Re: alternative volta 2 when empty

2024-09-29 Thread Walt North
Well after I sent this I find one way to do it though not ideal.  Perhaps there is something better but this will suffice though it still means basically splitting one measure out specially. Not much better then putting one measure under the volta.  Actually as I think about it putting

alternative volta 2 when empty

2024-09-29 Thread Walt North
What would be the correct way to code the following case? I have a repeated section.  The first alternative volta has a couple of measure before going back to the repeat.  The second volta should just carry on with the remainder of the piece.  I'd like to have an indication of the 2. volta jus

Well... one more little improvement  at least I don't need to split out the coding for the chords this way. \version "2.24.4" \layout {   \context {     \ChordNames     \override BarLine.bar-extent = #'(0 . 2)     \consists "Bar_engraver"   } } ch = \chordmode {   c1 c   \repeat volta 2 {

chordnames chordmode and markup

2024-09-29 Thread Walt North
Is it possible in someway to get some sort of markup behavior in chordmode?  They are cases where I want to add a remark for the rhythm guitar player for one reason or another for some chords. Simple minded example below.  For a staff note I can add text. But lilypond throws an error when I tr

Thank you for your reply. I want the text at the end of the 10 bar rest. Strangely the MM rests are not compressed in your code. Paul On 9/29/24 1:31 PM, William Rehwinkel wrote: Dear Paul, Is this by any chance the output you were expecting? -William \version "2.25.20" {   \compressMMRes

Fwd: Specific Lyric and CHordname font size

2024-09-29 Thread Walt North
My guitar players are a bit finicky on font size.  Is it possible to set a specific chordname and lyric font size?  I see that \markup can specify an abs font size.  I think I'm close with using font size #3.5 to get to a 16pt font for example. Is that the only say to specify font size in Chord
