i don't know of anyone offering hardcopy of the manual, but most print/copy

chords in full score

2006-02-07 Thread plutek

greetings!

i am copying an orchestral score in which there are three flute parts, 
always in rhythmic unison. we would like them to appear in the full 
score as chords, but still be easily extracted for parts. is there a way 
(other than a lot of cut'n'paste) to do this?


my basic strategy for the piece is separate files for each instrument, 
combined with includes in the score. i'm using lilypond v2.7.32.


thanks!

volta warning

2007-01-20 Thread plutek

greetings!

when using voltaSpannerDuration to restrict the length of volta  
brackets, i get a warning "cannot end volta spanner", when my  
restriction forces ending the bracket before the end of a line. the  
output seems fine; just wondering if there's anything that should be  
done about this (either by users or developers).


i'm on version 2.11.12

chord-name font size issues

2007-01-20 Thread plutek

greetings!

when using \override ChordName #'font-size to make chord-names smaller,  
the superscripts stay the same distance above the main text baseline.  
i.e. the vertical distance between chord letter and chord type and  
extensions, relative to font size, gets larger.


is this the intended behaviour? i would think that vertical distance  
should be scaled with the font size.


as a workaround, is there a way of globally adjusting the chord-name  
superscript height? i don't see anything in the docs.


i'm on 2.11.12

thanks!

change metronome size

2003-09-05 Thread plutek
does anyone know how to change size of a metronome marking?

this changes everything, except the note stem (which stays as it was both
in position and size):

\notes { \property Score.MetronomeMark \set #'font-magnification = #0.5
\tempo 4 = 120 c''1 }

this doesn't seem to be addressed in regression or tips, and the only
thing i could find in the list archive was from years ago, before \tempo
existed.

re: change markup note size

2003-09-05 Thread plutek
followup to my own post:

while the notation manual states: "\note log dots dir" with a note
explaining that the third value refers to the stem direction (+1 is up and
-1 is down), it does not tell us what i have just discovered: the third
value ALSO controls stem length and position.

\markup { \magnify #3  \note #2 #0 #3 } yields a 3x-sized note with
correct position/length of the stem.

\markup { \magnify #0.5 \note #2 #0 #0.5 } yields a 0.5x-sized note with
correct position/length of the stem.

a negative third value flips the note upside down, and still corrects the
stem length.

unfortunately, the stem thickness is unaffected, so the range of values
for which this method will create a useful result is limited.

cross-barline AND cross-linebreak beams

2003-09-17 Thread plutek
regression | beaming.ly states "Beams may cross bar lines. In that case,
line breaks are forbidden."

i am attempting to typeset a piece with many cross-barline beamings. in
some places, there is insufficient opportunity, while avoiding
beamed-across barlines, to find line breaks. i get a warning: "Could not
find line breaking that satisfies constraints" and the lines run off the
page, because there are too many consecutive measures with cross-barline
beaming.

i would like to be able to make the cross-barline beams hang incomplete on
either side of line breaks. (in fact, this piece will be pretty much
impossible to typeset without being able to do that.)

is there any way to work around this limitation?

strange thread behaviour in 1.9.8??

2003-09-20 Thread plutek
in "tips and tricks" : harmonic.ly 

if the initial c'4 is removed, then the two notes within the <<>> behave
as polyphony rather than as a chord. this is consistent with the new
polyphony and chord syntax, but why does the initial c'4 force chord
behaviour?

if, after removing the initial c'4, i then place the multi-threaded chord
in a \context Voice {} block, then it DOES behave as a chord again.

perhaps, to have a consistent syntax, multithreaded chords should always
be placed in a Voice context now?

with this score in EMACS:

\score {
\notes { f16 g a b c[ < d f >]
}
\paper {}
}

EMACS claims that the closing parenthesis of the \notes block is
mismatched, and if i put in a second line of notes it wants to indent to
the < of the first line.

if i move the ] inside the chord like: < d f] > then EMACS thinks
everything is fine. of course, then the beam is unterminated for lilypond.

do other folks observe the same behaviour?

individual tie directions in chords

2003-09-26 Thread plutek
in the following:

\score {
\notes \relative c' {
~
}
\paper { raggedright = ##t}
}

it seems clear to me that the tie between g's should go up, to avoid
colliding with the tie between f's. unfortunately, that does not follow
the rule of curving away from staff center.

i have not been able to find a way of controlling tie DIRECTION for
individual notes in a chord. i suppose the method of placing the tie
engraver at thread level (shown in regression/tie-chord-partial.ly) would
work, but in the context of a succession of chords, where only one needs
this treatment, isn't it difficult to switch between that and the regular
use of the tie engraver?

