aDueText

autoAccidentals
(list)- List of different ways to typeset an
accidental.
For determining when to print an accidental, several different rules
are tried. The rule that gives the highest number of accidentals is
used.
Each entry in the list is either a symbol or a procedure.
- symbol
- The symbol is the name of the context in which the following rules are to be
applied. For example, if context is Score then all
staves share accidentals, and if context is Staff then
all voices in the same staff share accidentals, but staves do not.
- procedure
- The procedure represents an accidental rule to be applied to the previously
specified context.
The procedure takes the following arguments:
context
- The current context to which the rule should be applied.
pitch
- The pitch of the note to be evaluated.
barnum
- The current bar number.
measurepos
- The current measure position.
The procedure returns a pair of booleans. The first states whether an extra
natural should be added. The second states whether an accidental should be
printed. (#t . #f)
does not make sense.
autoBeamCheck
(procedure)- A procedure taking three
arguments, context, dir [start/stop (-1 or 1)], and
test [shortest note in the beam]. A non-
#f
return value
starts or stops the auto beam.
autoBeamSettings

beams should begin and end. See behavior
Establecer el comportamiento de las barras automáticas for more information.

(boolean)- If set to true then beams are generated
automatically.
autoCautionaries
(list)- List similar to
autoAccidentals
,
but it controls cautionary accidentals rather than normal ones. Both
lists are tried, and the one giving the most accidentals wins. In
case of draw, a normal accidental is typeset.
automaticBars
(boolean)- If set to true then bar lines will not
be printed automatically; they must be explicitly created with a
\bar
command. Unlike the \cadenza
keyword, measures
are still counted. Bar generation will resume according to that count
if this property is unset.
barAlways
(boolean)- If set to true a bar line is drawn after
each note.

measurePosition
when finding a bar check.
