partcombine & killCues

2020-01-23 Thread Michael Seifert
Hey there folks, I’m trying to prepare a score and parts for a concerto using Lilypond, and I can’t figure out how to make partcombine and killCues work nicely together. My goal is to have individual parts for the orchestra, containing cues for the solo instrument; and also to

Lilypond PDF links in TexShop (Mac OS)

2020-08-02 Thread Michael Seifert
This is more of a LilyPond-adjacent question, but I figured I’d see if anyone had any ideas: I’m currently using TeXShop 4.44 under Mac OS Catalina to edit & compile my LilyPond code. The resulting PDFs contain links of the form “textedit:///Users/...” which direct back to the

Articulation mark & slur placement

2020-12-19 Thread Michael Seifert
The following code \relative c' { d4-^( e4 f4-.) r4 } produces a slur with all articulation marks “inside” the slur. Typically, however, articulation marks are supposed to go “outside” the first note of a slur: “Usually, only tenuto lines and staccato marks may go inside of the first and the

Hey there John, I believe that the LilyPond engine is now included automatically in the TexShop distribution, so the Italian university link is moot (it’s where you used to have to download the engine from.) Here’s what I did, quoted from a discussion on this list this past sum

Hey there Ken, In Lilypond, hairpins always span from the point where you start them to the next dynamic indication. If you want to end a hairpin without another printed dynamic indication, you use the \! command at the endpoint: c4\< d4 e4 f4 g1\> c1\! As far as how to play i

Trombone player here. You and I play instruments that are in concert pitch. This means that when you & I look at a C printed on the page, and move our fingers/slide/lips to play it, a C comes out of our horns. A part for a “Trumpet in B-flat” is written differently.

Tempo markings & partcombine

Tweaking completion ties

Hello everyone, Is there an easy way to tweak the “completion ties” that are created at the start of a new system when a line break occurs during a tie? I haven’t been able to figure out what the correct “handle” is for these objects. In the example below, I can modify the pro

Thanks, that’s good to know. In the end, while playing with \alterBroken I discovered that I could increase Tie.details.vertical-distance-penalty-factor to get the effect I wanted. It didn’t work in the \alterBroken command (perhaps because it’s accessed before line breaking?) but it
