Re: [Denemo-devel] transposing a score

[Ludo Beckers]

I just asked on the Lilypond forum what people use; text editor, denemo, lilypondtool, frescobaldi, other...
So far there doesn't seem to be a general "winner" in any, and it's good to see it didn't raise a flaming "ours is best" ;-)
but reading your answer here has me popping up the same question in my head again; shouldn't I first learn "basic" Lilypond (with any simple text editor) before continuing with denemo?
The advice you give me is to alter the Lilypond file, which leaves me nowhere since I don't know Lilypond (yet), so I wonder...

You may be better leaving Denemo with the original key and telling
LilyPond to transpose. I have definitely put octave transpositions in
(Directive->print transpositions...) but any other one could be done
with some modification of one of those. LilyPond *will* transpose chord
symbols automatically.
