Piano + two verses?

2005-07-24 Thread Nick Urbanik
Dear Folks,

I am hoping that someone might help me on the right track here.  I
used the template from input/template/piano-verse.ly from 1.6.0,
converted to 2.4.6 using convert-ly.

My result has the two verses overwriting each other, and I don't
understand how to get both verses starting at the same time.  I have
attached my effort.  I would be grateful for any hints.

I haven't tried this in 2.4.0; it works in 2.7.0.  Try something like:

Hello LilyPonders,

For those of you who are using NoteWorthy composer and are interested in a
conversion tool to LilyPond please see my website:

http://hans.octet.nl/muziek/nwc2ly.html

It's far from perfect, but can possibly save you a lot of time.

unexpected digit with tied chords

syntax error, unexpected DIGIT, expecting DRUM_PITCH or NOTENAME_PITCH

Re: unexpected digit with tied chords a manual documentation lack

2005-07-24 Thread Jay Hamilton, Sound and Silence

I found the problem- the manual doesn't really explain this very well.
The example(s)  in chapter 6 of the manual leave out any mention of how 
to define the value of the chord - it turns out that it must be entered 
outside the <> not inside as I had thought.

Instead of this:
 ~

Type this:
4~

Instead of this:


Type this:
2.

The duration of all the notes of the chord (within the same voice on the
staff), are the same, so it is not merely an arbitrary convention but
logical that the duration would be placed following the chord as a
whole, not after a particular note *within* the chord.

Re: Beams, slurs and Chords

2005-07-24 Thread Hans de Rijck
Hi Paul,

Thanks for your answer. I see what you mean, and it certainly looks good,
but it will be almost impossible to generate this from the input. I'll keep
your solution in mind though, as it is probably the way it should have been
notated in the first place.

thanks,

Hans de Rijck

Does this work by putting the two verses of lyrics between the two
piano staves (which is what I am trying to achieve)?

Previously, I had:
\context Staff = "upper" \PianoRH
\context Lyrics \firstVerse
\context Lyrics \secondVerse
\context Staff = "lower" <<
  \clef bass
  \PianoLH
>>
So should I change the context of both to the same as the context for
the lyrics?

I tried this:

\score {
  \new GrandStaff <<
\oldaddlyrics
\context Staff = "song" \PianoRH
\context Lyrics = song \lyricsto song
\simultaneous { \firstVerse
\new Lyrics \secondVerse }
\context Staff = "song" <<
  \clef bass
  \PianoLH
>>
  >>
  \layout {
\context {
  \GrandStaff
  \accepts "Lyrics"
}
\context {
  %\Lyrics
  \Lyrics
  %\consists "Bar_engraver"
}
  }  
  \midi { }  
}

but now I have only one staff, and there are no lyrics.  I am sorry
that I am not smart enough to understand what you have told me!

LilyPond uses sans-serif font after 2.6 upgrade

2005-07-24 Thread Benjamin Esham
I'm using LilyPond 2.6.1 with fink 0.24.7 on Mac OS X 10.4.2.  After  
I updated from Lily 2.4.x to 2.6.1, LilyPond started to use an ugly  
sans-serif font (Verdana, specifically) for all text in my score--  
titles, bar numbers, text markups, etc.  This happens even in files  
with no special font-related commands whatsoever.  I'm not sure where  
to begin to fix this-- can anyone give me some pointers?  Thanks a ton!
