Hi guys, your friendly Doc Editor here again. Can somebody other than
Han, Jan,
or Mats answer this? (not that I have anything against you guys; I
just don't want
to bother you with this and get more people involved in writing the
manual. :)
Could somebody explain this part of the manual?
--- (from 5.2.2, Octave check)
There is also a syntax that is separate from the notes. The syntax
\octave pitch
This checks that pitch (without quotes) yields pitch (with quotes) in
\relative mode. If not, a warning is printed, and the octave is
corrected, for example, the first check is passed successfully. The
second check fails with an error message. The octave is adjusted so the
following notes are in the correct octave once again.
\relative c' {
e
\octave a'
\octave b'
}
---
Specifically, what's the "first check", "second check" business? I
don't use
\octave, and I can't understand the second paragraph, so I'm hoping
somebody can clarify this.
Cheers,
- Graham
