Re: help with tuplets

[Mark Polesky]

For what it's worth, you can change the tuplet
number with this command:

\override TupletNumber #'text = "2"

Here's the example:

----------------------------------------------------

\version "2.11.62-1"

duplet = \once \override TupletNumber #'text = "2"

\new Staff \with { \remove Time_signature_engraver }
\relative e {
  \tupletUp
  \override TupletBracket #'bracket-visibility = ##t
  \set Timing.defaultBarType = #"dashed"
  \override Staff.BarLine #'gap = #0.5

  \clef bass
  \time 4/4
  \times 2/3 {e8 e d}
  \times 2/3 {e4 f8}
  \times 4/5 {g16 a c b g} r8 g

  \time 5/4
  % extra staff-padding prevents slanted bracket:
  \once \override TupletBracket #'staff-padding = #2
  \times 2/3 {d'8 c b}
  \duplet \times 2/3 {a4 g8} f4
  \duplet \times 2/3 {g8 f e}
  \times 2/3 {d4 c8}
}
