Any text that aligns horisontally, should align on the baseline. For latin
scripts at least. Alignment anywhere else is just plain wrong.
That said, horizontal alignment of dynamics doesn't look like it's been a
primary concern in any of the hand-engraved scores I can remember ever seeing.
The engraver seems to have been more concerned, usually, with fitting in the
dynamics using as little space as possible; this often means moving the dynamic
script slightly to the left to be able to place it closer to the staff.
Here's Lilypond's default compared with an approximation to this technique:
\version "2.11.0"
\paper { ragged-right = ##t }
\score {
\context Score <<
\relative c' { s8\mf c4*1/2^\markup{Almost good} d4 e f

Re: LilyPond 2.4.6 for cygwin?
Since the error message complains about feta20.afm, it has nothing directly to do with ec-fonts-mftraced. Rather, I suspect that you have teTeX 3 installed, which is a bit more picky about where font related files are located, compared to earlier teTeX versions, see http://www.mail-archive.com/lilypond-user@gnu.org/msg23601.html for example. However, when browsing the mailing list archives, I get the impression that this problem should have been solved already in LilyPond 2.4.5. Maybe you just have to run the command texhash to refresh the file name database to make it work again. /Mats Thomas Scharkowski wrote: Thank you, but I need version 2.4.6. (BTW I normally use the newest Windows version). The mail archives showed several similar problems (can't find feta...) and maybe the solution is to get an older version of ec- fonts-mftraced (1.0.2). Is there any chance? Thomas You could do the following: install 2.6.5-1 for Windows from http://lilypond.org/web/install/older-versions and run it from Cygwin. This is perhaps easier.

Re: Two questions about note heads
The basic principle is the same as is described in the section on Polymetric

mynotehead = \markup{\musicglyph #"scripts.turn" }
\score {
\relative c''{

There are many shapes to choose from in LilyPond, see the section called
Special noteheads in the manual.
I should have been more clear... I meant a completely custom symbol, by
picking something out of the Feta font, not just changing the style.

Re: Tutorial
If you read "How LilyPond files work" in the Tutorial, you will learn that
if you have something like
\relative b' { \set Staff.instrumentName = " 2 " \key c \major \override
Staff.TimeSignature #'style = #'()
d2 c b r a4 b c a g2 r b4 c d b a b c a b c d b a b c a d2 c b r a4 b c
a g2 r \bar "||"
}
in your file, then it's actually equivalent to
\score{
\relative b' { \set Staff.instrumentName = " 2 " \key c \major \override
Staff.TimeSignature #'style = #'()
d2 c b r a4 b c a g2 r b4 c d b a b c a b c d b a b c a d2 c b r a4 b c
a g2 r \bar "||"
}
}
This, of course, means that if you want to include a \header{...} for
your specific
score, then it has to be included within the same \score{...} block as
the actual music.
Also, I forgot to tell you one detail, which is described in section
"Creating titles",
namely that by default, only the piece and opus headers are printed for
each
separate score. Note also that your attempt to get rid of the bar
numbering fails
completely. Here's a modified version of your first example that hopefully
is closer to what you want:
\version "2.10.0"
\paper{
printallheaders=##t
bottom-margin = 3\cm
}
\layout{
\context{
\Score
\remove "Bar_number_engraver"
}
}
\score{
\relative b' { \set Staff.instrumentName = " 1 " \override
Staff.TimeSignature #'style = #'() \key g \major
g a b c d d d d g, a b c d2 d \break g,4 a b c d d d d d c b a g2 g \bar
"||"
}
\header{
title = "Ist ein Wolf in'n Brunnen Gefallen"
arranger = " "
}
}
\score{
\relative b' { \set Staff.instrumentName = " 2 " \key c \major \override
Staff.TimeSignature #'style = #'()
d2 c b r a4 b c a g2 r b4 c d b a b c a b c d b a b c a d2 c b r a4 b c
a g2 r \bar "||"
}
\header{
title = "Summ, summ, summ"

}
}

Re: Tutorial
Thanks very much for your help, Mats!
Typesetting music with LilyPond is fun. I can't do it right, but it
is still fun. (And actually it wasn't fun with other, commercial
programs). It is perhaps difficult for a poor musician with no
knowledge whatsoever of a command-line way of working to learn. I
work with this for a couple of hours a day, but it will take me a
while to understand, perhaps, some obvious things (that are not
obvious to me, of course) - but please believe that I do look in the
manual and try solutions.

Hi, I have several multi-score "\book"s that I want to typeset, and ideally I'd like to do this from within Lilypond (and not with lilypond-book) to take advantage of the new line/page breaking (and to keep my tool-chain as short as possible). Now, I know how to include a full header for each piece. I'm comfortable enough with customizing oddFooterMarkup et al with information that I know how to get. But there's some information I'd like to get at, that I'm not sure where to find. Is there a way to test (within an oddFooterMarkup redefinition) which piece (i.e. \score block) I'm in? Can I test whether this is the first, or indeed last, page of the current \score (as opposed to the whole book)? I need this to typeset e.g. copyright information for each score in an anthology, or information on separate availability (and ISMN) on each part in a multi-part work.

