The big distance is true to the fact that the stems in tablature are still there, but invisible. You can try to use \slurDown or \stemDown, or alternatively move the slurs by \override Slur #'control-points = #'( ) but since I didn't ever played around with control points, I can't help you with that.

Instead of "user" and "engraver", I want "music" and "engraving". The key objective of LilyPond is to have the author of a LilyPond input file specify only the musical semantics (i.e. the intended musical meaning). Then a perfect LilyPond would know exactly what to do with that musical meaning to make a perfectly-engraved score. "harmonics" is a muscial semantic; "diamond" is an engraving semantic. I think that the closer we get to musical semantics, the better LilyPond input is. As an example of this point, I cringe every time I have to tweak something to make it work, because I'm working in engraving semantics, not musical semantics. Moving slur control points is an example of this; there's no musical content at all in the location of slur control points; it's all engraving content. While I want to have access to the engraving content, I'd prefer never to have to touch it, because a perfect LilyPond would do all the engraving automatically. I'd tell it what I want musically; it would give me perfect output sheet music. For me, I think the "correct musical semantics" argument overrides the "don't expand the namespace" argument.

ANN: LilyPondTool 2.12.869 Final Released
Dear LilyPonders, after some weeks of beta testing (thanks goes to those who tested and reported problems), I've released the latest version of LilyPondTool to the jEdit plugin central. Hopefully it will be soon available for download from the plugin manager. But they, who can't wait until that, can download the latest version from: https://sourceforge.net/projects/lily4jedit/files/lily4jedit/LilyPondTool-2.12.869/lily4jedit-2.12.869.zip/download After it is available from the Plugin Manager, I will send a notification. That notification could go to the LilyPond News page and other interested lists. One more: in the future more frequent plugin manager releases are coming, as the build/release procedure is much simpler now, than before.

Re: 2.13.3 docs emacs mode documentation AU 2.2.1 out of date?
Paul,
Are you using Linux or Windows XP?
After you install LilyPond, you'll have all the files you need for
lilypond-mode to work right there in your installation directory. You'll
just need to tell Emacs where to locate them.
In your .emacs.d directory you'll need a file called "init.el" It may
already be present. If it's not, create it.
In that file, past the following lines:
(setq load-path (append (list (expand-file-name
"*//home/david/lilypond/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/*")) load-path))
(autoload 'LilyPond-mode "lilypond-mode" "LilyPond Editing Mode" t)
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.ly$" . LilyPond-mode))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.ily$" . LilyPond-mode))
(add-hook 'LilyPond-mode-hook (lambda () (turn-on-font-lock)))
I've bolded and italicized the path to my lilypond-mode files. Change
them to in your init.el to point to the location of yours and you should
be all set.
Hope that helps,

Staff change in a chord
Hi all,
I wrote a piece for piano that I'm now typesetting in Lilypond. However,
there's a construction in which I run into problems.
I've attached an snippet that shows a bit what I need (it's the same bar
twice); the triplets in the left hand are connected to a chord, but the
highest notes are played by the right hand.
Adding a staff change in the triplets is no problem (see the second
bar), but that won't work in a chord: I tried:
\times 2/3 { cis,8~ d~ \change Staff=up a~ } \change Staff=down 4
but that gives me an "unexpected \change".
Is there any way to achieve this?
Below is the code for the attached snippet.
Thanks in advance,
Oscar
\new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff = "up" {
\clef treble
s4 fis'8 e'16 d' s4 a'8 g'16 fis'
s4 fis'8 e'16 d' s4 a'8 g'16 fis'
\bar "||"
}
\new Staff = "down" {
\clef bass
\set tieWaitForNote = ##t
\times 2/3 { cis,8~ d~ a~ } 4
\times 2/3 { d,8~ fis~ d'~ } 4
\times 2/3 { cis,8~ d~ \change Staff=up a~ } \change Staff=down 4
\times 2/3 { d,8~ fis~ \change Staff=up d'~ } \change Staff=down 4

Pardon my ignorance, but is there a legitimate downside to expanding the namespace? Does it affect performance speed? Eat up memory? Or is it just that it makes the program look more "clogged" with commands or something? I'm thinking of the comparison between LISP and Scheme. They say the entire Scheme standard is smaller than the index of the LISP standard, so it's more compact. I guess Scheme users might say "I don't want a whole bunch of features I'm never going to use". But I imagine LISP users might say "I wouldn't want to have to keep defining basic operators that Scheme removed from LISP". Is it a personal thing or is there a clear advantage to having a smaller namespace?

