new voice with cluster changes horizontal spacing

2017-05-19 Thread Klaus Blum 
Hi everybody, 

I want to have some clusters along with the notes in the same staff. 
However, if the clusters are preceeded by a "\new Voice" command, the
horizontal spacing changes. 
Does anybody know why this happens and how I can avoid it? 
Removing the "\new Voice" command would help, but I need to create a
dedicated voice. 

% -
\new Staff {
  c'4 d' e' f' g' f' e' d'
  <<
{c'4 d' e' f' g' f' e' d'}
\new Voice 
\makeClusters {c'4 d' e' f' g' f' e' d'}
  >>
  c'4 d' e' f' g' f' e' d'
}
% -

Thanks for any hint. 
Klaus

Lilypond newbie can't compile

2017-05-19 Thread William Zeitler 
I've installed (and uninstalled/reinstalled) the current LilyPond 
(2.18.2-1) on Windows 7 (with all the latest updates).


From the command line I'm compiling this example:

   \version "2.18.2"
   { c' c' c' c' }


with this command:

   lilypond Untitled.ly

It fails to compile:

Processing `C:/Users/william/Documents/Untitled.ly'
Parsing...
Interpreting music...
Preprocessing graphical objects...
Finding the ideal number of pages...
Fitting music on 1 page...
Drawing systems...
Layout output to `Untitled.ps'...
Converting to `./Untitled.pdf'...
warning: `(gs -q -dNOSAFER -dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=595.28 
-dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=841.89 -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH 
-r1200 -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=./Untitled.pdf -c.setpdfwrite 
-fUntitled.ps)' failed (1)


fatal error: failed files: "Untitled.ly"


It does generate Untitled.ps, but it is binary gibberish, and not the 
ascii postscript I would expect from a *.ps.


Your assistance is greatly appreciated!

Re: Lilypond newbie can't compile

2017-05-19 Thread Manuela Gößnitzer 
Is there any particular reason why you use 2.18 and not 2.19? Don't be
afraid of the term "unstable version", it works fine :-).

I would advise you to use Frescobaldi
http://lilypond.org/easier-editing.html as editor, this is a great help
especially for new users.

Greetings
Manuela
