the size a bit:




\version "2.15.39"

tieToDotted =
#(define-music-function (parser location music) (ly:music?)
#{
        \once \override Tie #'transparent = ##t
        $music
        \once \autoBeamOff
        \once \override NoteHead #'no-ledgers = ##t
  \once \override NoteHead #'stencil =
          #(lambda (grob)
            (let* ((staff-pos (ly:grob-property grob 'staff-position))
                   (staff-space (ly:staff-symbol-staff-space grob)))
            (ly:stencil-translate-axis
              (ly:font-get-glyph (ly:grob-default-font grob) "dots.dot")
              (if (even? staff-pos)
                 (/ staff-space 3)
                 0) Y)))
        \once \override NoteHead #'Y-extent =
        #(ly:make-unpure-pure-container
           ly:grob::stencil-height
           (lambda (grob start end) (ly:grob::stencil-height grob)))
        \once \override NoteHead #'X-extent = #'(-1 . 1)
    \once \override NoteHead #'font-size = 3
        \once \override Stem #'stencil = ##f
        \once \override Flag #'stencil = ##f
#})





Thanks!

You could put a dotted note there and make everything except the dot invisible:

\once \override NoteHead #'transparent = ##t
\once \override Stem #'transparent = ##t
\once \override Flag #'transparent = ##t
\once \override Accidental #'transparent = ##t
\once \override NoteHead #'no-ledgers = ##t
