I'm creating a new thread because the previous one has become somewhat
cluttered.
My template is much better now, thank you for your suggestions.
As emphasized by David Kastrup, the keyword \new instructs Lilypond to
create a new instance of a class.
\new StaffGroup creates an instance of the StaffGroup object.
In this template several properties of the Score class are modified, such
as:
\hide Score.SystemStartBracket
\override Score.BarNumber.font-size = #1.5
I surmise that the StaffGroup object inherits from the Score object, similar
to inheritence in object oriented programming.
Again, this is the first 10 measures and the upper 2 staffs of a 100
measure, 4 staff score.
I'm pleased with the separations in this template.
- The declaration of the nesting structure now contains only the nesting of
the elements
- Properties of the elements are all declared in \layout
One thing remains: the property "forbid_line_break_engraver" is a property
of the element Voice
If possible I want to avoid repeating commands. I don't want to put in the
\remove "forbid_line_break_engraver" four times, for every voice in the
score.
For the other properties I was able to use a dot notation access. Examples:
\hide Score.SystemStartBracket
\override Staff.InstrumentName.self-alignment-X = #RIGHT
The accessor \context allows the property to be set centrally:
\context { \Voice \remove "Forbid_line_break_engraver" }
But is just a side effect? Is \context meant for something else entirely?
Can the property "forbid_line_break_engraver" also be accessed using a dot
notation?
