hello list, in the last few days i've been working notating a series of short fragments including graphical elements like lines, boxes and brackets. i created them using postscript code embedded in markups. it took a long time, but finally everything looked great in the pdfs.
after finishing the work i realized, to my dismay, that nothing of this is
rendered to the svg files that i need to give to the publisher. now i know
that i should have used \path.
the problem is that no matter what i do, i can't make \path "float" over
the staff. even if i can force it to print on the staff, using \override
TextScript #'staff-padding = #'() and \override TextScript #'extra-offset,
the drawing still takes some extra space, and the staff gets displaced.
here's a basic example. how can i get \path behave like \postscript, and
print *on* the staff, without extraneous displacements?
dibujoPS = #"
newpath
-1.5 3 moveto
5 0 rlineto
0 -10 rlineto
-5 0 rlineto
closepath
0.25 setlinewidth
stroke"
dibujoPath =
#'(( rmoveto -1.5 0 )
( rlineto 5 0 )
( rlineto 0 -10 )
( rlineto -5 0 )
( closepath )
)
\relative c'' {
b1^\markup{
\postscript #dibujoPS
}
b1^\markup{
\path #0.25 #dibujoPath
}
}
i would greatly appreciate any help on this. in the notation manual i could
find only one example of \path, and it's not related to a staff or any
other element.
best,
lj
