Re: How to create a coda with a gap?

2010-11-25 Thread Dominic Neumann
Hi Gilles, hi Vincente and all,

thank you both for your answers. They helped me very much.
The only problem that I still have is that the first volta bracket has no end.

I played around with this as you, Gilles, said that using a "|." bar the 
bracket has an end line.
So I wrote this:

\override Staff.BarLine #'transparent = ##t
\bar "|."
s4
\override Staff.BarLine #'transparent = ##f
\bar "||"

This helps! But now there is too much space between the volta end line and the 
"||" bar line. I tried changing the duration of the s4 but it didn´t change 
anything.
Then I moved the bar line, the key signature and the segno sign to the left. 
But there are still the staff lines going far too right.

Any ideas how to solve this?

Yours
Dominic

Hi.

Maybe the attached file helps somewhat for this item.

> 4. The first volta bracket doesn´t have an end line.

I noticed that using
  \bar "|."
prints the vertical end line, while
  \bar "||"
does not.

At startup, lilypond adds its own font directories to the list of
directories already controlled by fontconfig.  This is even
controllable by the end user with ly:font-config-add-directory and
ly:font-config-add-font in case you want to make more fonts known to
lilypond.

You can make the "|." merely look like "||" by saying  

 \once \override Score.BarLine #'thick-thickness = #1.9



That way you don't need the s4 and the extra-(X-)offsets: 

 \set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f))
 \bar "|."
 \once \override Score.BarLine #'thick-thickness = #1.9
 \key f \major
 \stopStaff

I bit the bullet and went through all 100-odd guitar music publications I've
collected over the years, from publishers around the world on every
continent,
across multiple genres (although admittedly mostly classical and South
American).  The set includes many volumes whose purpose is purely
didactic.   And yet I was only able to find three books that use this
notation.

So I suspect that "standard" isn't exactly the right word to use here. :-)
It's probably better to say that it's the "correct" way of guitar notation
-- one
that is satisfying from a theoretician's standpoint, but rarely used in
practice.

I'm wavering at the moment, but I'd at least like to have it as an option.
I experimented a bit and found that this variant works:

\override Staff.OctavateEight #'stencil = ##f

Re: lilypond output to pdf

Can you tell me what has been changed by making the update lilypond to
version 2.13.5.
I don't have a problem with lilypond 2.13.4.
The problem of output tot pdf starts with using the version 2.13.5 and
higher.

Re: lyrics notgoing with triplet

2010-11-25 Thread Jan-Peter Voigt

Hello Jay,

with \autoBeamOff the melismaBusyProperty is set beam sensitive, so  
your manual beams span a melisma.
But you can control this behaviour with \set melismaBusyProperties =  
#'()
In this vector you can specify any of #'(melismaBusy slurMelismaBusy  
tieMelismaBusy beamMelismaBusy)

Without beamMelismaBusy every note in the triplet gets a syllable.

And now to something completly different: You typed "un- touched", did  
you mean "un -- touched"? The "--" triggers lyric hyphens.


Regards,
Jan-Peter

I have two guitar publications using this notation (treble clef with
explicit 8 at the bottom).

Frankly, the absence of this mark in many of the scores annoys me very much.
Nobody gets hurt by this tiny 8, and its presence clarifies things. In my
opinion we should support it, there's no point in sticking to a wrong habit
:)

Jan-Peter-
thank you, in the past I haven't included
\autoBeamOff so I've not run into that problem.
As for the hyphen- no it's correct.
Thanks again.
Jay

I bit the bullet and went through all 100-odd guitar music
publications I've
collected over the years, from publishers around the world on
every continent,
across multiple genres (although admittedly mostly classical and South
American).  The set includes many volumes whose purpose is purely
didactic.   And yet I was only able to find three books that use
this notation.

So I suspect that "standard" isn't exactly the right word to use
here. :-)
It's probably better to say that it's the "correct" way of guitar
notation -- one
that is satisfying from a theoretician's standpoint, but rarely
used in practice.


I have two guitar publications using this notation (treble clef with 
explicit 8 at the bottom).


Frankly, the absence of this mark in many of the scores annoys me very 
much. Nobody gets hurt by this tiny 8, and its presence clarifies 
things. In my opinion we should support it, there's no point in 
sticking to a wrong habit :)


Guitar scores I have (about a metre of shelf space) seem to be split 
about half and half between those showing the 8 under the clef and those 
without it.
