Re: cant't move a chord

[Stefan Thomas]

Dear Francisco,
maybee I didn't espress clearly, what I wanted.
Here is a little longer snippet, which makes my  intentions hopefully clear:

\version "2.13.0"
  {  \repeat "unfold" 2 {
    \time 4/4 
    R1 | %
    \time 5/4 
    R4*5 | }
  \time 3/4 
   \times 2/3 {
        r8 b8  [ d'8   ] }
    
    \times 2/3  {
        es'8   [ f'8   fis'8   ] }
    \times 4/7  {
        g'16   [ gis'16   a'16   cis'16
          ais'16   b'16   c''16   ] } 
        \time 2/4 
    \times 2/3 { 
        <ais'' dis'''>4 -> \p eis''4  -- <a'' cis'''>8
        -. [ gis''8 -. ] }
% the beginning of this measure looks not good, in my opinion
    
    \times 2/3  {
        <ais'' dis'''>4  -> eis''4  -- <a'' cis'''>8
        -. [ gis''8 -. ] } }

Firstly, why do you want to move the chords? if they have to
vertically (and naturally) synchronised, my advice is to make two
independent staves joined by << >>.

Or, make two scores.

Or, remove the indent of the first staff.
