Re: \afterGrace - afterGraceFraction [Lilypond 2.10.0 Windows]

[Mats Bengtsson]

Actually, afterGraceFraction is defined as an ordinary LilyPond identifier,
in ly/music-functions-init.ly. So, one option for you if you want to 
change the
setting globally for the full score is to add
afterGraceFraction = #(cons 7 8)
at the top level of the file (just as you can define mymelody={c d e f} ).

If you want to change the setting in the middle of a piece, one option 
is to
use Scheme syntax to change the value of the variable:
#(define afterGraceFraction (cons 7 8))

(if you do this setting directly after a \afterGrace, then it seems to 
affect also
this preceding \afterGrace).
