why doesn't Y-offset work for Hairpins?
The documentation page for Hairpin --
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.9/Documentation/user/lilypond-internals/Hairpin.html
-- lists Y-offset as one of the standard settings. It also says that
Hairpin supports grob-interface, and the grob-interface page --
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.9/Documentation/user/lilypond-internals/grob_002dinterface.html
-- also lists Y-offset as one of the "User settable properties".
So I would assume that putting
\once \override Score.Hairpin #'Y-offset = #6
before a hairpin object would shift it up or down, in this case by 6 staff
spaces.
But in fact, the following example moves the hairpin not at all:
\version "2.9.17"
\layout { ragged-right = ##t }
{
\once \override Score.Hairpin #'Y-offset = #6
\relative c' {c1\> c1\!}
}
Am I missing something, or is this a bug?
BTW, X-offset works just fine. And extra-offset works too, but I don't
think that's what I want (because it doesn't create any extra space).

Hi, Marcus: Am I missing something, or is this a bug? It sure seems like a bug to me... try posting to bug-lilypond. In the meantime, you can use \once \override DynamicLineSpanner #'padding = #6 which is what I *always* use anyway! =) Cheers, Kieren. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Crowded output
I am writing in a style lately that has separate score commands for introduction, verse 1 etc. I have an 8 bar intro witht he folowing voices: guitar, guitar tab, chords/rhythm, bass. There is not problem getting these to play with each other. The problem is purely cosmetic: The entire 8 bars is showing on one line and I'd like it to be more readable and span 2 lines. At first I found an awkward work-around: I placed a measure of rest at the beginning...could of construed that as the drummer clicking it off. But when I found a slight mistake in one part it evidently resulted in an internal calculation saying put this on one line. Tried to look for likely overrides in the 2.6 documentation (I'm using 2.6.5) but really didn;t see anything. I'll keep looking, but if there is a way to nudge the start of a score over a few centimeters that would seem to make the thing work like I want.

Lilypond for Mac OS 7.6?
Hi, I´d like to know if there is an older version of Lilypond available that will run on my old PowerBook 190 using OS 7.6? ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

\layout { indent = 3.0\cm }
You could also insert a manual \break.

The explanation may be something similar as the explanation in the
section on "Text Markup" on why \left-align doesn't have any effect
for RehearsalMark objects.

Re: no automatic beaming: bug?
Note that you don't get any beam in the following example either
(for the same reason):
\score{
\relative c'{c8 d e}
}
Since the default beaming rules say that 8th notes should be beamed
together 4 and 4 in common time, you could rather say
that it's an inconsequence that \score{
\relative c'{c8 d e r}
}
does produce a beam. I hope you realize that in your first example
that rest occurs in a completely different Voice context, so the
implementation has no chance to see that the three notes are followed
by a rest. I hope you also have read "Explicitly Instantiating Voices"
so you know a clean way to handle this situation.

In lilypond 2.8.6 this input
{ << {c''8 d''8 c''8} \\ {r4.} >> r8 r2 }
gives three eighth notes with seperated flags (i.e. without a beam). In my
opinion, that is a bug.
In contrast, the slightly modified input
{ << {c''8 d''8 c''8 r} \\ {r2} >> r2 }
produces a beam.

Re: triangle voice
The RhythmicStaff context doesn't print any clef by default. If you
want to change that, you have to add the clef engraver yourself:
\new RhythmicStaff \with{\consists "Clef_engraver"}{
\triangolo
}
If you search the mailing list archives, you can find lots
of examples on how to set the padding to increase the spacing
to the rehearsal marks.
/Mats
Quoting Michael Kiermaier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I wrote a triangle voice using a RhythmicStaff.
There are two problems I want to show by a small example:
\version "2.8.6"
triangolo = {
\clef percussion
c c c c |
\mark \default |
\repeat "percent" 50 {c2 c |}
}
\new RhythmicStaff {
\triangolo
}
1) The rehersal mark collides with the bar line. Is there a way to raise all
the rehersal marks by a certain distance?
2) the percussion clef doesn't get printed.
I also played around with DrumStaff staffs, but I did not get the results I
wanted.

It seems you are both right. Kieren, your suggestion works perfectly. And I now notice at the bottom of the Dynamics page -- http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.9/Documentation/user/lilypond/Dynamics.html -- the following note under "See also": "Program reference: DynamicText, Hairpin. Vertical positioning of these symbols is handled by DynamicLineSpanner." That should have clued me in. But I wonder why "Hairpin" even has a "Y-offset" setting -- listed at http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.9/Documentation/user/lilypond-internals/Hairpin.html -- if it doesn't do anything. As part of grob-interface, sure. But to have it listed separately on the Hairpin page, seems unnecessary and confusing to me. There are many other grobs which have no such setting listed. Anyway, thanks to both of you for your quick and helpful responses! Marcus ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Horizontal beams (automatically)?
I know this has been asked before, but I haven't found an answer: Is there a way to automatically make all beams flat, or to automatically make a certain beam flat? Searching the documentation and lilypond-user, I found two methods, neither of them sufficient. The first method, \override Beam #'damping = #10 , should make the beams horizontal, according to the documentation -- http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.9/Documentation/user/lilypond-internals/Beam.html and http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.9/Documentation/user/lilypond-internals/beam_002dinterface.html -- but in fact they remain slightly slanted. (For example, one end of the beam sits on the staff line, while the other end of the beam straddles it.) The second method (as suggested recently by Trevor Baca on this list), \override Beam #'positions = #'(4 . 4) , works fine for individual beams, but is impractical for a whole piece; you'd have to manually set the position of each beam. Any other ideas? Marcus ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
