vertical spacing issue
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?

ANN: Frescobaldi 1.0.1 released and new development features
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 -- Frescobaldi, LilyPond editor for KDE: http://www.frescobaldi.org/ Nederlands LilyPond forum: http://www.lilypondforum.nl/ ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Adding Rehearsal Marks, v2.12.2

(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.___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: Adding Rehearsal Marks, v2.12.2
>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. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Is it possible to resurrect these graphics? Without them, the Guide is mainly just frustrating. It's possible to resurrect these graphics by calling LilyPond on the source snippets that should still be present in that Guide, but I'm so 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 exists -- especially check out the section Introduction of lilypond.org future website and the tutorial this Introduction guides to (the tutorial are two first chapters of the Leraning Manual), then please send your request for resurrecting graphics on that wiki page to LilyPond users list lilypond-u...@gnu.org.

Re: Compound time signature in early music
Apologies for the earlier errant message; most of the original message disappeared in transit it seems. As I don't know Scheme very well, I need assistance with the following problem. I would like to create a compound time signature, but with one of the columns consisting only of a time signature symbol rather than a pair of numbers e.g., C 6/2. I'm aware of the example in the LSR and one written to this list by Valentin some time ago: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2008-01/msg00623.html However, these are limited to numerated time signatures only. Any help with my grob mystery would be appreciated. Mark ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
