Absolutely!

Talking about utilities: Has anybody ever seen one that transforms a simple
voice (pitches and durations) into a "ghost voice" consisting of spacers and
durations only  (e.g. c2 d e ==> s2 s s). This is very useful for writing
simultaneous voice parts where one contains pitches, another dynamics, a
third fingering instructions ... This can easily be used to print a score
with or without fingerings or other attributes!

Thanks!

NB: You can also transpose from absolute to relative (and vice versa)
creating midi output and convert this back to ly (midi2ly) with the
appropriate options!

Not really - I have no idea what you mean with a custom context: is that in
Lilypond or somewhere else?

I thought of using a find and replace action in a common editor, probably
using regular expressions.
I know I can find simple notes and durations by searching for something like
\<[a-gs.]*([ ]*[0-8.]*)\> and replace them by s\1

But then you have all these accidentals or chords...

Thanks a lot anyway!

Maybe I wasn't to clear in my formulation - you're a step ahead.

I need a voice with spacers only (+durations) which I can edit and to which
I attach the different attributes.

I tried to use your nice little function with \displayLilyMusic but
something fails when you add a chord :

notes = { a2-"hello"  b4 r b2 a-"bye"  < c e g c' >1-"oho"  }

{ \displayLilyMusic \skipMusic \notes } 

results in 

{ s2-"hello"  s4 s s2 s-"bye"  s s s s -"oho" } 

note the 4 "s" where it should be s1!

first i get the impression that the available space is not fully exploited
everywhere (only in the bracket style example) - maybe using that space
could help

if this is still not enough then of course it would be nice to extend a
little bit up or down would help - if a composer wants to have an arpeggio,
he probably would like it to be seen!

hi

not really  - the position seems to be absolute - something around pitch c''
- and if you have to transpose or change anything you will have to
recalculate everything!

is there a function to do this automatically?!

after playing around a bit (really enjoying...) with this idea i came to a
quite satisfactory solution.
as i mentioned, using \override Arpeggio #'positions = #'(-1 . 1 ) leeds to
unexpected results with some arpeggio styles.

in summary 

- arpeggioBracket works on its own
- arpeggioParenthesis needs positions 1 . 1 + \tweak for a correction of the
vertical alignement
- the others need positions -0.5 . 0.5 + \tweak for a correction of the
vertical alignement

you can see the results (and the source of course) in the attached files!

i have the same problem in version 2.11.57 and since i am creating the voice

the output looks ok for me, too, so it is just a little bit annoying!

U can even omit *system-count = #4* and it will fit in 3 systems (at least

fingering (/w staff-padding) + textscript and script-priority

2008-10-15 Thread Eluze

in the score below the fingering indication of the first note (fis) can be
written above+near the notehead using \override TextScript #'script-priority
=#205 or higher. if it is 204 or lower, the text appears nearer to the
staff.
how can this be explained? - i would have expected the relation between the
TextScript and the Fingering priority to determine which comes first?!
what's the magic about these numbers? where am i mistaken?

\score { 
  \context Staff {   
\clef "treble_8" 
\key e \minor 
\time 3/4
\context Voice="top" {
\voiceOne
\textLengthOn
\override Fingering #'script-priority = #10
\override Fingering #'staff-padding = #'()
\set fingeringOrientations = #'(up left)
%
\override TextScript #'script-priority = #205
< fis'-1 dis'-4 b-3 fis-2 > 2. \arpeggio ^"II - - - - 
-" 
%
\override TextScript #'script-priority = #204
< fis'-1 dis'-4 b-3 fis-2 > 2. \arpeggio ^"II - - - -

} 
}   
}

so in a soonish release we can expect this to change?
or do we need a list of these hard-coded values which we can change on need?

should \voiceOneStyle override all possible attributes of a note or voice?

2008-10-21 Thread Eluze

i just saw that voiceXXXStyle only defines colors of NoteHead/Beam/Stem -
deliberatly?

these styles can be a great help when you are splitting notes into voices or
if you add dynamics and other articulations to the score - and you don't
remember to which voice you had added it...

IMO dots, accidentals, dynamics and maybe even markups should be colored,
too!

yeah - you can do this with nearly any pdf viewer just set #(ly:set-option
'point-and-click #t (I used this with acrobat reader or hai-hai-soft pdf
viewer under windows xp home edition)

but coloring every voice is even more convenient, at a glance you see
details without loosing the overview, and if needed you draw the mouse over
whatever you think should be investigated and click on it!