I've applied most of the stuff in that patch, though I just did it manually. Once we get some more snippets made, perhaps we can make a screencast... that might get some more response from this list ;) (you're the first to notice my original note as far as I can tell). For those Mac Lilypond users who haven't tried TextMate, I really can't recommend it enough. And I'll reiterate what I originally said: I think TextMate is really ideal for dealing with languages like lilypond that have somewhat different needs from most programming languages. The snippets, the incredibly flexible syntax highlighting, and the ability to integrate commands like updating code to the most recent lilypond version, engraving, or creating midi files, make TextMate even more useful than the venerable emacs, in my opinion (and far prettier on the Mac ;). Best of all, customizing TextMate is *really easy*, so even newbies can mold it to their needs.

uniform-stretching
Hi,
I tried the uniform-stretching property but couldn't get it to work as

out bars according to their time-signature regardless of skips or

second, the last and the one before the last measure should have the
same width ...):

Extracting parts from a .ly file?
Hello users, does anybody have a Python or Perl script to extract parts from a
.ly file and save them into a different file?
For example:
I have several files with:
soprano = {
music
}
alto = {
music
}
etc.
and would like to get each part in a different file (soprano.ly, alto.ly,
etc.ly) . If someone with programming skills could share such script, I'd be
very thankful. I'm using Windows XP and if it is in a language other than
Python or Perl, it is fine if it works in Windows.

Hi Orm,
OK, I'm spinning out some combinations of different settings, and
getting closer.
We definitely need uniform-stretching = ##t (as you have here in your example).
I think we also need \remove Separating_line_group_engraver, as
Han-Wen mentioned in a mail yesterday. (Separating_line_group_engraver
lives in the Staff context, BTW; make sure to place the \remove there
or else Lily will silently pass over your incorrect engraver removal,
never letting you know that you've failed to remove what you thought
you were removing.)
So I've put together four score pairs; each pair comprises first notes
and then rests.
The first pair has no tweaks and shows that notes and rests of like
duration space differently by default.
The second pair removes Separating_line_group_engraver from the Staff context.
The third pair sets uniform-stretching = ##t.
The fourth pair performs both tweaks.
These examples provide a couple of useful conclusions but don't yet
solve the problem. The conclusions are:
1. Notes and rests of like duration space differently by default (as
mentioned above)
2. uniform-stretching = ##t spaces notes and rests of like duration
identically (which is what we want)
3. removing Separating_line_group_engraver by itself is not enough to
cause even spacing; but I'm including the examples with removing
Separating_line_group_engraver because other testfiles seem to show
that the removal is necessary to get true proportional spacing
More tests coming later today ...

AHA. Found it.
Setting uniform-stretching will make *almost* all skips work correctly
under proportional notation. However, there is in fact a genuine bug
with spaces freaking out proportional spacing, with one very specific
condition needing to be satisfied: the space must come as the very
first grob in the measure (immediately after a \time command).
Compare the three scores below: all are one-measure scores and all
three measures should be exactly the same length. Skips are fine; just
not at the beginning of the measure; and the third score fails.
%%% BEGIN %%%
\version "2.11.0"

AHA. There *is* a genuine bug as relates to spaces screwing up
proportional notation under the circumstance that a skip *appears as
the first item in a measure*. I'll crosspost to the bug list.
Hi Orm,
So, in the meantime you can use replace skips with transparent rests
as a workaround to the measure-initial skip bug. The last two measures
in 5/8 are uneven with skips (in the first score) and completely even
with transparent rests (in the second score).
%%% BEGIN %%%
\version "2.11.0"
\layout {
ragged-right = ##t
}
\score {
\new Staff \with {
\remove Separating_line_group_engraver
} {
\relative {
\override Score.SpacingSpanner #'uniform-stretching = ##t
\set Score.proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment 8 50)
\time 4/4 r1
\time 3/8 r4.
\time 5/4 r1 r4
\time 5/16 r4 r16
\time 5/8 s2 s8 % Uneven
\time 5/8 r2 r8 % Uneven
}
}
}
\score {
\new Staff \with {
\remove Separating_line_group_engraver
} {
\relative c' {
\override Score.SpacingSpanner #'uniform-stretching = ##t
\set Score.proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment 8 50)
\time 4/4 r1
\time 3/8 r4.
\time 5/4 r1 r4
\time 5/16 r4 r16
\override Rest #'transparent = ##t
\time 5/8 r2 r8
\revert Rest #'transparent
\time 5/8 r2 r8
}
}
}
%%% END %%%
So the transparent rest workaround should help until we can fix the
measure-initial skip bug.
What's odd, though, is how short that first measure in 4/4 is ... can
we get a minimal (one- or two-measure) example that shows that overly
shortened first measure?

Complex piano score
Greetings - This is not about a bug or a specific problem; rather, it's a request for advice. I'm running LilyPond 2.10 under WinXP SP2. I'm transcribing a complex piano score with a lot of markup and one to four voices. Each voice is silent for up to many measures at times. I would like to be able to check the score measure by measure, as I transcribe it. It looks like there are multiple strategies for producing such a score. Do any of you have a favorite strategy you'd be willing to share? I've looked at the LilyPond examples and the User Manual, but nothing appropriate jumps out at me.

