Thanks a lot, Xavier. I agree staff changes are annoying, but this
should help the harp player to choose the right hand for the notes and
so it is sensible. Since I have a lot of these stuff, Is there a way for
a scheme function like this:
WriteInUpperStaff(#1) = { \cso #1 \csu }
How should I implement this?
I have found one measure that is a bit strange, see attached graphic.
The C note should be played in a octave to improve the sound. How to
notate this cross-staffed?

Great, this makes the notation much easier. I will use it exactly in

Oops, I forget one important thing. The "2O" "2U" may suggest there are
more instrument staves. The other staff names are "1O", "1U" and "3O"
"3U". Can I somehow use the function to switch between the two staffs
belonging to the particular instrument?
When I call \ud in the "2U" music it should switch between "2U" and
"2O". When used in "3U" is should use "3U" and "3O". Probably this can
be supported with some settings in the \score{} block.

Doc policy is 2-space indents, and in the case where you're

Micheal, if you want the repeat sign to be printed *after* the tempo sign, use the override shown in Notation Reference 1.4.1, Manual Repeat Marks (selected snippets).

Forget this. I erroneously assumed that I cannot use "up" and "down"

It's standard for the last alternative's bracket to look like your image shows unless the alternative is the last thing in the piece.

How to do simple arithmetic on bar numbers?
I'm preparing a modern-notation edition of a piece of choral renaissance
polyphony, in which the maxima at the end of each section is notated as
a neomensural "\maxima*n/m" (where, for each part, n,m are chosen to
cause all the parts to end the section together).
Example lilypond code and the result are attached.
Bar-numbering is attached to the top part in the score so, when that
part's maxima starts early and other parts are still moving, the other
parts sometimes have "extra" bars of music. As a result, I have to
reset the bar numbering manually afterwards (see line 27 of the example
attached):
\set Staff.currentBarNumber = #4
Rather than specifying a static bar number, how could the following
pseudocode be programmed?
\set Staff.currentBarNumber = Staff.currentBarNumber + x
where, in this example, x = 1
As you can tell, I'm not a Scheme programmer! Thanks for any help you
can offer.

the same thing that the snippet does, but only for bar number, and
with a parameter (the number to add, in case it isn't 1) could look
like this
addtobarnumber = #(define-music-function (P L m) (integer?)
#{
\applyContext
#(lambda (voice)
(let ((staff (ly:context-property-where-defined voice 'currentBarNumber))
(n (ly:context-property voice 'currentBarNumber)))
(ly:context-set-property! staff 'currentBarNumber
(+ $m n
#})
%% example
{ \override Score.BarNumber #'break-visibility = #'#(#t #t #t)
\key c \major
c''1
c'1
\addtobarnumber #3
c''1
c'1
}
I don't know how it will work but try it out.

Re: How to do simple arithmetic on bar numbers?
Thanks James, this is not quite what I'm looking for. If, using snippet 333, I keep Default_bar_line_engraver in the context of the top staff, it fails to count a \ibar in the lower part, but if I restore Default_bar_line_engraver to its normal context of Score, the top part gets a redundant barline from the lower part. Still hoping there's a solution somewhere... -- Graham On Sun, 2011-01-16 at 21:27 +, James Lowe wrote: > Hello, > > -Original Message- > From: Graham King > Date: Sun, 16 Jan 2011 21:11:25 + > To: "lilypond-user@gnu.org" > Subject: How to do simple arithmetic on bar numbers? > > >I'm preparing a modern-notation edition of a piece of choral renaissance > >polyphony, in which the maxima at the end of each section is notated as > >a neomensural "\maxima*n/m" (where, for each part, n,m are chosen to > >cause all the parts to end the section together). > > > >Example lilypond code and the result are attached. > > > >Bar-numbering is attached to the top part in the score so, when that > >part's maxima starts early and other parts are still moving, the other > >parts sometimes have "extra" bars of music.

Re: How to do simple arithmetic on bar numbers?
Jakob,
brilliant! it works!
I've restored Bar_number_engraver to the Voice context "Mean" to avoid
the spurious barline in that part. I then incorporated your code
(verbatim) and tried "addtobarnumber #1" in the Mean part just before
the double bar.
(Please ignore my previous reply, which fortunately didn't reach the
mailing list: I had mis-copied your code)
Your (and James') prompt and expert help late on a Sunday evening is
eloquent testimony to the spirit of this community. I'm so grateful.
