choosing less narrow spacing so that the pedal mark doesn't collide with the
previous note seems to help:
\new Voice {
\override Score.SpacingSpanner #'base-shortest-duration = #(ly:make-moment
16) \pedals
}

Re: Calculate BarLine 'kern to fit with a given stencil-x-extent
Hi Harm,
Here's a new function that's a little better than the previous one.
\version "2.17.21"
%% A markup-command for better viewing and the possibility
%% to read out some values
#(define-markup-command (rectangle layout props x) (number?)
" returns a rectangle "
(let ((osc (ly:output-def-lookup layout 'output-scale))
(pt (ly:output-def-lookup layout 'pt)))
;; (display "\n\t'output-scale \t")(write osc)
;; (display "\n\tpt from layout \t")(write pt)
;; (display "\n\t(* osc pt) \t")(write (* osc pt))
;; (newline)
(interpret-markup layout props
(markup #:stencil (make-filled-box-stencil `(0 . ,x) '(0 . 3))
\paper {
indent = 30
%% #(display "\n\tpt from within \\paper \t")
%% #(write pt)
}
\layout {
% Better viewing:
\override Score.RehearsalMark #'color = #red
\override Score.RehearsalMark #'layer = #10
\override Score.RehearsalMark #'extra-offset = #'(0 . -2.5)
}
%% Test here with different values:
#(define staff-size 16)
#(set-global-staff-size staff-size)
%%% here's the function :
#(define (adjust-kern x-lngth)
(*(* 19.33 (- 1.004 (exp (* -0.03604 staff-size x-lngth))
show =
#(define-music-function (parser location x-length)(number?)
"
returns some test-music, with the rectangle and tweaked BarLine.kern
"
#{
\set Staff.instrumentName =
\markup \fontsize #-1 \center-column {
"stencil/kern-length?"
#(number->string x-length)
}
R1
\mark \markup
\rectangle #x-length
\override Staff.BarLine.kern = #(adjust-kern x-length)
\bar "||"
R1
#})
\header {
title = "Adjust BarLine 'kern to stencil-extent"
subtitle = #(format #f "Used global-staff-size: ~a" staff-size)
subsubtitle = \markup \vspace #2
}
\show #1
\show #2
\show #10
\show #20
%%%
See herewith the comparaison between the measured figures (blue curve) and
the calculated ones (orange curve).
I'm still very curious about what you'll do with it...
Cheers,
Pierre

hi Andrew
first I think it will often look a little strange if you have stems going up
and down because of the attachment of the stems to the left or right of the
note head - even if the note heads are evenly spaced the stems will look
uneven.
in *NR 4.5.5 Proportional notation* there is a few proposals how to define
proportional settings.
and with \newSpacingSection it is alway possible to redefine or revert these
settings
I have set
\layout {
\context {
\Score
proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment 1/32)
\override SpacingSpanner.uniform-stretching = ##t
\override SpacingSpanner.strict-note-spacing = ##t
\accidentalStyle dodecaphonic
}
}
and this looks quite reasonable to me.

stylesheets, defaults, and other in-Pond-erables
Hello all, I'm going full-bore on getting some of my scores re-engraved in the next month or so. (They tend to be cram-engraved under pressure for the premiere, and then never returned to due to the next commission on the docket…) As a result, I'm hoping to break out a series of stylesheets (or stylesheet sets): instrument (e.g., violin) solo piano solo piano + vocal piano + solo instrument organ solo instrumental ensemble (e.g., piano quartet) chorus a cappella orchestra orchestra + chorus I would love for the fruits of my labour to benefit the Lilypond community, in the sense that some of the overrides might become defaults, and the other files might be presented as a package of easily-included templates/files distributed with (or nearby) the application/binary/docs. To that end, I'm hoping to get suggestions about particular scores in the above categories which the Lilypond community would consider benchmarks. We used to claim to use Barenreiter as the benchmark, so I suppose that might be the place to start? Any references would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Kieren. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

What kinds of things would it be helpful to make sure such benchmark scores include? Is this simply a call for "the best-looking scores in existence, for each category", or is there more to it than that? (For example, is it helpful to have music that's difficult for Lilypond to set, or would that just be a distraction?) -- David R ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
