Re: Notes on wrong side of stem in triads

[Pierre Perol-Schneider]

Hum, well there's another possible workaround, a bad one, but works:

%% Snipp:

\version "2.19"

\relative c' {
  \clef F
  \time 3/4
  \key f\major
  <g bes d>8 <g bes d>16 <f a! c> <g bes d>8[
  <\tweak NoteHead.extra-offset #'(-1.2 . 0)\tweak NoteHead.rotation #90 a c e>]
  <g bes d> <\tweak NoteHead.extra-offset #'(-1.2 . 0)\tweak NoteHead.rotation #90 a c e>
}

HTH,

Pierre

Hi Dan,

At least you'll find a workaround here:

Hi Dan,

One silly question: Does that change anything if you don't force the A natural sign; e.g.:
<g bes d>8 <g bes d>16 <f a c> <g bes d>8[ <a c e>] <g bes d> <a c e>

??

Cheers,

Pierre, I appreciate your stab at a work-around. While the LSR you mentioned does help get all the note heads in the right spot, the major side effect is that the 8th note beams disappear. So that I could “go to press”, I did use that code, however, and graphically inserted some beams into the final PDF. Not ideal, to be sure … but it was better than the alternative!

And no, removing the forced A natural sign doesn’t change anything.

"Minimal example" means that if you remove anything the problem is
gone, so if the code works in what you call a minimal example, that
was *not* a minimal example for your problem: sometimes bugs are
encountered only in long scores.

Davide, I do understand the concept of a minimal example … it’s just that I couldn’t get to that point. I really had tried myriad things to isolate the issue. In the past, I have spent weeks working on some little (but important) problems and usually I find the solution before seeking help from the list. I just didn’t have weeks to spend this time, and this particular problem seemed so random in comparison. If you really want to see the score, send me a private note, but, as I’ve mentioned above, I had to finish it so I could move on to other things. Unsolved mysteries are irksome, though!

Best wishes,

Dan
