Hi all,
starting a score with an \acciaccatura gives unintended results in
the following example on my machine:
\version "2.13.23"
\score {
\new PianoStaff { <<
\new Staff { \clef G \acciaccatura { c'16[ c'16] } c'16-> r8. }
\new Staff { \clef bass c4 }
>> }
\layout {}
}
As the acciaccatura seems to be "before" the first beat, the \clef
command for the bottom staff is processed *after* the acciaccatura,
resulting in the bottom system being initialized with a G clef.
The following workaround works here, but that I find that rather
awkward:
\version "2.13.23"
\score {
\new PianoStaff { <<
\new Staff { \clef G \acciaccatura { c'16[ c'16] } c'16-> r8. }
\new Staff { \clef bass \grace { s16 s16 } c4 }
>> }
\layout {}
}
Are there any better (cleaner) ways to do it?
Not as far as I know. Your solution coincides with the "Known issues and warnings" section of the manual's description of grace notes.