I understand the pedagogical ambitions, but OTOH if commands are defined IMO
they should cover as much as possible!

there is also the snippet  http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Snippet?id=443
http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Snippet?id=443  which enables automagical
coloring of all elements pertaining to a context (voice).

did you define a voice as \voiceThree?  this automagically shifts notes (and
others) horizontally to avoid collisions.
you can also use \shiftOn ( to \shiftOnnn) to force shifting 
this corresponds to \override NoteColumn #'horizontal-shift = #1 etc.

you have to make sure both voices use the same NoteHead style

here it looks like it is not enough to set NoteHeads to their "default", you
have to revert to the previously defined style - or you can override the
noteheads in the 1st voice to "default" as well!

textSpanner bound-details on two lines

2008-11-05 Thread Eluze

a few question about text spanner bound-details:

1. is it possible to keep the right-broken text inside the system
2. if there is only one note left, the spanner line stops on the first line,
and the right-(broken-) text is printed - probably a bug
3. can the continuation after the break be aligned with the first note?
4. the end (right) mark seems to be centered on the last note - can i push
it to the right?

i cannot find a reason to do this - what would you say about a volta spanner
that ends on the line before the break when there is still a note to play on
the next line…?
are there any workarounds?

i could have thought of it, but with all the other problems i got confused…
now i use a padding of #-1 which fits my needs!

again - thanks for your reply and i am really glad to see that lilypond can

the *pdf* to the index and big-page version

coda on a new line

2008-12-03 Thread -Eluze

since the snippet in the repository actually does not show a coda sign on the
coda line, i looked for an alternative to call a coda without having to
tweak the output excessively

the solution is to make 2 \scores: 

 - codaCallat the end of the first score you call a function to define a
text like "D.S. alla coda"; this is put into the right context, visibility …

 - codaInsert in the second you redefine the global settings exactly like in
the first score but omitting the Time_signature_engraver and you define with
which barnumber to continue

hope someone else can use this shortcut

if this is a coherent part of the log then obviously your lines have been
shuffled: the line starting with +lower = …+ does not end properly with a
brace!

also, i could not find a function called +set-ottavation+ but there is one
named +set-octavation+

hope this is a start to clean up your code!

controlling the alignment of FretBoards

2009-02-05 Thread -Eluze

is there a way to control - automatically - the vertical alignment of
FretBoards?
(i only found an option for horizontal alignment [align-dir])

thanks!

the idea is to setup a list of chords and names

looking at the example(s) (\sourcefileline 765 and following) in _notation
reference_ the  finger indications seem to be on the same line and so do the
top fret lines (in the pdf and html version).

when i compile these examples the results look different and unbalanced:

suggestion: add fingering position "above-string" in FretBoards

could this be considered?
it would not conflict with muted or open strings and imo it is at least as

i'm pretty sure i have seen this before, but i couldn't remember where

my idea was something like your first proposal, maybe with lowercase letters
x and o for mute and open!

this results in 
 c => *x32o1o*
 d => *xxo132*

btw i'm surprised how Lilypond plays d-major (xxo123)

another possibility is to play xxo231 which enables a quick change to Dm!

this was never supposed to work! 

see LM…


The property may be set to a list of one to three values. It controls
whether fingerings may be placed above (if up appears in the list), below
(if down appears), to the left (if left appears, or to the right (if right
appears). Conversely, if a location is not listed, no fingering is placed
there. LilyPond takes these constraints and works out the best placement for
the fingering of the notes of the following chords. Note that left and right
are mutually exclusive – fingering may be placed only on one side or the
other, not both.

did you also try *ragged-last* - to me this seems what you are looking for;
you can put it in a layout block inside a \score, so each score can be

you can force the spacing by adding \translate... after the  first

roundTr = \markup {

i don't think there is a way to put context properties in a variable.

but defining these properties in a \layout { … } block will do the thing:

\layout {

\Score

ok - here is what i found out in the meantime - moving stanzas/lyrics closer
to each, but also to the Staff with the notes:

\version "2.12.2"
melody = {\clef "G_8"   { c d e f} }
StanzaI   = \lyricmode { \set stanza = "1. " ha ha ha ha }
StanzaII  = \lyricmode { \set stanza = "2. " ho ho ho ho }
StanzaIII = \lyricmode { \set stanza = "3. " hu hu hu hu }
myScore=
  \context Score {
<<
  \context Staff="staff" {\new Voice = "melody" \melody}
  \context Lyrics="1" \lyricsto "melody" \StanzaI
  \context Lyrics="2" \lyricsto "melody" \StanzaII
  \context Lyrics="3" \lyricsto "melody" \StanzaIII
  >>
}
\score {
  \myScore
  \layout {
\context {\Lyrics \override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-0
. 0)}
\context {\Staff  \override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-0
. 0)}
}
  }
% this just shows how it looks without any overrides:
\score {\myScore}

if you omit the * \context {\Staff  \override … * only the stanzas will be
closer together!

