Re: A few suggestions for Documentation 7.3 "Vocal music"
2007/6/18, Graham Percival <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
The lack of a patch is very unfortunate, especially in something this
long. I'm not comfortable blindly replacing the entire doc section with
this new one, but it's very difficult to see exactly what is being
changed. Could we at least split up the changes?
My bad; here's the patch. It's a pity I didn't propose any changes
sooner; while translating the doc, I often find possible minor
improvements, it never occurred to me that I could officially propose
them...

Re: opening Ly-files
I'm afraid that you will have to learn some basics about LilyPond to be
able to do something useful at all with the program. Then, you will be
able to quickly realize that none of these
files will produce any output, since they don't contain any
(explicit or implicit) \score{...} block. The file
QuartetOpus18_No4_1.ly available in the ZIP file from Mutopia
is the only one that produces any output, and it includes the other
files that you have seen. I guess that you want to produce instrumental
parts and as I said earlier you probably have to at least read the
Tutorial first to be able to do it.
Good luck!

I have attached these 4 files, because it does not work with any of
them.
This is not surprising: if you look into these files, you'll see that
they only contain an identifier:
instrumentName = {music...}
These are the individual instrumental parts, the main score is in
QuartetOpus18_No4_1.ly, and includes them to print the conductor.
By the way, this score has been typeset with version 2.7.40 ; though
the score looks simple enough to compile correctly, you can use
convert-ly to update it. Or you can also install an old version of
LilyPond, to be found here:

[layout tweaks] 1. fill-line
Dear all,
I'm having trouble with tweaking the layout of non-musical notation.
Dozens of try/retry sequences didn't get LilyPond to do the job.
First, I point you at this unexpected feature :
%%% begin %%%
%%% The following code outputs and at
%%% different horizontal shifts
\version "2.11.26" %(windows)
\header
{
title = \markup \normalsize \fill-line { "azerty" }
subtitle = \markup \normalsize { "azerty" }
}
\score {c''}
\layout{}
%%% end %%%
Now, the job :
. , , : variable length strings.
. I want to get and centered on the page,
while is placed on the left of .
. I could not place at a _fixed_ position from the _variable_
position of 's first character.
. I could not even place at a _fixed_ position from the _fixed_
left margin of the page.
%%% begin BROKEN source %%%
\version "2.11.26" %(windows)
\header
{
title = \markup \normalsize
{
%{
%% doesn't compile
\once \override #'(line-width . 60)
\right-align "№ 210" % index
%}
%% doesn't work
\override #'(left-margin . 40)
"№ 210" % index
\override #'(left-margin . 18) % can't use \revert ?
\fill-line { \center-align
{
"azerty" % title
"azerty" % subtitle
}}
}
}
\score {c''}
\layout{}
%%% end BROKEN source %%%
For now, I use the following (unsatisfying) trick as a stopgap :
%%% begin source %%%
\version "2.11.26" %(windows)
\header
{
title = \markup \normalsize \fill-line
{
\hcenter-in #40 "№ 210" % index
\center-align
{
"azerty" % title
"azerty" % subtitle
}
\hcenter-in #40 ""
}
}
\score {c''}

%%% end source %%%
Any piece of advice ?

Re: [layout tweaks] 1. fill-line
hi,
I had the same problem recently and also tried to tweak in the header directly.
But what you actually have to do is, to create your own header.
In the manual it's explained in chapter '10.2.2. Custom Titles'.
You'll have to define the bookTitleMarkup variable in the \paper block to make
the header apear as you want.
I advise to read through the default which is defined in the file
'titling-init.ly'.
Maybe these two links also help:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2007-02/msg00638.html
http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Snippet?id=293
It's not exactly what you want, but maybe they help to understand how the
variables work a little better.
Hope that helped.

Tao

Re: second voice note has no flags
Quoting Tao Cumplido <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Use this in the second voice instead: a2 s8. a16 The 's' will produce an invisible rest. In suppose that in your code lilypond wrote a dotted eigth beamed to a sixteenth and then hid the eigth and the beam, so that the sixteenth looked like a quarter note. Exactly! As an alternative, you could add a \noBeam directive to make sure that the hidden note and the 16th note are not beamed together. /Mats ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Is it possible ?

Re: [layout tweaks] 1. fill-line
I see. This could complicate things a little.
First of all you will need the following in your code:
%%
\paper
{
bookTitleMarkup = \markup
{
\column
{
\fill-line
{
\fromproperty #'header:index %index in the left edge
\fromproperty #'header:title %title centered on page
" " %empty space on the right
}
\fill-line
{
\fromproperty #'header:subtitle %subtitle below title
}
}
}
}
%
This re-defines properties used in the header.
With the above you'll have 'index aligned with 'title, while 'index is on the
left edge and 'title in the center.
'subtitle will be centered below 'title.
Now you have to understand the \fill-line command.
In the manual it's not so well explained, especially how to use it in this
context.
The outcome depends on the number of arguments in a \fill-line block.
The command will place all arguments equally align, so if you want to have
something placed on the left edge, in the center but nothing on the right you
still need to use three arguments. Otherwise you would only get parts on the
outer edges, not in the center.
For this reason I use the empty string (" ") in the example above.
Now to achieve what you want is a little difficult, since you can't work with
fixed distances here.
I'd suggest to fill in empty strings in the first line.
Just make sure that you always have an odd total of arguments, and that the
title is in the middle.
I hope that was clear.
If not, just ask and I'll try to explain better, or maybe someone else.
I have never been much good in explaining.
Good luck,
Tao

Re: beginning-of-measure padding value?
Joe Neeman escreveu: On Monday 09 April 2007 20:38, Kieren MacMillan wrote: [ Lilypond 2.11.12 ; Mac OS X 10.4.9 ] Hello, all! In recent versions of Lilypond, I find that the first element of every measure is generally too close to the preceding barline for my taste -- i.e., there isn't enough left-padding on the first note or rest or whatever (n.b., the spacing issue is especially egregious when the first item is an accidental, arpeggio, or other "note attachment"). I've had some lilypond hacking time recently, so I've been digging into the spacing code. The stuff I'm trying to do is nowhere near complete and I don't yet understand the code fully, but I've put what I have so far in the "jneeman" branch of the git repository. If anyone is sufficiently motivated and technically able to build lilypond from git, I'd appreciate some feedback on the spacing changes. Awesome that you've been able to get your fingers dirty in the spacing engine. You've breached into one of the last domains of the "Han-Wen only" code. Probably only the grace-timing code in the iterators is left as the last outhold of sole Han-Wenness in Lily. I'm glad to see that many kludges are disappearing, but a little worried that there might be subtle spacing corrections that disappear because of this. Do pay close attention to the regtest, especially all the spacing-*.ly files. One of the problems of working on the spacing is that it tends to affect all tests, making it more difficult to see the effect of a fix. -- Han-Wen Nienhuys - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanwen ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

lilypond has even parsed the file completely.

this is a very strange error; I'm also missing which "symbol" isn't

Re: SVG previews
2007/6/18, Keenan Pepper <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: "Just upload the png" is not an acceptable solution. I can eliminate the font dependency by performing "Object to Path" in Inkscape, so I guess I just have to crop it manually in Inkscape as well. Still, I shouldn't getting Scheme syntax errors from running Lilypond on a valid input file. Syntax errors indicate a bug that should be fixed. someone has to write the glue code to output the systems individually. If you don't feel like doing this, my suggestion is to set tagline = ##f, and figure out how Inkscape can crop the image automatically. -- Han-Wen Nienhuys - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanwen ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
