Doc 2.4.2: Indicating harmonics and dampened notes

[Pierre Perol-Schneider]

Hi Bug Squad,
See:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/guitar.html#indicating-harmonics-and-dampened-notes
And:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/guitar.html#indicating-harmonics-and-dampened-notes

1. I don't understand the reason to put the NoteHead defs at a Staff level.
2. Maybe a whole note is not the best example to show the 'harmonic-mixed
result.

How about changing this snieppet:

\relative c' {
\clef "treble_8"
\override Staff.NoteHead.style = #'harmonic-mixed
d^\markup { \italic { \fontsize #-2 { "harm. 12" }}} <g b>1
}

To:

\relative c' {
\clef "treble_8"
\override NoteHead.style = #'harmonic-mixed
d8^\markup { \italic { \fontsize #-2 { "harm. 12" }}} <g b>4
}

Cheers,
Pierre

I guess there isn't any reason, since Note_heads_engraver is part of
the Voice context.

Why? Because the diamond shape is more clear when the head is all black?

Can't see a specific reason here. So I'd vote for deleting "Staff".

d8^\markup { \italic { \fontsize #-2 { "harm. 12" }}} <g b>4

Agreed. Also, why not delete some of the superfluous brackets in the
markup? Only keeping the surrounding ones for better viewable
structure. I.e.
\markup { \italic \fontsize #-2 "harm. 12" }

Could you provide a patch?

Cheers,
Harm
