reason for using this idea, I'm simply suggesting an extension to the way
of expressing which pitches I want in a way which is independent of key
signature and in keeping with the way Lilypond does this (at least the way
I use it 🙂 ) It also means that all current scores continue to work
without modifications.

x27;t program Scheme or Python and don't know the internals of LilyPond
so I'm sure to have got some syntax errors in the above, but I hope it
explains better what I've been thinking.

Hi guys
Many thanks for taking such an interest in this. I have been thinking. I
can see that using the key signature to automatically donate sharps and
flats is going to be a lot of work and cause problems.
Todays thoughts are: when you specify \language, then part of what you are
doing is setti
his going: or a redirection
to a better environment. Is there a Scheme IDE? I’ve never seen
anything like a comment in Scheme code. I wonder is it a write-only
language, the way APL was.
Thanks

In the following example, I'd really like to see a fingering on the e which
has a bold red circle around it and properly centred. It would be good if
it could handle tweaks to the Y-offset too because the circle might collide
with other things.
Thanks

Example:
\ver
hings without doing much
typing. Making each one a function would be fine: something like \*curse ! *No
problem putting punctuation after each one, but I'm only a beginner with
*define-music-function* and this isn't a music function.
Thanks
Paul McKay
Hi Aaron.
Many thanks for this. I can now write functions like this:
mock = #(define-music-function
( punct)
( markup?)
#{ \addPunct \lyricmode { He mock -- eth at us } $punct #})
and
sopranoVerse = \lyricmode { \mock ; \mock ! }
Ace!

Aha! That will probably also explain why its staff is that of the following
note. When the voice I'm writing changes staff I'd like to tell the breathe
mark to stay in the bass staff which is the staff of the preceding note but
haven't figured out how to make it happen.

I uninstalled lilypond. Manually removed most mentions in the registry.
Downloaded it again and reinstalled. It still does nothing whenever
Frescobaldi or I try run it.
Any suggestions as to what to try next would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi
I am working on some Haydn piano music and want to distinguish between
urtext and my version music. (I plan to write out the variations I use when
I repeat.) A neat way to do it would be to change the colour of the staff
lines. I can't find a way that works. I can change the colour easily enough
hanks in advance
Paul McKay
example
\version "2.22.0"
\language "english"
firstTuplet = {
\once \override TupletBracket.bracket-visibility = ##t
\once \undo \omit TupletNumber
}
global = {
\key fs \minor
\numericTimeSignature
\time 2/4
t
so that there's a clear contrast with the Georgia used as the text font in
the documentation. Helvetica, Franklin Gothic and Source Sans Pro look good
but I realize they might not be available on some platforms.

Could someone tell me how to ask LilyPond to put music into columns? So
far, I've only been able to find out about how to ask LilyPond to put words
into columns.
Many thanks in advance

Thanks in advance

And if you don't really need the '-' in "4-5" you can reduce
c^\finger "2" ^\finger "5-4"
to
c^2^54
because LilyPond interprets any list of numbers as a fingering.

Hi
I'm planning to learn Chopin's Prelude Op28 No4. I looked on Imslp and
found that Mr Snortum has already turned it into .ly. That was going to be
my next move because I need to add my own fingering and dynamics. On the
IMSLP page Knute says that the .ly files are included. (I have spotted that
e
Output for BenQ.ily"
\bookOutputName "Grieg - (PC) Wedding day at Troldhaugen (Lyric piece
53)"
\score {
\music
\layout { #(layout-set-staff-size 16) }
}
}
%\"A4book"
\PCBook
I am pleasantly surprised by how seldom I need to insert \tag's in the
mu
color. I have tried the
following: the color of the dynamic marks is not altered. What do I need to
do?
Thanks
Paul McKay
\version "2.24.0"
nn = \relative { \repeat unfold 16 e'4 }
dyn = { 4 2\<
\override DynamicLineSpanner.color = #red
\override Dyna
Awesome, thanks!

ould overwrite

r4 r8 -1-3( 16-2-4 -1-5-2-4-3-5) }
Fingerings still avoid the slurs.
What am I missing?
Thanks
Paul McKay
% fingering should overwrite
slurs
\override Staff.Fingering.whiteout = ##t
r4 r8 -1-3( 16-2-4 -1-5-2-4-3-5)
}
but the fingerings still avoid the slurs. I want them to appear just where
they would if the Slurs weren't there at all.
What am I missing?
Thanks