my concern in the former post was if it was (or is) possible to only
\override *one* context to get the text vertically closer - obviously
*\context {\Score \override …* does not really help! 

maybe i search in a false direction?!

everything looks perfect, you have the \voiceOne and \voiceTwo in your
voices, but you also have to tell lilypond to merge these two voices on the
following levels:

\mergeDifferentlyDottedOn  
\mergeDifferentlyHeadedOn 

maybe it is also useful to prevent possible warnings in the log (after
securing they are harmless…) with

\override NoteColumn #'ignore-collision = ##t

Re: move lyrics closer

2009-04-09 Thread -Eluze

in
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond-big-page.html#Vertical%20spacing%20inside%20a%20system
you can read:
Normally staves are stacked vertically. To make staves maintain a distance,
their vertical
size is padded. This is done with the property minimum-Y-extent. When
applied to a Section
“VerticalAxisGroup” in Internals Reference, it controls the size of a
horizontal line, such as a
staff or a line of lyrics. minimum-Y-extent takes a pair of numbers, so if
you want to make it
smaller than its default #'(-4 . 4) then you could set
\override Staff.VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-3 . 3)
This sets the vertical size of the current staff to 3 staff spaces on either
side of the center staff
line. The value (-3 . 3) is interpreted as an interval, where the center
line is the 0, so the first
number is generally negative. The numbers need not match; for example, the
staff can be made
larger at the bottom by setting it to (-6 . 4).

when i read this i was rather confused:

-  *it controls the size of a horizontal line* - i thought the topic was
*vertical lines*!
-  *minimum-Y-extent takes a pair of numbers* - of course, but what does the
1st number stand for and whatfor is the 2nd?
- *The value (-3 . 3) is interpreted as an interval, where the center line
is the 0, so the first
number is generally negative.* - yes, but why!? or is that a general rule?!
- *the staff can be made larger at the bottom by setting it to (-6 . 4)* -
because usually it is negative: if i choose a smaller number (-6) it gets
larger!

sorry if this sounds dismal, but after reading this i really did not know
how to use the numbers!

this is typically used in a \layout section and you can \include a file with
such definitions; if it is located in another directory/folder you could
define this with

thanks, yes it does - in a way…

one part of the confusion raised with the not very specific mention of
something like "generally negative numbers" for the 1st number, whereas in
fact you *have* to use negative numbers (positive numbers are just broken
down to zero); the same happens to the 2nd number in the opposite way. from
this point of view it would be good enough just to use a pair of *positive*
numbers!

furthermore i never considered contexts to be graphical objects themselves!

hope i didn't offend somebody!

Re: Fingering multiple voices above the stave

hi 
which version are you using? when i compile your code wit version 2.12.2 i
do not get collisions.

if you feel stems and fingerings are to close you could add some extraspace
with

\override Fingering #'extra-offset = #'( -0.5 . 0) 

or choose the value you prefer

beautiful and powerful!

on which OS are you? 

I just compiled the whole score under windows/xp-sp3 with 512 MB RAM and I
can confirm it used up to 665MB main memory - and of course it took a long
time to finish: 46 minutes!
unfortunately i forgot to turn off "point'n click", so a file of 3.76MB
resulted (yours only had 600KB!)

further small differences are probably due to the fact that i run it with
2.12.2 and i got only 26 pages (28 in yours) - but it will take some time to
see all differences.

anyway: congrats for this beautiful work and thanks for making it available
for all interested people!

probably you have "Two simultaneous mark events", one in each staff and
since \mark is written in the \score context (or in the top staff) you have
this duplicity!

nice solution so far - but still some open points!

trying to take advantage of your mood i'll ask the following questions:

- it might be simpler to use skips (s) in the contextSpan voice
- how would you make more TextSpanners later on (the Text_spanner_engraver
has been removed from the voice)?
- how do you find out which contexts and engravers are involved?
- if you have 15 instruments (staffs) you need to add 15 "stringendo"s - is
that correct?

thanks

thanks for your answer (and sorry i did not answer before, but i was busy
installing a new computer...)

it is good to know you can find this information somewhere - but i was
thinking of a procedure listing all the actual or possible engravers or
contexts - maybe something similar to the function "list-all-grobs" which i
found in the snippets repository!

also you might have to play around with the numbers or make sure that the

why don't you reply in the thread you started - now it gets difficult to

there is also a more simple solution - but be aware that the result will
depend on how dense the measures following on the same line are drawn and/or
how many notes are spanned:
