Re: trill spanner and bass clef mark interfering; parenthesized noteheads on every notehead of tie; full width trill spanners

[josiah oberholtzer]

Hi Jeff!

I can answer question #1, but not the others:

You need the \clef to happen before the \pitchedTrill, like so:

\new Staff {

    \clef "bass"
    \pitchedTrill
    c'1 ~ \startTrillSpan b'
    c'1 \stopTrillSpan
}

Getting the \clef above the \pitchedTrill command is going to be tricky, but I'm sure we can figure that one out somehow.

Cheers

Hi there,

Three trill questions for you experts:

1) I'm having trouble spanning some notes with a trill spanner when the first spanned note has a bass clef mark attached and the trill spanner has a specified pitch in parentheses --

When my staff looks like,

\new Staff {
    \pitchedTrill
    \clef "bass"
    c'1 ~ \startTrillSpan b'
    c'1 \stopTrillSpan
}

, I get a "b" whole note followed by a "c" whole note, without a trill. But when my staff looks like,

\new Staff {
    \pitchedTrill
    c'1 ~ \startTrillSpan b'
    c'1 \stopTrillSpan

, everything seems to be working fine. What am I doing wrong here?

2) How can I parenthesize my specified pitch by every notehead in a tie chain, if my trill spanner spans multiple noteheads? The current output puts the parenthesized notehead at the first notehead only.

3) How can I get the trill spanner to draw the squiggly line to the right through the full spatial duration of the note? Should I use proportional notation? Or maybe I can set something to do this like I can with full tuplet bracket width?

baffled as usual,
Jeff
