Re: Change the duration of a chord defined as a variable

[paolo prete]

David, 

I wonder if is there another solution for obtaining the same result, because the discussed one is too much unstable. Here's the template, below.

I googled how to change a chord duration, but I found nothing.

%%%%%%%%%%%%

chord = <f' a'>4 -> \mp

newChord =

{

  % .... add \chord with a new fixed duration and with its articulations

}

....

I was thinking about taking the articulations from each NoteEvent of the chord, iterating with a (map (lambda (x) ....), and putting them into a new list, but it seems overkill to me...

What do you think?

Thanks for your help

It works in master in that \mp ends up in the _expression_, but indeed it
does so as a note articulation rather than a chord articulation, and
LilyPond just drops \mf on the floor in that position.  Sorry for that.
