Hi David (et al.), These are questions regarding the "lyric-word-reconstituter" in the thread which includes the post <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2014-03/msg00489.html>.
I'd love to use it (or something like it) in my engravings going forward. 1. It doesn't seem to work with 2.19.61 (at least), and convert-ly doesn't seem to help. The error is warning: type check for `LyricWord' failed; value `#<Grob_properties>' must be of type `list' My instinct (and a quick search on -user) led me to believe that changing (set-object-property! grob-name 'translation-type? list?) to (set-object-property! grob-name 'translation-type? ly:grob-properties?) might fix the problem. The file/example now compiles without error. Did I fix it correctly? 2. This is a workaround/hack/fix from 2014. At the time, there was some question as to whether Janek might roll this (or similar) into the GSoC Lyric project… but that is, I believe, dead in the water. Is there any hope of getting this into the codebase? I'm happy to take this "stub" (much more than a stub, of course!) and shepherd it through the dev process to the goal line — but I don't want to start down a track that will ultimately lead to frustration or nowhere at all. Thanks, Kieren. ________________________________ Kieren MacMillan, composer ‣ website: www.kierenmacmillan.info ‣ email: i...@kierenmacmillan.info _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
