I've downloaded 2.13.11 and compiled all the snippets in
the pitches section of the Notation Reference without
error.  Could you please post a short example which shows
the problem.

vertical spacing issue

2010-01-17 Thread Helge Kruse

Hello,

I think, vertical spacing issues have been discussed often here. But 
even playing around with VerticalAxisGroup doesn't get my score in an 
acceptible design.


The demerit is that the staves are pinned together while the dynamics 
line gets huge space. Can you get me a hint, what I have to tweak to 
control the spacing -- and probably same important where I have to add 
the tweaks?


The complete score is at http://dj1na.gmxhome.de/score/LR3.ly

Best regards,
Helge

ANN: Frescobaldi 1.0.1 released and new development features

2010-01-17 Thread Wilbert Berendsen
Hi all,

Frescobaldi 1.0.1 has been released, a bugfix release in the stable 1.0 
branch, including some bugfixes and stability improvements and a new Galician 
translation contributed by Manuel A. Vázquez.
Download: http://lilykde.googlecode.com/files/frescobaldi-1.0.1.tar.gz

The development branch is also shaping up nicely, and is quite usable even if 
there is not yet a package release.

Most compelling new feature in the development branch is that you can 
configure multiple versions of LilyPond (installed on different places on your 
system; the binaries don't need to be in your PATH). You can configure a 
default version to use, but Frescobaldi can also choose a suitable version of 
LilyPond depending on the \version statement in your document. A custom Run 
LilyPond dialog has been added (Ctrl+Shift+M or shift-click the LilyPond icon) 
to choose a particular version and set other parameters for a LilyPond run).

This way you can play and test with development releases of LilyPond while 
still using a stable LilyPond for your production work.

Other niceties are that it is possible to assign keyboard shortcuts to 
articulations in the Quick Insert panel (right-click the articulation 
buttons), and a new dialog to insert characters from the Unicode table. Some 
expansions in the Expansions Dialog now have default keyboard shortcuts. The 
documentation has been improved.

You can get the development branch of Frescobaldi by entering these commands:

svn checkout http://lilykde.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/frescobaldi
cd frescobaldi
cmake . && make && sudo make install

You can keep your copy of Frescobaldi up-to-date with:

cd frescobaldi
svn update && cmake . && make && sudo make install

The development branch of Frescobaldi requires Python 2.6, KDE 4.2 or higher 
and SIP 4.9.1 or higher (at least 4.9.3 recommended). See also the INSTALL 
file in the frescobaldi directory.

Bug reports and wishes are very welcome.
Enjoy and best regards,
Wilbert Berendsen

Adding Rehearsal Marks, v2.12.2

This is a wonderful example of a bad question. (In fact, it isn't a  
question at all.) It lacks context, anyone attempting to help you  
will need more information. Have you read http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/ 
smart-questions.html ? It's not a very long read, and the topics it  
covers are very useful. The few things I would say to you are:
1) Read the Learning Manual once through. It's not very long, and  
it's a very useful tool to understanding how to get what you want out  
of lilypond.
2) do a quick search on the mailing list archive at http:// 
lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/ for your topic. The default  
search is by score, but I find reverse chronological order to usually  
be more helpful.


After all that is done:

1) Ask a question (not simply a statement of need)
2) when asking your question, make it specific. As this is a  
volunteer program, you're more likely to be helped if you help  
yourself. Tell us what you want to do, what you've tried, and what  
the result has been. That provides much needed context.___

>This is probably best answered in the Notation Reference, section  
> 3.3.2, different editions from one source

I looked through that section, but it wasn't clear to me how that solves my
problem.

I'm doing instrumental parts for a double-choir Bach motet.  The result will
be 9 parts (2 each of Vln I, Vln II, Vla, Cello + Double Bass).  With 30
rehearsal letters in the piece, I don't want to have to do that in 9
separate parts if I can avoid it.  Not to mention if (heaven forbid!) there
were any changes.

What I ended up doing was:

1) creating a separate part containing only rests AND the rehearsal letters.
2) I then added this part to my individual part \score { } sections.
3) Finally, I used \override to hide all staves with rests-only.

I just wasn't sure whether there was a better (standard?) way to do this.

Yes.

1. Create a global variable — in it, include all time signatures, key 
signatures, rehearsal letters, tempo changes, etc.: anything that every part 
should contain. [Note: To "kill time", use skips, *not* rests!]
2. Create variables for each part's music.
3. Combine (using << ... >>) the global variable with the part's music variable 
in the score and part(s).

There are lots of examples in the LSR and docs on how to do this.

Good luck!
Kieren.

It's possible to resurrect these graphics by calling LilyPond on the

buried under a ton of other LilyPond-related work that I can't do this
myself.  If you think that Guide is worthwhile besides what already

send your request for resurrecting graphics on that wiki page to

I would be willing to regenerate all of the missing graphics if  
someone would be able to put them in the proper place.


Why do you think they disappeared?

As I don't know Scheme very well, I need assistance with the

However, these are limited to numerated time signatures only.  Any

One Line Column Markup

Hi, I'm sure what i'm trying is quite simple but I can't find the solution.

Is there a way of printing a column in the space of one standar line?

\version "2.12.2"
\markup{
4
 \column { \super a . }
}


These gives me something like these:

  a
4
   .

Not what I'm looking for. What I need is to put the "a" character over
the "." character and both in the same line hight of the "4"

I hope its clear. Thanks to anybody.

In the settings folder of jedit, ~/.jedit or c:\documents and
