## Rhythm stuff
### Setting beat divisions
\overrideTimeSignatureSettings
4/4 % timeSignatureFraction
1/4 % baseMomentFraction
#'(3 1) % beatStructure
#'() % beamExceptions
\time 4/4
\repeat unfold 8 { c8 } |
\revertTimeSignatureSettings 4/4 % reverts to defaults
\time 4/4
\repeat unfold 8 { c8 } |
### Pickup measure
\time 3/4
\partial 8
e8 | a4 c8 b c4 |
## Output formats
### Images (PNG/SVG)
lilypond --svg file.ly
lilypond --png file.ly
It's useful to have these cropped:
lilypond --svg -dcrop file.ly
Will output both an A4-sized file.svg, and the cropped file.cropped.svg.
Suppress the non-cropped output with `-dno-print-pages`.
### MusicXML
Not supported natively, but the `python-ly` package on `pip` has experimental
support.
ly musicxml file.ly
## Notation
Tie:
a~ a
