Hello fellow LilyPonders,
I was engraving a piece of chant in modern notation recently, and discovered that none of the custodes will draw a ledger for middle C (C4) or A5, notes beyond the 5-line staff. These notes do occur in chant and polyphony.
Is there a workaround for this? Or have I missed something fundamental?
\layout { ragged-right = ##t }
\new Staff \with { \consists "Custos_engraver" } \relative c' {
\override Staff.Custos.neutral-position = #4
\override Staff.Custos.style = #'vaticana
c'1^"vaticana" \break
c,1 \break
a''1
}
Many thanks,
mattfong
