Réf. : Re: Réf. : Re: transparent stems

[Jean-marc LEGRAND]

<<{\override Stem #'transparent = ##t a,2}\\{\override Stem #'transparent = ##t 
c}>> is OK. Thanks !
I use this type of notation for baroc viol music, in which intermediate notes 
in a chord are
stemless.

A setting such as
\override Stem #'transparent =##t
will apply to the current Voice context and does certainly work.
However, in your example, you use the construct
<< {...} \\ {...} >>
which implicitly puts the two lines of music into separate
Voice contexts named "1" and "2", respectively.

The easiest is probably to just keep all the notes in the same
Voice context:
<<{a,2}{c}>> <<{a}{c}>>
Or even write these chords as chords instead of simultanous
voices:
\new Voice \relative c' {\voiceThree
   <a, c>2 <a c>
}


Then, you probably shouldn't even make the stem transparent, since
LilyPond automatically will move the notes to the right in \voiceThree
to make it clear what notes belong where.


If you really want transparent stems and separate voices,
try:
<<{\override Stem #'transparent = ##t a,2}\\{\override Stem
#'transparent = ##t c}>> <<{a}\\{c}>>
Even though I would find it very difficult as a musician to
interprete that notation.
