formatting two-note tremolo's
hi,
this is the first time i'm trying to make a score in lilypond, so
excuse me if i'm asking stupid questions of if i'm overlooking
something obvious..
when i make a two note tremolo, with the flowing code:
\repeat "tremolo" 16 {32 32 }
it looks like in the attached tremolo.pdf.
now i would like to change the slope of the tremolo sign, and also to
move the symbol down (so it is in between the notes) and make a bit
more space between the notes and the sign.
after browsing a bit through the documentation, i thought something like
\once \override StemTremolo #'slope = #0.3
\once \override StemTremoloe #'X-extent = #5
\once \override StemTremoloe #'Y-extent = #5
\repeat "tremolo" 16 {32 32 }
should change the appeareance of the tremolo, but that doesn't seem
to make any difference..
is there a way to change the properties i want? and what am i doing
wrong then in the above code?
the result i want to achieve is something like in the attached wanted.png
many thanks in advance,
Kristof

manually tweaking accidental X-position
hi, I was wondering if it is possible to manually tweak the X-position of an accidental. In the list archives i found someone reporting that \override Accidental #'Y-offset works, but \override Accidental #'X-offset doesn't. Is there another way to accomplish this? thanks & greetings, Kristof -- i...@kristoflauwers.domainepublic.net http://myspac.com/xofxof http://kristoflauwers.domainepublic.net -- ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
problem with hidden notes
hi list,
i hope you can help me again with a little problem i have..
context:
i'm trying to do some complex notation for a piece in contemporary
idiom, and as the \laissezVibrer didn't want to behave like i wanted,
i tried to simulate one more suitable to my needs, so that i can let
it depart only from only the highest and lowest notes of a chord (the
normal behaviour with chords seems to be to let it either come from
every note or from none?) , and so that i can control the length and
tilt the slur a bit up or down.
the strategy i tried for now, is by using phrasing slurs with hidden
endnotes, with doubleSlurs set to true..
(maybe this is not the best approach and some one can give me some
hints for a better way to do this?)
anyway, below is the way i'm trying to do it (and the result in attachement)
it may seem a bit awkward as a music example, but that's because i
stripped out a lot of things that weren't relevant to show my problem
so, the actual problem i have now:
after hiding the noteheads and stem of my hidden chord (the last one
on the staff), there still remains a dashed vertical line..
can anyone tell me why it is there and how i can get rid of it?
thanks a lot!
Kristof

part combiner
Hi lilyponders. I am currently orchestrating a piece of music using lilypond for the notation. I am using the part-combiner to combine the wind instruments, but I find it to be unusable for the folowing reasons: - There are to many changes from solo, a due, etc. In one bar I have even 8 changes! When there is just one rest in the combiner it will print solo above it. Obviously there should be at most one change each bar, and in the ideal case it should remain the same for a melody. That would make it easier for a conductor or person reading the score to follow. - It appears that parts will not be combined when a crescendo or diminuendo is active. It should be possible to have an a due part with dynamics. - Rest can be merged more often. When there is the same amount of silence for both instruments, there need only to be one rest, since there can be no ambiguity about who is not playing. - It would be nice if the part-combiner could handle voice-crossings elegantly, for example using a little line to show the direction of the voice. I would like to rewrite the part-combiner, but I have a few questions about doing so: - How can I get the time signature from the voice? - How can I analyse a moment (for example to see if it falls withing a bar)? - Would it be possible to just change the scheme code (since I like more writing scheme than C++ ;-) ? - Will the C++ part of the part-combiner handle dynamics and slurs gratiously for a due parts or chords? Thank you for your time reading this large sandwich of questions :) Kristof Bastiaensen ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

That could mean less work to put in the dynamics for each instrument (if no separate parts are made). That also makes me wonder if lilypond merges dynamics even when the voices aren't merged. That would be useful, since instruments in the orchestra usually play the same dynamic. (For example they could be merged when the instruments have the same dynamic for a longer time). >> I would like to rewrite the part-combiner, but I have a few questions >> about doing so: >> >> - How can I get the time signature from the voice? > > You have to rewrite the Recording_group_engraver to record properties > like timeSignatureFraction and measureDuration Ok, I'll look into it. > >> - How can I analyse a moment (for example to see if it falls withing a >> bar)? >> - Would it be possible to just change the scheme code (since I like more >> writing scheme than C++ ;-) ? > > Except for the above it should all be doable in Scheme.

As far as I can see the music events are recorded in try_music. Which method do I have to add to record property changes? Sorry, I am not so familier with lilypond internals. Perhaps could you give me some source files that I should read to get more info? I read part-combiner, and I think it works as follows: make-part-combine-music puts the events in noticed, and from there it gets passed to the function determine-split-list. That function returns a list of moments and descriptions. So I just need to change the determine-split-list function. Is that right?

Just one question, is there a method which get called before the first events are handled? That would be useful to get the initial values for the properties.

Easier would be to add silent notes:

\break frocing indents?
hi, i'm writing a time-proportional score, and for that (next to using lots of tweaks), i often need to control where the line breaks come manually with \break. now (after having some lines where i did'nt need to control the breaking), i noticed that after each forced line break, the staff on the next rule is indented. is there a way to override this behaviour? thanks!

Re: clarinet tab?
hi,
for me it's working.
in the line below, a closing bracket is missing in the end. maybe
that's the problem?
