Re: Piano and Solo

[Tomas Valusek]

Hello,

I played a little with my example and things are getting slightly more 
complicated, because a \layout block of my example contains folowing line:

\override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-1 . 1)

So if I use your \with statement, the \layout overriding is applied 
instead of the \with one. What now?

Tomas Valusek

P.S.: In attachement there is modified version of my Piano and Solo attempt.
