Ignore stems
Hello everybody,
I want to try having Lyrics placed without regard for any stems in the
adjacent staff (and then using whiteout to remedy the clash, of course).
The below approach doesn’t work. Why? Can I make it work?
Best, Simon
\version "2.23.6"
\layout {
\context {
\Lyrics
\override LyricText.show-vertical-skylines = ##t
\override VerticalAxisGroup.nonstaff-relatedstaff-spacing =
#'((padding . 0.2))
}
\context {
\Voice
\override Stem.show-vertical-skylines = ##t
\override Stem.vertical-skylines = #'()
}
}
<<
{ b'4 }
\addlyrics { M }
{ a'4 }
\addlyrics { M }
>>

From grob.cc:
Grob::Grob (SCM basicprops)
{
[...]
if (scm_is_null (get_property_data (this, "X-extent")))
set_property (this, "X-extent", Grob::stencil_width_proc);
if (scm_is_null (get_property_data (this, "Y-extent")))
set_property (this, "Y-extent",
Unpure_pure_container::make_smob
(Grob::stencil_height_proc,
Grob::pure_stencil_height_proc));
if (scm_is_null (get_property_data (this, "vertical-skylines")))
set_property (this, "vertical-skylines",
Unpure_pure_container::make_smob
(Grob::simple_vertical_skylines_from_extents_proc,
Grob::pure_simple_vertical_skylines_from_extents_proc));
if (scm_is_null (get_property_data (this, "horizontal-skylines")))
set_property (this, "horizontal-skylines",
Unpure_pure_container::make_smob
(Grob::simple_horizontal_skylines_from_extents_proc,
Grob::pure_simple_horizontal_skylines_from_extents_proc));
}
In English: these properties (X-extent, Y-extent, horizontal-skylines,
vertical-skylines) have implicit defaults, which are given when the
property is found not to be set. Now you're setting them to the empty
list, which for some reason (David calls it a Lispism, I agree with
him) has been chosen as the value representing lack of value, so the
default gets applied. Try #f instead.

You'll typically need to use negative padding to get overlapping ink. \override VerticalAxisGroup.nonstaff-relatedstaff-spacing = #'((minimum-distance . 4.5) (padding . -2)) -- Aaron Hill

Hi all, > This can be a snippet in the docs, as far as I'm concerned. Why wouldn't this be a candidate for a patch? I feel like some developers have an aversion to sugar… but for me, it's the highest-impact sales tool when I'm Lily-vangelizing. :) Cheers, Kieren.

Try #f instead. thanks a lot for the expert explanation! I was so sure that I have always seen people use #'() for clearing skylines that I didn’t try the obvious alternative. Best regards! Simon

Microsoft often considers unfamiliar downloaded executables as "guilty until proven innocent." Where it says the download is unsafe, there should be options for opening it anyhow. It might say "Options" or "Advanced." -- Karlin High Missouri, USA

When the previous typesetter states "with pedal", what exactly does this mean?
HI; When the previous typesetter states "with pedal", what exactly does this mean? I think it means "hold the sustain pedal from the beginning all the way through to the end". But it could mean that the sustain pedal should be used in all cases that it makes sense to the performer. In this case, what should be done to make the midi sound correct? Thanks, Ken Wolcott
Re: When the previous typesetter states "with pedal", what exactly does this mean?
In most cases this would mean use the pedal in an ad libitum fashion and not play it dry without the use of the sustain pedal.

When I show someone that you can install "vanilla" Lilypond, just type
something like
\version "2.23.4"
randomNotes = {
$@(let ((notes (ly:music-property #{ #} 'elements)))
(map (lambda (x) (list-ref notes (random (length notes (iota 400)))
}
\new Voice { \randomNotes }
and [every time you compile you] get random notes for interval practice, it
blows their mind.
Writing
\language "english"
\include "init_schenker.ly
