There are two things you need to do to create arbitrary noteheads: 1. change the NoteHead stencil to the text-interface. 2. define the text attribute of the NoteHead. It accepts any markup. The easiest thing to do is to simply call a musicglyph, as in this example. <lilypond version="2.24"> %% http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=475 %LSR This snippet was contributed by Victor Adan headCircle = { \once \override NoteHead.stencil = #ly:text-interface::print \once \override NoteHead.text = #(markup #:musicglyph "scripts.flageolet" ) } headPlus = { \once \override NoteHead.stencil = #ly:text-interface::print \once \override NoteHead.text = #(markup #:musicglyph "scripts.stopped") } { \headCircle c'4 \headPlus d'4 % normal e'4 } </lilypond> [[Category:Editorial annotations]] [[Category:Tweaks and overrides]] [[Category:Really simple]] [[Category:Snippet]]
