Re: Slurs across system breaks are not good

Philip, Here is an example of the first issue---sloping, and even in the wrong direction---(it seems to occur only when a rest is involved): \version "2.14.1" \paper{ ragged-right=##t } \relative c' { \clef bass d4 d d( r \break d') } The other issues all appear to be reported alre

Slurs across system breaks are not good

2011-06-24 Thread MusFelix
I see that there are some older messages complaining about the way Lilypond handles slurs going across system breaks. I thought I would add my voice, since this is a very common thing occurrence, and the fact that it is handled so poorly while other less common issues are handled well is rather s

Bug? Fingerings collide with slurs when used in <>

2011-04-19 Thread MusFelix
Fingerings stop avoiding slurs when they are placed within a chord <...> or even a single note <>. Is this not a bad default behavior? For example: \version "2.13.51" \include "english.ly" \relative c' { \clef bass c8-1( d-2 e-3) b-1( f-2) g-3( a-1 b-2) ( ) ( ) ( ) } -- View this

Bad slur default (when rests are within)

2011-04-18 Thread MusFelix
When a slur connects two notes that have a rest in between, the slur is placed up, even if it would otherwise be down. Needless to say, this looks bad, and one has to manually adjust it every time it occurs. Thus: \version "2.13.51" \include "english.ly" \relative c { \clef bass c8( r c

Slur positions limit?

2011-04-16 Thread MusFelix
While adjusting slurs, I have come across cases where the adjustment doesn't take. I have played around with all of the slur details settings, but nothing has worked. See this example, where the slur should be much higher, exaggerated for testing, but is stuck lower: \version "2.13.51" \include

Thanks. I'll try a hidden grace in the other voice to see what that produces. Phil, good thing you asked me for a separate working example. When I wrote one up, I didn't get any errors (see my snippet below), just some collisions. As it turns out, I had this line in the original: \override Sc

Slur offset over articulations: Error or Intentional?

2011-02-25 Thread MusFelix
Whenever there is an articulation on the first or last note of a slur the other end is offset by the same amount, whether it has an articulation or not. Is this intentional in the algorithm or a problem? And is there a way to fix it generally (obviously a slur can be adjusted manually one at a t

How do I set the font used in the measure numbers at the beginning of each system to use the number fonts used in fingerings? Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Fingering-font-in-Measure-numbers-tp31000348p31000348.html Sent from the Gnu - Lilypond - User mailing lis
