Re: change notehead without changing duration

[Jeffrey Trevino]

Huzzah! Like a charm. A sort-of related question: Is there a straightforward tutorial somewhere about creating custom noteheads and flags? There's a good snippet about new flags, but I have yet to see something about creating new notehead sets with Scheme. 

thanks for your help,
Jeff

Seems like a4*2 and a2*1/2 are a bit simpler to use.
