Re: Global Variable vs Edition Engraver

Hi Craig, Kieren, I actually use kind of a global variable for the global time line. So all repeat signs, time-signatures *and* key-signatures there. Before I implemented the EE I started with a template-engine where the tamplates take care of creating the simultaneous music ( << \getMusic meta \g

I cannot think of any simple solution. So here it goes : \version "2.18" \relative c' { %% Stem defs to be set manually; \once\override Stem.Y-offset = #-4 \once\override Stem.length = #4.5 \once\stemDown 2 %% defaulft stem length: \once\stemDown c \once\override Stem.Y-offset

Hello Ben, Yes, I can use the MIDI player slide bar alright, but typing a number would be easier and more accurate if one often does that. JM > Le 9 juil. 2018 à 13:54, Ben a écrit : > > On 7/8/2018 3:52 PM, Urs Liska wrote: >> >> Am 8. Juli 2018 20:15:09 MESZ schrieb Menu Jacques >>

Extending a blank staff.

Greetings All, I suspect that the answer to this is extremely obvious, but it currently eludes me. I would like to produce a blank staff that fills the page horizontally. Here is my code for an eleven-line staff. \version "2.19.80" \paper { #(set-paper-size "letter") tagline = ##f } \score {

Re: Global Variable vs Edition Engraver

Hi gents, Thanks for your advice. Jan-Peter, I do something similar with a global "timeline" or structure with barlines, key signatures, repeats, rehearsal marks. I was just wondering if I was behind the times and not keeping up with the EE. I'm just trying to make my code as concise as possible.

Re: Global Variable vs Edition Engraver

Hello, My choice to move barlines to the EE is based on the fact that I have many large-scale works — operas, musicals, and the like — made up of small movements which may join together in different ways. For example, "Waiting", the 11-o'clock number from "Fairy Tale Ending", continues attacca
