Re: choosing frets for harmonics

For a 5th harmonic, the TabStaff automatically chooses the 19th

music = {

>>
}
\score {
<<
\new Staff { \music }
\new TabStaff { \transpose c c, { \music } }

}
Is there a way to specify which among N alternative frets to use
when N > 1?
At the moment it's not possible but this issue is under discussion

If you want to get that to the end on a line on its own, why don't you just use a single staff and place the refrain music at the end? You can start it on a new line with \break.

Peter,

Hi, Peter,
I do, too, but there's another idea:
\score {
{ %% <-
\new Staff {
\key ... \time ...
\new Voice { ... }
\addlyrics { ... }
}
\new Staff {
...
}
} %% <-
}
Note that a score can only contain a single music expression, otherwise
the syntax is wrong by definition. You can achieve this by putting
braces around all the music which should be shown sequentially.
The double angle brackets, however, denote parallel music, with all
sections starting at the same point in time, which seems not to be what
you want.
If you want to get that to the end on a line on its
own, why don't you just use a single staff and place the refrain music
at the end? You can start it on a new line with \break.
+1. The most easiest way usually is using this approach and,
additionally, variables (look in the Learning Manual for details,
especially the section "Final touches > Organizing pieces with variables"):
stanzaMusic = { ... } %% only notes
stanzaLyrics = \lyricmode { ... }
refMusic = { ... }
refLyrics = \lyricmode { ... }
\score {
{ %% might be needed or not
\new Staff {
\key ... \time ...
\new Voice { \stanzaMusic \break \refMusic }
\addlyrics { \stanzaLyrics \refLyrics }
}
}
}
or something similar.
HTH,
Alexander

Thanks -- I didn't know about this list but I'll subscribe.
And of course I meant the 3rd harmonic. Silly me.

Lilypond-book --no-music option
Hello, I am making a lyrics booklet in latex and I have decided to add music notation to it as well, using lilypond-book. But I would like an easy way to switch between a text-only version and one containing the music. It would be nice not to have two different versions when editing them. I guess I could make a script to remove the lilypond-parts from the generated latex, but it would be nice not to do it by hand. I have seen that older versions of lilypond-book had a --no-music option, but that does not seem to be available anymore. Is there an easy way to do this? Or could this option perhaps be enabled again? Thanks for all help. /Magnus ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
mozart, k421
Dear community, I wanted to build the score of Mozart's quartet KV421, which I found on mutopia. Unfortunately it doesn't work, because the files are to old. Even updating with convert-ly doesn't work. Does someone know, what can be done to update these files?

re-learning markup sections
Hello,
I am re,reading the sections in NR about markups. The following confuses me,
because I can't find any wrong points in the last one. The madual says it has
no anchor point, so can't be moved. Can you give me any clues?
Also, I can't distinguish xx-align and xx-column. I think \left-align { "abc
def" "ghi jkl" } will be the same when using \left-column. What's the
difference? Could anyone give a plain text demo formatted with spaces?

Other than that try using convert-ly and then manually fixing the errors from there. If that seems to make it worse then you are going to have to manually fix all of it. In any case, I don't think there are any shortcuts to making it compile with the latest lilypond.

Re: re-learning markup sections
The first 2 examples have some text (Acte I for the first, \null as null text
for the second) and then a raise/lower command and then some more text. So in
each case, the second piece of text is raised or lowered with respect to the
first piece. So Scène 1 appears higher than Acte I. \null would be at the
normal position, and Très modéré is lowered with respect to it. In the final
example, there is nothing before Une forêt. and so there's nothing for it to be
raised with respect to - in other words, there's nothing that forms the
"anchor" for it's position to be changed with respect to.
\left-align puts all the text in the { } together on one line, left aligned.
\left-column puts each piece of text on a new line, left-aligned with respect
to each other. So \left-column { "The " "quick " "brown " } puts The on a line
above quick which is on a line above brown.

Can anybody help me with fret diagrams?
I tried out my first fret diagrams just recently and I ran into a puzzling situation. Whereas in standard guitar tuning, the A major chord diagram would look like this: aFretDiagram = \markup \fret-diagram #"6-o;5-o;4-2;3-2;2-2;1-o:" And the standard A7 diagram would look like this: asevenFretDiagram = \markup \fret-diagram #"6-o;5-o;4-2;3-o;2-2;1-o:" (I'm not worrying about fingering for now.) I have a custom way I like to play the A7 chord which imho provides a brighter 7th sound. It should look like this (using the same coding): asevenspecialFretDiagram = \markup \fret-diagram #"6-o;5-o;4-2;3-2;2-2;1-3:" That is, the standard A chord with the G (seventh) played on the first string at the third fret. But any time I tried that in my lead-sheet, all it would display was the standard A chord. The only way I could display an A7 chord was to use the standard one. Can anyone suggest how I'm going wrong? Thanks, Gordon+ -- Fr.

2 pages on 1 ?
Hi List. I have a LilyPond score printing to 11X17 paper in landscape mode. Most of the result -- with staves stretching fully across the page of course -- is looking okay. But one movement isn't. It's measures, nearly a half-page wide, would to my eye be most readable if they were arranged in two columns (to be read bar-to-bar *downwards* rather than across) with the columns separated by ca an inch of empty space and a top-to-bottom-of-page vertical line in the middle. Before pursuing ugly attempts to fool LilyPond into "allowing" this, I may as well ask -- Is there a straightforward way? Can you tell LilyPond: "The physical paper is 11x17, but just pretend that the "pages" you're printing are 11x8, and then print them two at a time side-by-side with this space & big vertical line in between"? (Or had I better just force an inch of empty mid-page staff, make that staff portion transparent, force whatever clef to print after it, and then later -- via a PDF editor -- cram in the vertical divider?) Thanks in advance for any suggestions! Pete ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: 2 pages on 1 ?
Multi-Column layout! I need that too. This is how I did this score (3 Columns)- http://www.twitpic.com/2pie84 1. Calculate the width (and height?) of each column; set the page size accordingly. (page width = column width) 2. Run LilyPond, output the score as PNGs. 3. Tailor PNGs. ImageMagick comes handy for this. Problems: 1. It's ugly job. 2. Not satisfied by the PNG's resolution. Score doesn't look sharp enough. Workaround: render to bigger sized PNGs from lily. 3. Page numbers, irrelevant and put in arbitrary columns. Again, is there a more appropriate way to setup multi-column scores?