is there no simpler way to do this?

ok, i've come up with this so far:

\score {
\notes \relative c' {
\context Staff { <<
\context Voice { << \tieUp g'~  e'~ >> << g,  e' >> }
\new Voice  {
\tieDown \property Voice.Stem \override #'transparent = ##t
\property Voice.NoteHead \override #'extra-offset =  #'(-2.35 . 0)
\property Voice.Tie \override #'extra-offset = #'(-2.35 . 0)
f,~f  }
>>  }
}

\paper {  raggedright = ##t
  }
}

it works, but is rather full of manual fudging for my taste. there must be
a more elegant way.

thanks in advance for any suggestions!

force time signature

2003-10-06 Thread plutek
laura conrad asked a question similar to this a while ago, and never got
an answer i'll try again:

i am attempting to force the current key signature to display after a
\break, but without also printing a cautionary time-sig at the end of the
previous system. if i simply insert another \time command with the same
time-sig, i get the cautionary on the line before.

there doesn't seem to be anything analogous to forceClef for time signatures.

anyone have a solution (besides manually constructing it in markup)?

house chord style - global?

2008-10-02 Thread plutek-infinity
greetings!

i have implemented some changes to chord markup symbols, using the method shown 
at 
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.11/Documentation/user/lilypond-big-page#Customizing-chord-names
  --- i've got this in a house-style.ly, which i \include at the beginning of 
each lilypond file:

% Exception music is chords with markups
chExceptionMusic = {
  1-\markup { \super "maj7" }
  1-\markup { \super "maj9" }
  1-\markup { \super "maj11" }
  1-\markup { \super "7alt" }
  1-\markup { \super "6(add9)" }
}
% Convert music to list and prepend to existing exceptions.
chExceptions = #( append
  ( sequential-music-to-chord-exceptions chExceptionMusic #t)
  ignatzekExceptions)

i also wish to have chord symbols only notated when they change. normally, to 
implement that and the chord symbol modifications, i must put this in any 
\chords blocks which occur in any ly files:

\set chordNameExceptions = #chExceptions 
\set chordChanges = ##t

that all works fine, but i'm wondering if there is some way of setting 
chordNameExceptions and chordChanges globally, in the house-style.ly file, 
instead of having to \set it in every \chords block of every score.

cheers!

chord name position

2008-10-16 Thread plutek-infinity
greetings!

i don't understand why the chord names end up below the staff when i do this:

-

\version "2.11.61"

changes = \chords {
  c1 c1
}

slashes = {
  \override NoteHead #'style = #'slash
  b'1 b'1
}

\score {
  \new Staff <<
\changes
\slashes
  >>
}

---

would someone be kind enough to explain?
thanks very much!

doits on a chord?

2008-10-17 Thread plutek-infinity
greetings!

i'm trying to figure out how to apply doits to a chord, and neither of these 
produces anything:

\score { 1-\bendAfter #+5 }
\score { 1 }

this has the desired effect, but seems messy and gives clashing note column 
errors:

\score { \new Staff { <> } }

does anyone have a solution for this?
thanks!

global time signature style in 2.11.62

2008-10-24 Thread plutek-infinity
greetings!

in 2.11.61, this changed time signature style to numeric:

  \layout {
\context {
  \Staff
  \override TimeSignature #'style = #'()
}
  }

in 2.11.62, it no longer does so, but the definition for numericTimeSignature 
in property-init.ly is:

  \override Staff.TimeSignature #'style = #'()

i don't understand why it's not working. would someone be kind enough to help 
me understand?

thanks in advance!

sorry my mistake. i had this later in my layout block:

\context {
 \RemoveEmptyStaffContext
 }

that command, of course, defines a staff context, so i guess the two staff 
contexts were conflicting.

hmmm makes sense. however, both are active if i do this:

\layout {
  \context {
\RemoveEmptyStaffContext
  } 
  \context {
\Staff \override TimeSignature #'style = #'()
  }
}

if, however, i remove the first \context block, and put the 
RemoveEmptyStaffContext definition in the single remaining Staff block, like 
this:

\layout {
\context {
  \Staff \override TimeSignature #'style = #'()
  \remove "Axis_group_engraver"
  \consists "Hara_kiri_engraver"
  \override Beam #'auto-knee-gap = #'()
  \override VerticalAxisGroup #'remove-empty = ##t
} 
}

then the output looks ok, but i get these warnings in a large, multi-staff 
system:

warning: Axis_group_engraver: vertical group already has a parent
warning: are there two Axis_group_engravers?
warning: removing this vertical group

i'm out of my depth here!

cheers!
