I'm researching "how do I make a note head smaller" because I need to
fit a few more notes on a line to keep it from going nuts and
extending lines way past explicit "\break" commands. I've googled and
grep'd tons of documents, and I still don't know how to do it. I've
found possible solutions, but the syntax doesn't seem to work anywhere
I place the commands. I've tried searching the
\override Staff.NoteHead #'font-size = #-1.0
This seems to work if you put it inside the \notes block. Its all in the
program reference, but it's a nightmare to sift through and it still
seems to require lots of trial and error. For example:
1) what do #' and # mean? They seem to get used a lot.
2) the Staff context here doesn't have to be created explicitly. What
sort of contexts get created implicitly and how long to they last?
3) what about << >>? If I use it within a \notes block, it seems to
create Voice contexts and combine them into a single staff. But what if
I have
<< \new Staff {blah} \new Staff {blah} >>
or
<< \new Staff \new Voice {blah} \new Voice {blah} >>
What do the << >> do in this situation?
And is << \new Staff {\new Voice {blah} \new Voice {blah}} >> any
different from the example 2 lines ago?
Thanks,
Joe