volta repeats with alternatives
Hi all,
I have two problems with endings of volta repeats:
1) I have a volta repeat with an alternative ending, like this:
\override Score.BarNumber #'break-visibility = #'#(#t #t #t)
\repeat volta 2 { r4 f r f }
\alternative { { r f r f } { r f r a, } }
d a d a
The two endings should have the same bar (=measure) number. But
lilypond increments the bar number of the second ending by 1. This is
pretty annoying, as I need to manually set the bar number, like this:
\override Score.BarNumber #'break-visibility = #'#(#t #t #t)
\repeat volta 2 { r4 f r f }
\alternative { { r f r f } {
\set Score.currentBarNumber = #2
r f r a, } }
d a d a
Is there a setting or something to do this automatically? Why isn't it
done by default anyway? (btw: the override command is just used to
demonstrate the problem, I only need the measure numbers at the
beginning of each line.)
2) I want to place a mark over the bar right after the second ending:
\repeat volta 2 { r4 f r f }
\alternative { { r f r f } { r f r a, } }
\bar "||" \mark "A"
d a d a
The "A" is printed above the bar of the second ending - it would be
prettier to have it right above the bar. I found this in the language
reference to shorten the bars:
\repeat volta 2 { r4 f r f }
\alternative { { r f r f } {
\set Score.voltaSpannerDuration = #(ly:make-moment 3 4)
r f r a, } }
\bar "||" \mark "A"
d a d a
Unfortunately, this closes the second bar with a vertical line for
some reason. How do I make it stay open? (or how do I print the "A" to
the same height as the bar without shortening it?)

Felix

This has been discussed here before. This is the way LilyPond works.
Lily's way is consistent with many printed scores even though your way
is sometimes done.

But yeah, sounds like work... I was looking at that, but ultimately, I don't think that will be good enough. What happens if the user wants to use a hand distribution bracket in the middle of an actual arpeggio? That's what I mean when I say "abusing" commands. I don't think we should get in the habit of doing things like using \arpeggio when we really mean \rightHandBracket (or whatever we'll end up calling it).

We have instrument-specific sections of the manual. Harmonics for string instruments can be introduced as \harmonic in the string instrument part of the notation. Silent presses (natural resonance) for keyboards can be taught in the keyboard part of the manual. The fact that both use diamond-shaped noteheads is irrelevant, as far as the manual is concerned, I think. Similarly, we can notate keySlap in woodwinds and deadNote in fretted strings. The fact that both use xNoteHead is irrelevant as far as the manual is concerned, IMO.

Does anyone have a suggestion?
Some time back I chose this missing bracket as a theme for a Scheme exercise.
Nothing revolutionary, just to get some practice in Scheme.
It has the limitations arising from misusing Arpeggio.
I found it needed a lot of different tweaks to get it to fit each situation,
so it ended up with the tweak options packed into a single string parameter.
My Scheme stuff is ready for beta testing,
but that would need an instruction manual explaining the tweaks.
I had to interrupt this documentation work a few months back,
and could probably resume fairly soon.
It would be nice if something like this could have its own engraver
and so avoid the Arpeggio-sharing limitations.

i get a clipped eps (or so it would appear), and a full ps and png. if i leave
out the --png, i get a clipped pdf.
am i doing this wrong, or is it not possible to get a png clip?
thanks,
ian
I couldn't get the clips in png format either, trying `lilypond
-dclip-systems --png clips.ly'
Maybe you use the `convert' command from ImageMagic to convert the eps
file to png?

attaching buzz marking in percussion
Instead of putting a single, double, or triple slash tremolo on a snare drum
note, how do you add the "z" as a roll?
\version "2.12.2"
\drums {
sn4 sn8 sn sn4 sn4:32
sn8 sn16 sn sn sn8 sn16 sn8 sn sn4
}
How would I add the "z" marking to the red snare example?

I want to download Lilypond notation programm
Hello, I am a Dutch composer who moved to Sweden to live there. Till I lived here in Sweden, I always used Finale, which I bought in Holland legally...but now they sent awful blockings, so that I had to register again...but did not have the registration-number anymore... And now all of my sheetmusic has been blocked...I cannot print my own legally made compositions any more!!! And worse, Finale-site gave me no opportunity to email them to say thisÄ! Very bad...and when I installed a so-called free Finale-notepad, they blocked me again! So now I reach out to Lilypond, and I hope to continue my composing and arranging..., I set some free to print things on internet, Can you help me: how do I have to download, can you send me the address or link? I would really appreciate it. In the past I used my Finale also for a lot of pupils to make them smile when playing nice arrangements of classical music. Please help!

Re: Best name for function to create cross-style noteheads

No need to maintain crossrefs and aliases in the documentation. [Might not be a huge thing, but it's a "clear advantage".] I don't think it's necessary to maintain crossrefs. We have instrument-specific sections of the manual. Harmonics for string instruments can be introduced as \harmonic in the string instrument part of the notation. Silent presses (natural resonance) for keyboards can be taught in the keyboard part of the manual. The fact that both use diamond-shaped noteheads is irrelevant, as far as the manual is concerned, I think. Similarly, we can notate keySlap in woodwinds and deadNote in fretted strings. The fact that both use xNoteHead is irrelevant as far as the manual is concerned, IMO. I think it would be the easiest way to define a neutral name first. Personally, I like the idea of \xHead, \xHeadOn and \xHeadOff. We can add the desired aliases later (maybe it will lead to a file simply designed for this purpose, called aliases.ly?). Perhaps there is even a possibility to create a documentation comparable to the feta font glyphs which is generated automatically from the contents of the file, so there are all cross references included (I don't know if this would work).

David Stocker wrote: Paul, Are you using Linux or Windows XP? After you install LilyPond, you'll have all the files you need for lilypond-mode to work right there in your installation directory. You'll just need to tell Emacs where to locate them. In your .emacs.d directory you'll need a file called "init.el" It may already be present. If it's not, create it. Did you mean .emacs? .emacs.d (in my home directory) is owned by root. Thanks, Paul ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
