My usual experience with using development versions of various pieces of software I frequently use is that they are, after you had a suitable distance (depending on the pace of development and the release cycles) to the last stable release, more reliable and fun to work with as long as you frequently update them. The quality at some point starts to be better than that of the last stable version. It is less consistent, however: you might pick a lemon that warrants another update (or downgrade) soon. So if you are planning on doing just one update per year, the last stable version might be a good bet. If frequent updates don't scare you, tracking the last development release or even the current development source habitually can be rewarding. Also you tend to know better about what changes important to you end up in the next stable version if you don't let yourself be surprised by all changes at once. And of course, it is more rewarding if you tend to strain Lilypond's capacities that you often get problems fixed in a reasonable time frame after your initial report. And if you dislike a particular change for a good reason, you'll get to see it sooner and can protest more effectively. -- David Kastrup ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Just so's you know what I did, here it is: 1. Compile each song in the normal manner to produce the song in PDF format. 2. Compile with the following to produce a PNG lilypond -dbackend=eps -dno-gs-load-fonts -dinclude-eps-fonts --png myfile.ly 3. In an OpenOffice document, set up the page size, two columns, etc 4. Make all the pages you want, and put the correct page numbers on the page 5. I also made my table of contents in the order I wished, so I could refer to it as I installed the PNGs 6. Load the PNG on the desired page. Immediately make it "wrap through". (This makes your filling of the document much easier.) Then re-size -- usually just cutting off a bit of the bottom of the page will do. 7. Do the same for each song in order. I realise that PNGs are not the best, but since these were being shrunk from original size, it doesn't seem to be a problem. Also, font-size is not totally uniform. But with relatively little work, and without a lot of geeky moves, I have a booklet that is now highly configurable. Thank you for your work, but IMO it was at least partly in vain. I guess a collection of .ly sources would be better for this audience. And a PDF containing vector data would be better (and probably smaller) for every audience. Of course (and very unfortunately) you cannot import vector data (i.e. PDFs) in some word processor, you’d need to employ a proper layout application (e.g. Scribus or InDesign) or typesetting system (TeX). Or use PDF tools to "glue" single lead sheets together with preface, ToC etc. from your word processor of choice. I myself compile my song booklets using ConTeXt with included LilyPond sources (a bit more mainstream would be using lilypond-book with LaTeX); there’s even an officially and legally printed booklet of mine with carols of the not-so-Christian type (e.g. winter/solstice/newyear songs). I’m using TeX’s index mechanism to get a sorted ToC automatically. But doing layout with TeX is not for the faint at heart.

Help for partial
Can someone help me with some strange effects in this score (a composition of Yiruma, in which I tried to combine the solo and right hand to make it easier to play). The piece starts with a partial, which is displayed on its own; why isn't it combined with a few more measures? And second: on page 2, third system, the last measure has some strange behavior. When I take off the \paper section, that measure moves up to the top of page 2, but the same thing happens. Kind regards, Maarten \version "2.12.3" \header { title = "The Things I Really...

How to make slurs ignore stems?
In regular modern scores it is logical that the ends of a slur attach to a notehead or to an end of a stem, depending on the direction of stems of the notes connected by the slur. I'm typesetting chant transcriptions and make stems transparent: \override Stem #'transparent = ##t Some slurs, attached to invisible stems, then "fly high over the notes". Is there any way to tell LilyPond to ignore stems when making slurs and attach slur always to noteheads? (I attach an image showing the problem. Red dots emphasize slurs attached to invisible stems.)

By default I never have an issue with Alsa and I run a realtime kernel. For me portmidi is the culprit. 2. with Jack (qjackctl) I launch qjackctl ==> jack_client_new: deprecated jack_client_new: deprecated TiMidity starting in ALSA server mode Opening sequencer port: 130:0 130:1 130:2 130:3 as you see the midi port has changed. Again I refresh the midi ports in Frescobaldi and I must select again TiMidity port 0 in the rolling list because "for old times' sake" I guess portmidi keep in memory the old port (128) not the new (130). This time the streaming is correct. If for one reason the midi port has changed in 1. or 2. you have to reset the Preferences. I don't want you spend an awful Christmas, surely not, I'm not the only one who appreciates your work very much. Rather consider it like a kind of bug report about the choice of portmidi, at least on Linux. i'm annoyed with myself for doing such a report when Christmas is not too distant future. :) Regards.

Re: Can a dynamics mark ignore a slur?
That workaround is a nice trick, thank you Xavier!
