Re: subdivideBeams problem
Hi Neil, I also came across this problem in the past but for some reason didn't bother to solve it. AFAICS this is not sufficiently documented. As Hanna Geisel says you are only directed to set beatLength in the snippet "Sub-dividing beams" (http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/notation/beams). Is there another place in the docs giving the information you posted here? Otherwise I would open an issue in the tracker, OK?

I think I followed the instructions from the manual correctly, but the subdivision just doesn't work, where's my mistake? You're almost there. There are just two more changes required: 1) You've set beatLength to 1 8, so you also need to set beatGrouping to ensure the beats are grouped in sets of two: \set beatGrouping = #'(2 2) 2) The above still doesn't work with demisemiquavers, since there are some default beaming rules which still need reverting. Here are the default rules from scm/auto-beam.scm: ;; in 2 4 time: ;; use beatLength for all except 32nd notes ;; end beams with 32nd notes each 1 8 beat ((end 1 32 2 4) . ,(ly:make-moment 1 8)) ((end 1 32 2 4) . ,(ly:make-moment 2 8)) ((end 1 32 2 4) . ,(ly:make-moment 3 8)) The first and last rules here should be reverted (you can ignore the second rule if you like; it matches the beat grouping you want, so can be ignored): #(revert-auto-beam-setting '(end 1 32 2 4) 1 8) #(revert-auto-beam-setting '(end 1 32 2 4) 3 8) I also didn't manage to find the file scm/music-functions.scm, where can I find that? It depends on your operating system.

Hmm right... Some kind of win-win situation would be not so bad... maybe. They use lilypond and optimize the MIDI functionality and pop-music scores and give those code changes back to Lilypond (this is also needed with a LGPL license?). Firefox and OpenOffice and JACK seems to use the LGPL license. \r ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

I would do it so: (more or less)
\version "2.13.29"
patternA = \relative {
\repeat tremolo 8 { e32*2/3[ c a] }
}
\new Staff {
<<
{
\voiceOne
\patternA

\voiceFour
\shiftOff
\patternA

The syntax has changed since 2.13.28 was released, so this snippet's out of date. You can see how it will look once 2.13.29's released here: http://www.kainhofer.com/~lilypond/Documentation/notation/beams.html There won't be any changes made to the 2.12 docs.

DocBook and lilypond-book
Hi, recently I've been playing with DocBook and lilypond-book, in order to evaluate if it could be a good tool to write a small tutorial about LilyPond. The first time I tried I managed to get the rendered .png, using the example in Usage 3.2.4 as a starting point. Then time passed and I tried again the same code (well, I'm not so sure about it... it's time to learn Git maybe :)) but the code is not rendered anymore. I'm using version 2.13.28. Just to be sure, I've tried an older version (2.13.23), but nothing changes. So the solution is probably the easier one: I'm totally missing something. Could you please tell me what's wrong in tha attached tiny example (I've just copied and pasted the snippet in the doc)? The commands I use are the following: lilypond-book -o out test.lyxml xsltproc -o test.html /usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh/xhtml/docbook.xsl out/test.xml Thanks for your help, Federico test.lyxml Description: application/docbook ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Lilypond for FL Studio ...
They can still make money with GPL. Yes, they are not going to do that. They can export to .ly format and support LilyPond development with employees or money. That's also good option. 2010/7/21 Alexander Kobel : > On 2010-07-18 14:53, Valentin Villenave wrote: >> >> On Fri, Jul 16, 2010 at 8:25 AM, Jean-Marie Cannie >> wrote: >>> >>> We are the developers of FL Studio (formerly known as Fruityloops) >>> and we are looking to print music sheets direct from our software. >> >> Greetings, >> >> whilst I'm certain we all appreciate this tribute to LilyPond's >> quality and reliability, you have to know that GNU LilyPond is free >> software (GPLv3 licensed), and as such it cannot be embedded in (nor >> link to) non-free software. > > Wait a minute, is this real? > > MacOS X ships with XCode.

Information about Vim mode in the manual
Hi everybody,
I don't know if someone ever went trough this, but I spend a lot of time
trying to figure out why the syntax highlight in Vim didn't work.
I followed all the instructions in the manual (
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond-program/Vim-mode)
but it didn't work at all.
Also, I noticed that syntax highlight ofr other languages worked (like html
for instance)
After a lot googling and tryings I discovered that the problem was that my
"~/.vim/filetype.vim" (wich in my ubuntu 10.04 is placed at
/usr/share/vim/vim72/filetype.vim) already had some configurations,
including the following lines:
---code---
if exists("did_load_filetypes")
finish
endif
augroup filetypedetect
---end---
So what I was doing is that I was pasting exactly the code in the manual at
the end of my "filetype.vim", and that of course doubled the code above so
the highlight simply didn't work.
I think that In the manual it should be told that the code above must appear
ONLY ONCE in the "filetype.vim" and if it is already there, than the user
should paste only the following lines:
---code---
au! BufNewFile,BufRead *.ly,*.ily setf lilypond
augroup END
--end---
Other than that, maybe this message help someone that is having the same
trouble that I had.
Bye,
Caio Barros
