Can you hide and replace a note with a question mark? I kind of
achieved this with the below example. But the question mark is not in
place of the note, it appears below the staff. I can use \override
TextScript.extra-offset = #'(0 . 4.275) to achieve this but I don't
want to hard code the offset as the note to hide can appear anywhere
on the staff.
You can exchange the note head by a markup:
\version "2.22.0"
\language english
questionMark = \markup \general-align #Y #CENTER {
\fontsize #7 \with-color "#6A00F4" "?"
}
\new Staff \with {
\omit TimeSignature
}
{
\cadenzaOn
\key c \major
\clef bass
f1 g
% comment to center the question mark
% on the actual notehead position:
\once \override NoteHead.Y-offset = 0
\once \override NoteHead.stencil =
#(lambda (grob) (grob-interpret-markup grob questionMark))
a
bf c'
\bar "||"
}
If you want to do this more often, you might define a shorthand (that
then should also contain a "\once \omit Stem" etc.)
