Arghh! Tweaks and workarounds!
"For a contemporary glissando from a note, you can use hideNote and
cadenzaOn/Off". Except I've tried it and the side effects have
buggered everything else up !!!
As soon as you start combining voices - like I separate markups, time
signatures, etc from notes - as soon as you put a cadenza in one voice
and not the others, they get out of sync and mess up royally.
So I tried to use a chord with a hidden note, except that it appears
you can't put a rest into a chord ...
What I've done, which works for me, is to use a tuplet instead. imho
this is much better, not least because it doesn't have nasty side
effects.
I attach my little example below, if someone would care to put it in
the manual instead of the one that's there.
{
\once \override TupletBracket.bracket-visibility = ##f
\once \hide TupletNumber
\times 2/3 { r4 \hideNotes c'8\glissando \unHideNotes } c''2->
}
Okay, my example is to a note, not from, but when you're trying to do
a score, or multiple instruments where some have "contemporary
glissandi" and others don't, the example in the manual is going to
cause grief. This version doesn't have side-effects.
Cheers,
Wol
