Re: How do I use \tag?

[Pierre Perol-Schneider]

Hi, Does this help ?

\version "2.18.2"

bla = \markup{Bla}

melody = \relative c'' {
  c4 d e f ^\bla
  c4 d e f \tag #'a {<>^\bla} % (1)
  c4 d e f \tag #'a {<>^\bla} % (2)
  c4 d e f \tag #'a {<>^\bla} % (3)
}

\keepWithTag #'a \melody

\removeWithTag #'a \melody

Cheers,

Pierre

Hello!

Here on the list you showed me that I can better re-use my lilypond-code
by using \tag s. Wonderful :) It's only - I don't understand how. given
this very simple piece of code:

\version "2.18.2"

bla = \markup{Bla}

melody = \relative c'' {
  c4 d e f ^\bla
  c4 d e f \tag #'a {^\bla} % (1)
  c4 d e f \tag #'a ^{\bla} % (2)
  c4 d e f ^\tag #'a {\bla} % (3)
}

\score {
    \new Staff { \melody }
}




I get these errors:

Processing `/home/markus/chor/lilypond/tags.ly'

    \new Staff { \melody }

As you see, I'm more or less guessing around. I somehow expected (1) to
work and really can't see what to do. Could you give me a hint, please?
