Re: Accidentals problem

[Graham Breed]

Following my last message, this is how to get a letter from an
arbitrary font as an accidental:

\version "2.12.1"
\paper{
#(define fonts (make-pango-font-tree "Century Schoolbook L"
                                     "URW Palladio L"
                                     "DejaVu Sans Mono"
                        1))
}
 AuflB = \markup {
 \override #'(font-family . sans) b}
 \relative c' {
 \voiceOne

 \once \override Accidental #'stencil = #ly:text-interface::print
 \once \override Accidental #'text = #AuflB
 \once \override Score.AccidentalPlacement #'right-padding = #0.5
 < a d' bes'! b'! e''>
 }

It works as long as you didn't want a sans font anywhere.
