Re:Glissandos

2010-05-07 Thread Ossie Wilson Snr
My daughter is arranging a simple song to be sung by primary school children
in an eisteddfod  in the next few weeks and I am trying to typeset her
arrangement in LP (2.12.2 on WINDOWS XP). There are non lyric passages where
vocal sounds are used to indicate city noises, forest noises and ocean
noises. These are to be defined by pictorial impressions of the way the
sound fluctuates together with attached words like "Vrmmm", "bbring bbring"
etc on the song sheet submitted to the adjudicator before the performance
and the song must presented with no deviation from that format.

 

I have been using cross headed notes, arpeggios (with hidden notes), zigzag
glissandos (also with hidden notes) etc to show these effects. However, I
have struck a few problems.

 

1)   I would like to be able to vary the width and lengthy
of the zigzag on glissandos to better indicate the variation in pitch to be
obtained.

2)   Where noises vary from low pitch to high pitch and back
down again, I have been using a series of connected glissandos (hidden
notes) but there are gaps where the hidden notes are missing. I have
attempted to close these gaps by adding to the length of the individual
glissandos by changing the appropriate bound-details. This does lengthen the
glissandos appropriately but also raises their angle from the horizontal so
that the missing note space remains but at a higher pitch. I tried to avoid
this by using the same function but using X instead of Y e.g.
#'(bound-details right X). This did not work but showed no error in the log
and did not show the glissando at all in any shape. I realize I am
completely ignorant when it comes to modifying the behaviour of LP objects
and rely on what I am able to read that someone else has devised. 

Does anyone in the LP community have any practical advice on either or both
of these problems (not just read the manuals) or can they suggest other
symbols that already exist where these changes would not be required.

 

Thanks for your interest.

Website "easier editing"

2010-05-07 Thread Graham Percival
Hi all,

Colin Campbell has been working with me on the Introduction of the
new website.  However, we're still debating what to do with the
"Easier editing" page:
http://lilypond.org/website/easier-editing.html

In particular, should we:
  1) list all programs that help or produce lilypond input code on
 this page, or

  2) only list a few programs here and list the rest elsewhere?
 (probably somewhere in Usage, with a link from this page
 to that location)

When he began working, he had one opinion and I had the other.
But over the past four months, we've switched positions like a
finely-honed comedy act -- we still disagree, but we've both taken
up the other person's initial position.

The argument for #1: we have a unified place for people to look;
it's easier to update; it's easier to find; etc.

The argument for #2: it doesn't make sense to have algorithmic
programming environments like Strasheela and FOMUS in the same
list as Denemo, Frescobaldi, and LilyPondTool; having the extra
options will only confused newbies; if we keep 4 or 5
"highlighted" programs in this list and move the rest somewhere
else, it won't be much harder to maintain the list; etc.


I'm not particularly looking for votes on this issue -- rather,
I'm looking for reasons for (or against) #1 and #2 that we haven't
thought of.  It would be great if somebody said "we should do #x
because XYZ" and then have us go "of course!  XYZ!  That makes
everything totally clear; we all agree due to XYZ."


If you have other concerns about the website, please don't mention
them here.  I'll be posting other questions once this issue is
resolved.

Cheers,
- Graham

A somewhat pragmatic approach would be to use a single page suitably
subdivided if no scrolling is involved. Else use a two page solution.
The fewer pages a user has to link to the faster that person finds
what they are looking for.

Yeah, that's right. One page is better. But the order is important.

Re: Website "easier editing"

2010-05-07 Thread Bernardo Barros
For a user inexperienced new Lilypond user in programming (deal with
text and editors) I think he/she should make contact as fast as
possible with something like LilyPondTool. In this respect I think
this way should be as easy as possible for this type of new user.
Later he/she can choose a different method, but it's not likely that
he/she will stick with Lilypond if things become to uncommon in a
first moment. It's nice because it facilitate some common troubles for
new-users and it run on all platforms. I'm not saying it's the "best"
editor, but it's the best one for a first experience with Lilypond, in
my opinion. I like Emacs, I'm waiting to see more functionalities in
Emacs/lilypond-mode (maybe someone is doing extensions to
lilypond-mode right now???), but JEdit/Lilypond is running faster, I
think.

One solution would be ask if the new user have experience in this
respect? So it will be redirect to one of two different pages: one for
each case.

Re: Website "easier editing"

2010-05-07 Thread joe ferguson
How about a HTML table: Row per tool, significant attributes per
column?  Attributes would include things like "GUI", "TEXT MODE", "TOOL
MATURITY", "FEATURES", and a link to a fuller description and additional
link in the description to where to get the tool. Descriptions include
constraints, equipment requirements, etc.

