Re: Arpeggios across notes in different voices

Maybe that was a bad example, sorry.

Here is another one: I'm trying to get the arpeggio line to span from the low "c" to the highest "a", which is in a separate voice:

Here is the code for this example; could someone correct my example to show how it is done?

Thanks so much!

Dirck I copied and pasted the code in the body of your e-mail.
Was there a different MWE or attached file?

Hi Mark

Thanks for the reply, but I think you might have viewed the wrong file?

The LilyPond file i submitted should look like this: only one chord.

Dirck,

The two chords are of different duration.
\consists "Span_arpeggio_engraver" is not needed.

Hello all

I am trying to extend an arpeggio line to cover the entire chord in the example below.

I have tried using this:
{
  \consists "Span_arpeggio_engraver"
}
and this:
 \set Staff.connectArpeggios = ##t
  <<
    { <e' g>4\arpeggio <d f> <d f>2 }
    \\
    { <d, f>2\arpeggio <g b>2 }
  >>
as given in Reference 1.3.3, but I cannot make it work.
I understand the work-around for this example would be to notate all notes in a single voice, but i have other situations where this can not be done.

If anyone has time, could someone add the proper sequence & syntax to my example, please? I think i could figure it out from there.

Thank you all so much!

Dirck