Re: a2 paper
I edit the file successfully. The same file that works on windows, on macintosh generates a PDF that's rotated landscape. I am editing the paper.scm inside the lilypond app. Here's what happens. I compile the file in lilypond, and the pdf that is generated is my new paper size, but the paper is rotated landscape. If I open the postscript in preview, in renders a pdf on letter size paper (the default) I can change the default paper in Adobe distiller to my new size paper and run the postscript through that to get the proper paper size. Is it possible to embed the paper size in the postscript that lilypond generate?. That seems to be the step that's missing.

odd choral score problem
So, I'm creating a choral score and having some difficulties. First of all, I put everything in separate files because it's just easier for me to find errors that way, so posting music would be a bit difficult, I'll explain everything as well as I can. I have "SopranoMusic" defined in its own file. I have "sopranolyrics" defined in its own file. I also have a sopranoscore file that puts the two together so I can see the output and check things before I start putting a choral score together. I have these files defined for all of my voice parts. And I also have an "open score" version file that compiles all of the music and lyrics together into an open score, and am just now creating a "closed score" version for my final version. Each part creates a pdf that is perfect individually. The open score creates a pdf that is perfect. The closed score version has odd lyric placement issues after extended rests. These issues do not occur in the solo part versions or the open score version. Specifically, after a rest of more than a measure, the lyrics are shifted over. I don't really understand it. Is there something I'm missing. I just edited the choral score template from the 2.10 tutorial. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

try adding

It works perfectly. Once again I retract the bug report.

}
\new Score \with {

\override PaperColumn #'stencil = #ly:paper-column::print
\override PaperColumn #'used = ##t
} {
\new Staff \with {
\remove Separating_line_group_engraver
} {
\time 4/4 s4 s4 s4 s4 % WORKS FINE WITH SKIP AT BEGINNING OF MEASURE
}
}
%%% END %%%
Of the two PaperColumn overrides ...
\override PaperColumn #'stencil = #ly:paper-column::print
\override PaperColumn #'used = ##t
... it is setting 'used = ##t that is necessary for measure-initial
skips to space proportionally; setting stencil labels the paper
columns and musical durations (in fractions of a whole note) for
debugging. (See attached.)
This helps tremendously. Getting much closer to the right spacing for
Orm's violin score ...

I'm transcribing a complex piano score with a lot of markup and one to four voices. Each voice is silent for up to many measures at times. I would like to be able to check the score measure by measure, as I transcribe it. It looks like there are multiple strategies for producing such a score. Do any of you have a favorite strategy you'd be willing to share? I've looked at the LilyPond examples and the User Manual, but nothing appropriate jumps out at me.

Hi Orm,
OK, and overriding PaperColumn used to ##t (together with uniform
stretching) evens out the last two measures in 5/8 perfectly (with no
need to resort to the transparent Rest workaround).
%%% BEGIN %%%
\version "2.11.0"
\layout {
ragged-right = ##t
}
\score {
\new Staff \with {
\remove Separating_line_group_engraver
} {
\relative {
\override Score.SpacingSpanner #'uniform-stretching = ##t
\set Score.proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment 8 50)
\override Score.PaperColumn #'used = ##t
\time 4/4 r1
\time 3/8 r4.
\time 5/4 r1 r4
\time 5/16 r4 r16
\time 5/8 s2 s8
\time 5/8 r2 r8
}
}
}
\score {
\new Staff \with {
\remove Separating_line_group_engraver
} {
\relative c' {
\override Score.SpacingSpanner #'uniform-stretching = ##t
\set Score.proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment 8 50)
\override Score.PaperColumn #'used = ##t
\time 4/4 r1
\time 3/8 r4.
\time 5/4 r1 r4
\time 5/16 r4 r16
\time 5/8 s2 s8
\time 5/8 r2 r8
}
}
}
%%% END %%%
I still don't understand why that initial measure in 4/4 is so short, though ...
So the list of settings to use so far is:
1. \set proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment n d) (in the Score)
2. \override SpacingSpanner #'uniform-stretching = ##t (in the Score)
3. \override PaperColumn #'used = ##t (in the Score)
4. \remove Separating_line_group_engraver (in the Staff)
In addition, if you want "true" proportional notation (where time
signatures and clefs and accidentals consume no space), then set
5. \override SpacingSpanner #'strict-note-spacing = ##t (in the Score)
This should now be much closer.
Also, some other contemporary best practices I use almost all the time are:
Score:
6. allowBeamBreak = ##t
7. autoBeaming = ##f
8. tupletFullLength = ##t
9. \override Beam #'break-overshoot = #'(-0.5 . 1.0)
10. \override SpacingSpanner #'strict-grace-spacing = ##t
11. \override TupletBracket #'bracket-visibility = ##t
Voice:
12. \remove Forbid_line_break_engraver
Most of these additional settings aid in letting tuplet brackets and
beams break across two or even three lines, and so may not be as
useful in your current score. But if you do have sections with many
measured spanners, consider the settings above for a starting point.

Impossible to say without seeing your .ly files.