The value of the page itself to the user depends much on the search
sophistication of the user.  Some will like one approach, some another. 
If the summary page can convey enough info to be useful without
scrolling, fine, but that shouldn't be a major consideration. If the
user prefers a graphical tool, for instance, (s)he won't be discouraged
by a bit of scrolling!

Ossie,

Would something like this work?:


\version "2.13.16"
#(set-global-staff-size 24)


\header {
  title = "Clusters snippet"
}

\layout { ragged-right = ##t
\context { \Voice \override ClusterSpanner #'minimum-Y-extent = 
#'(-0.5 . 0.5)} 
}


fragment = \relative c' {
  \time 4/4 
  2 2 |
   
}

<< \new Staff \makeClusters \fragment
\new Staff \fragment
>>
-



(I tried to make the clusters thinner with no success. Maybe someone else 
can say how to do that.

Or can you output lilypond to svg and add or fill in the glissandos you 
want using Inkscape?

For the width use:
  \override Glissando #'zigzag-width = #2  %% default: 0.75

For the length I would do it with hidden notes in parallel small value:

  g2\glissando c  %% normal
  << { g2\glissando c }  %% bigger space -> longer glissando
\new Voice { \hideNotes \repeat unfold 8 g16 g2 \unHideNotes } >>

I am completely ignorant about that too.

But according to the doc (internals) the #'bound-details value should
be in the form:
#'((right (attach-dir . 0) (padding . 1.5)) (left (attach-dir . 0)
(padding . 1.5)))

Which code did you try actually?

changes in lilypond-mode.el to process lytex?

2010-05-07 Thread josé henrique padovani

Hi..
I have made some changes on my lilypond-mode.el (for emacs) to process 
.lytex files with the commands...


lilypond-book --pdf yourfile.lytex
pdflatex yourfile.tex


I would like to know who maintains lilypond-mode and how can I help to 
add these commands to the sources?


(I was having problems to use the default "Book" and "LaTeX" commando of 
lilypond-mode menu.)


thanks
josé

i have tried 

\book {
  \bookpart {
\score {
  \new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff = "upper" <<
  \new Voice { \upperVoiceRightHand }
  \new Voice { \lowerVoiceRightHand }
>>
\new Staff = "lower" <<
  \new Voice { \upperVoiceLeftHand }
  \new Voice { \lowerVoiceLeftHand }
>>
  >>
}
\header {
  title = "___"
  %composer = "Richie Gress"
  copyright = "© 2010 Richie Gress"
  %piece = "Ice Waltz"
  subtitle = "I. Ice Waltz"
}
  }
  \bookpart {
\score {
  \new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff = "upper2" <<
  \new Voice { \upperVoiceRightHandb }
>>
\new Staff = "lower2" <<
  \new Voice { \upperVoiceLeftHandb }
>>
  >>
}
\header {
  title = "___"
  subtitle = "II. Folle Vecchia Insegnante Musica"
  copyright = "© 2010 Richie Gress"
}
  }
}

… and i got both the titles + subtitles (just a little complaint about
colliding notes…)
hope this is what you need!

Hi,

According to the AUTHORS page
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/topdocs/AUTHORS

  Chris Jackson, Emacs mode indentation.
  Heikki Junes, Major Emacs- and Vim-mode updates.
  David Svoboda, what-beat emacs module.

Their e-mail addresses can be obtained through the page.  ;-)

But I suppose sending a PATCH on lilypond-de...@gnu.org would be just
fine to help to add these commands to the sources.
 + Cc: to Chris, Heikki and David ; appreciated.

Cheers,
Xavier

Re: Hacking Lyqi to use quater-tones

Huh, actually I've rewritten this emacs extension completely, but it fits
my needs, and may not be suitable for any other. It is possible to use midi
on OSX.  As for quater tones, adapting the existing code should be straight
forward.  If you like, we'd rather discuss that privately.

I tried this code from the Notation manual.

\once \override Glissando #'(bound-details right Y) = #-2

Which can be used to alter the left end by substituting left for right.

Will try the code suggested later when I do my chores and can get to my
other computer downstairs.

Thanks for your interest.

That just changes the angle of the line, so you'll still be left with a gap.

Try overriding 'padding instead:

\relative c' {
  \once \override Glissando #'(bound-details right padding) = 0
  c\glissando
  \hideNotes
  \once \override Glissando #'(bound-details left padding) = 0
  c'
  \glissando
  \unHideNotes
  c,
}

Cheers,
Neil
