Hi, from a fellow guitarist!
2007/1/30, Martin Nopola <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
\version "2.8.8" on Suse Linux 10 I have been making beautiful copies of classical guitar music for my 8 string guitar. Everything works fine as long as I can copy a template such as \set Score.skipTypesetting = ##t s4*8 And this works for string number spacing if I enter them as text \once \override TextScript #'staff-padding = #3.0 b4^"2" e a2-3 But the numbers are twice as large as default string numbers. However, when I try changing variables on my own nothing works. This is one of my numerous failures \once \override StringNumberOrientations #' Stringnumber = down <g\6>4-1 fis e <d\7>
For fingerings and such I always put them between brackets: <g\6-1>4 fis e <d\7> %... If the fingering is outside the brackets, the fingering orientations may not work properly.
How do I set fingeringOrientation (up,down,left.right)
\set fingeringOrientations = #'(left)
StringNumberOrientations (up, down)
\set stringNumberOrientation = #'(up)
StringNumber #'staff-padding = #2.0
\override StringNumber #'padding = #2.0
fingerNumber #'staff-padding Someday this will all make sense. Marty
This is an idea that may work for you. I have a settings file where I define certain items, such as fingering positions, string number positions, etc, and I include it in every guitar-oriented score I typeset. for example: rhu = { \set strokeFingerOrientation = #'(up) } rhd = { \set strokeFingerOrientation = #'(down) } rhuonce = { \once \set strokeFingerOrientation = #'(up) } % ...etc I include it in the new ly score, such as: \version "2.11.14" \include "/home/danton67/lib/ly/mydefs.ly" % Whenever I need an upward stroke fingering overall I just put: \rhu % If i only need it occassionally, I just put: \rhuonce If you're interested in the "library", ask and I'll send it to your mail. So as not to burden the list.
