Thanks to everyone who replied. I've once again been bitten bitten by the 
"assume" bug -- after 50 years of working with computers you'd think I 
would learn my lesson. Problem solved with the follwing simplified code:


An alternative, if you want unmetered music, is the following:

\relative c' { \key f \major
f8 f a a a a a a |

\cadenzaOn
g8 a bes4 g4 f2 \bar "|."
\cadenzaOff

}

Autobeam will not work with this approach (although manual beaming would) 
since unmetered music does not have beaming patterns.

ANN: Frescobaldi 2.0.12

2013-12-26 Thread Wilbert Berendsen

Hi all,

In keeping up with the good tradition of releasing a new version of 
Frescobaldi on Christmas, I happily and proudly annouce Frescobaldi 
2.0.12 to be out in the wild! This is a maintainance release with some 
improvements, massive internal changes and a new SVG view. This is the 
changelog:


* Translations:
  - updated: cs, nl, fr, es
* New features:
  - Edit->Select Block has finally been implemented
  - A viewer for LilyPond-generated SVG files has been added by Peter 
Bjuhr.
This viewer (accessible via Tools->SVG Viewer) currently has 
one-way point
and click. This only works with recent development versions of 
LilyPond,
that add the point and click information to SVG files. In the 
future, the

SVG view may become a fully fledged graphical music editor.
  - The default output format can be set in the LilyPond preferences (the
current options are PDF or SVG, the default is PDF)
* Improvements:
  - The indenter's handling of tabs and spaces has been improved. A tab 
always

starts a new indent level, and aligning is now always done with spaces.
The default is still using 2 spaces for indent, but it is now 
configurable

in a new settings panel Editor Preferences.
  - Besides the good old Preview and Publish modes a new mode has been 
added:
Layout Control. This mode uses the settings on the preview mode 
panel, which
has been renamed to Layout Control Options. The layout of the panel 
has been
improved. The Preview mode is reverted back to enabling only point 
and click
links. In the Engrave (custom) dialog the run mode can be chosen 
and the

commandline edited directly.
  - Entering staccatissimo writes -! when the document specifies a LilyPond
version >= 2.17.25, otherwise -|
  - When editing keyboard shortcuts, conflicts are directly shown as 
they are
entered; better support French keyboards (contributed by Nicolas 
Malarmey)

  - Better Mac OS X icons (contributed by Davide Liessi)
  - The internal handling of manipulations like transpose, translate, 
and the

various rhythm commands has become less dependent on Frescobaldi code.
These functionality now resides in the ly module and could be used by
other applications. The commands now can work on any ly.document, 
which

need not be a Frescobaldi document.
  - The internal help system has seen a massive overhaul: help files 
are now
very easy to write in a simplified markdown-like syntax. Adding 
help pages

is very easy by dropping a *.md file in the userguide/ directory. Every
paragraph in a help file is automatically added to the POT file and 
can be

translated by editing the language's PO file.
* Bug fixes:
  - Music View: horizontal scrolling using trackpad now works with 
kinetic mode

enabled. Fixes #248.
* Removed feature:
  - The 'master' variable is no longer supported, it's goal has been 
superseded
by the 'Always Engrave' option, which is also saved in the session. 
This
decision was taken to simplify the handling of files created on 
behalf of

a document.

Due to the revised help system, some large pieces of translatable text 
are now cut into paragraphs. This means translators are invited to 
revisit the translations, especially from the help pages. Many strings 
will be easily updated. The Html formatting in the help pages is 
removed, but some strings now expose basic inline markdown formatting. 
This is clearly indicated in the comment for a translatable string 
("Note: markdown formatting").


Enjoy, and please report bugs as usual!

The goal for Frescobaldi 2.0.13 is to adapt all LilyPond 2.18 syntax 
changes.


Merry Chrismas and a happy new year!!!
Wilbert and all the Frescobaldi contributors.

Phil,


Please always "reply all" so that others can also answer your questions and 
benefit from the answers.


Thanks -- I had looked at that but, as a new user, didn't want to worry 
about having to specify the beaming. I have enough problems learning this 
system to see if it will do what I want.


Manual beaming is a doddle:

g8 [ a ] bes4 g4 f2 \bar "|."

Note the square brackets after the note where you want beams to start and 
finish.


I'm using Scribus and including music snippets within text. Previously I'd 
been using Encore to score the music, producing a PDF and then extracting 
the part I wanted. I was hoping this would give me better control while 
keeping everything in a single document. So far it seems to work -- except 
that I'm having problems getting the snippet fixed to a particular size. 
I've tried this:


#(set-global-staff-size 7)
...

\paper {

left-margin = 0

indent = 0

line-size = 4\in

}




but the results seem inconsistent. Is there a better way?


I'm assuming it's inconsistency in the width.  Have you looked up 
"ragged-right" ?

This is probably not very helpful, but the only way I can think of
would be to rewrite the stencil from scratch in Scheme.

It's an Ubuntu thing. Just download the tar and sudo python/install and
you're all set! :)

Ubuntu ain't what it used to be, imo. New directions, new is not always
good.

There should be a property:

That would solve it!  =)

Use Lilypond’s built in voices:

\version "2.16.0"

melody = \relative c' {
\time 3/4
<< { \voiceTwo b,2 b4\rest } \\ { \voiceThree g'4 g g } \\ { \voiceOne 
d'2 d4\rest } >> | \break

Change the fourth line to

<< { \voiceTwo b,2 b4\rest } \\ { \voiceFour g'4 g g } \\ { \voiceOne d'2
d4\rest } >> | \break



The odd numbered voices will always have stems up and even voices will
always have down stems. I don't remember where it was but I remember
reading the numbering of voices should go from outside in; top and bottom
are one and two, the middle two are three and four.

One missing feature is that \mergeSkips doesn't look inside {...} to see if 
they are empty.  I often set breaks for proofreading and then remove them by 
defining them as an empty {}
  draftBreak = {} %% \pageBreak
  conductor = { s1*5 \draftBreak s1*3 }

I could make \mergeSkips {s1*5 {} s1*3} check if the {..} is completely empty 
and output s1*8, but if it gets too complicated for my sake its behavior will 
confuse and maybe frustrate somebody else.

The wrong quotes, Sir!.

Apart from that #:properties ((line-width 12)) will only use the 12 as a
default if it is left unspecified, and it never is unspecified.  You
need to use a non-predefined name for that kind of thing.

At any rate, the following should get you a bit further:

% BEGIN SNIPPET

\version "2.17.97"

#(define-markup-command (dialogue layout props charname text) (markup?
markup?)
(interpret-markup layout props
#{\markup \line {
\bold \concat { #charname : }
\override #'(line-width . 30)
  \wordwrap-string #text } #}))

\markup
\dialogue #"Kieren" #"This long line of text should wrap, into
a column narrow enough to allow for two of these side-by-side on a
single U.S. letter page. Furthermore, it should appear 'indented',
i.e., the text should all sit to the right of the rightmost edge of
the character name."

I'd actually lean towards _not_ using a markup? as the last argument but
a markup-list?.  Then the argument can be given as

\markup \dialogue Kieren { This long line ... }

which is more natural.

Agreed: turning on proportional notation should always be done with setting
the SpacingSpanner's uniform-stretching attribute to true. (And, as Karol
found out, the SpacingSpanner lives in the Score context.) This combination
of settings has spaced the notes of hundreds of polyrhythms for me exactly.
