Re: Inspirational Headwords for Chords section of manual

Hi Carl, I'm working on the Keyboards section. I was considering submitting part of the Schumann Romance in F Sharp (Op. 28, No 2.) because it looks gorgeous (three staves and extensive cross-staff beaming), but I'd like to see anything you have. Thanks for your help! Andrew On Tue, Jun 24, 2008

Is there anyway to control individual filenames? I'm losing data

For example, from O Magnum Mysterium I get 5 midi files, one for the choral rendition, then one for each voice. They are named: O_Magnum_Mysterium.midi soprano O_Magnum_Mysterium-1.midi alto O_Magnum_Mysterium-2.midi tenor O_Magnum_Mysterium-3.midi bass Then the second book, O_Magnum_Myster

Re: Inspirational Headwords for Chords section of manual

Ok I understand now. It just never occurred to me that "inspirational headword" could refer to a passage of music. Sounds like something from a hymnal. It looks like the fretted strings and keyboard sections still need these things and I have a number of original works for piano and for clas

O Magnum Mysterium is done

If anyone would like a copy of the .ly pond for O Magnum Mysterium drop me a note and I'll email you a copy. But--if you get a copy and print it please check for problems and if you see anything that could be improved, let me know:) It prints a choral score in one pdf, another pdf with the fo

Re: Inspirational Headwords for Chords section of manual

Look at NR 1. Every section contains two to four lines of music notation, demonstrating features covered in that section. We're not looking for complete pieces. We're not looking for new compositions -- although if you have one, and don't mind releasing a small portion of it under a copyleft lic

Re: wordwrap inside markuplines?

Hi Reinhold, Here you really need to use \column-lines... I was trying that... but it doesn't seem to work either. =\ So, basically, each \markuplines should typically be followed by \column-lines, and the contents of \column-lines should either be individual lines or lists of lines gener

Re: Inspirational Headwords for Chords section of manual

I hope I'm not being ignorant, but could you explain what an "inspirational headword" is? I might be able to help but I don't know what this is (!). Jonathan Trevor Bača wrote: On Fri, Jun 13, 2008 at 12:13 PM, Valentin Villenave <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > wrote: 20

Re:StaffGroup bar line problem in polymetric notation

Hi Carl, even if I didn't try your example, I understand why it will work! Thanks a lot for your help. I have another question, though: should I make an example to add to the LSR? Because both the groupstaff and pianostaff issues are somehow part of a more real-life example of a polymetric score. R
