Hello everyone, I am developing a alternative notation method. Piano_Tab Notation. (http://www.ambrosepianotabs.com/) Its like you are reading a piano roll editor with traditional rhytmic notation. This is a variation to the ambrose pianotab. I dont want to work with colors so i made a system with thick striped lines on the central c sharp and d sharp.
I dont like the rhytmic notation. Because this notation has one staff you can use only 2 voices. Otherwise it will look unclear. Well when writing this: <c~ e~ g>4 <c~ e~ as> <c e bf'~> <d~ f bf~> <d g bf>1 \bar "|." on a Piano_Tab staff you can read what's written but it is very unusual. In traditional notation you can write 2 different voices in the upper staff and in this case i have one voice for one hand. so i was thinking about tweaking the ties. Is it possible in lilypond to make a horizontal straight line between tied notes? This is what i made: %%%%BEGIN CODE \version "2.16.2" %Piano_Tab template \language "nederlands" \header { title = "Piano_Tab example" composer = "composer" } PtStaff =\relative c'' {<<{ %v1 <c~ e~ g>4 <c~ e~ as> <c e bes'~> <d~ f bes~> <d g bes>1 \bar "|." }\\{ %v2 }>>} \score { \new PianoStaff \with { staffLineLayoutFunction = #ly:pitch-semitones middleCPosition = #-6 clefGlyph = #"clefs.G" clefPosition = #(+ -6 7) }{ \override Staff.StaffSymbol #'line-positions = #'(21 19 16 14 12 9 7 4 2 0 -2.8 -3 -3.2 -4.8 -5 -5.2 -8 -10 -12 -15 -17 -20 -22 -24 -27 -29)\time 4/4 << \PtStaff >>} \layout { \context { \Staff \remove "Accidental_engraver" \remove "Key_engraver" \remove "Clef_engraver" } } } %%%%END CODE Cheers Philip Bergwerf -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Piano-Tab-Notation-Tie-customization-tp188407.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
