lilypond feature request (was: Some doubts)
Lilyponders, The brackets that Daniel Berjón Díez has asked about are very handy in organ music when indicating a change in registration or when changing from one manual (keyboard) to another. I have scores where you can see these used up to ten times per page. In truth, not all publishers use the same symbols for this task, but the thin-line brackets are reasonably common and quite clear as to their meaning, and something I'd like to add to my scores. I did have a look at the molecule-hacking code. Ouch! Thanks, -jvh == James Van Horn Seattle, WA USA On Wed, 12 Nov 2003 11:32:48 +0100, Mats Bengtsson wrote: > > Daniel Berjón Díez wrote: > > 1.

Re: Very long hyphens in lyrics
While searching the archive I came across this message from a month ago. I'm having the same issue but it is even worse when the hyphen extends (or should extend) over an entire line. Currently, lilypond doesn't print anything for that line and compresses the vertical spacing as though there were no lyrics at all, which is a bit confusing since it's the middle of a word. How does one file a feature request for something like this? As you proposed, a property on LyricHyphen would be perfect--set it once and have it behave that way through the whole score. When I tried using a lyric extender instead of a hyphen, it still drops out for the line when there are no other new lyrics on that line, then reappears on the next line to lead up to the next new word. For example: \score { << \new Staff \notes \relative c' { c4 c c c | c c c c | c c c c | c c c c | c c c c | c c c c | c c c c | c c c c | c c c c | c c c c c c c c | c c c c | c c c c | c c c c | c c c c c c c c | c c c c | c c c c | c c c c | c c c c } \new Lyrics \lyrics { Fu4*79 __ bar!4 } \new Lyrics \lyrics { Fu4*79 -- bar!4 } >> \paper {} } I'm guessing that even if we had a LyricHyphen property that used repeated dashes it would still skip the middle line, seeing as both the hyphen and the lyric extender skip it now. Is there any way to prevent this? Is this a bug or is it intentional? Thanks, Russ > One common way to typeset this is to use an extender line, > as you have done after cau-sa.

Re: staff spacing
Thank your for your suggestions! The font trick worked like a charm. I'm still struggling with the staff spacing for pages with no lyrics. Do you mean that the music staff will normally disappear, or just the space below it where the lyrics normally go? I'm not seeing the staff disappear, just the space below. For the lyrics in those sections I use something like \skip1.*15 and the music staff has something like R1.*15. I tried removing the Hara_kiri_engraver per your instructions below, but I got a rather strange result. All the lyrics from all the 9 vocal lines collected at the top of the page (overwriting each other). Perhaps I've done something strange? Here's how I'm structuring things: \score { \simultaneous { \new StaffGroup \simultaneous { \property Score.BarNumber \override #'padding = #2 \iSopranoRipienoStaff \new GrandStaff \simultaneous { \iFlautoTraversoIStaff \iFlautoTraversoIIStaff } \new GrandStaff \simultaneous { \iOboeIStaff \iOboeIIStaff } \new GrandStaff \simultaneous { \iViolinoIStaff \iViolinoIIStaff } \iViolaStaff \new InnerChoirStaff \simultaneous { \iSopranoStaff \iAltoStaff \iTenorStaff \iBassStaff } \new GrandStaff \simultaneous { \property GrandStaff.instrument = "Organo e Continuo." \iOrganoEContinuoTrebleStaff \iOrganoEContinuoBassStaff } } ... similar for the second orchestra and choir In different files I define the various staffs. iSopranoStaff is like this: SopranoStaff = \simultaneous { \context Staff = iSopranoNotes \notes { \vocalStaffSetup \property Staff.instrument = "Soprano." \time 12/8 \clef soprano \relative c' { \key e \minor ... a bunch of notes } } \context Lyrics = iSopranoLyrics \lyrics { \lyricsSetup ... a bunch of lyrics } } where vocalStaffSetup is just a set of directives that are common to all my vocal parts (turning off autobeaming, setting staff size, etc.).

Re: staff spacing
At the moment, it seems that LilyPond thinks of the _ or "" as a graphical object with a rhythmic position, and that's exactly the kind of objects that prevents the stave from being removed. We send it as a feature request to bug-lilypond to make LilyPond smarter in this respect. /Mats Arvid Grøtting wrote: Mats Bengtsson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: When you have a score line with empty lyrics, it is removed completely meaning that it doesn't occupy any space.

Re: staff spacing
When you have a score line with empty lyrics, it is removed completely meaning that it doesn't occupy any space. If you want empty lyrics lines to still occupy some space, try \score{ ... \paper{ ... \translator{ \LyricsVoiceContext \remove "Hara_kiri_engraver" } } } Also, see the answer to the related question at http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2003-11/msg00087.html (popular question today). /Mats Russ Ross wrote: Hi, I'm setting the full score for the first movement of Bach's St. Matthew Passion which has about 27 staves per page. I can squeeze them all onto a single A4 page by scaling down to the 11 pt size, moving a few dynamic marks, and increasing the textsize parameter. When the vocal parts are resting, the system crunches down to a much smaller size (no lyrics) which I'd like to avoid. What I'd really like is to fix the spacing of the staves on all pages to be the same, ideally computed based on the largest spacing needed on any page. Is it possible to do something like this? I think it makes the music much easier to follow from page to page. I've tried setting the spacing of an individual manually using: \property Staff.minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-3 . 5) or something similar, but this seems to expand the staff too much on the pages with lyrics (where space is tight) and not enough on the pages without lyrics. Is there another setting that controls the inter-staff spacing when lyrics are involved? If I can just set the spacing myself it should work with some trial and error. If I could get lilypond to compute the spacing and keep it the same for all pages that would be even better. Any suggestions?

Re: smaller size in lilypond than paper13.ly
First of all, have you tried to decrease the interscoreline variable (http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.0/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/Page-layout.html) and increase the textheight variable (http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.0/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/Invoking-lilypond.html)? If you decrease the size of the music even more, I suspect that it will be more or less impossible to see what's written. The best solution is probably to use a larger paper size. If you absolutely want to squeeze it in to an A4 paper, you could always typeset it for a larger paper size and then scale it down to A4 (Acrobat has an option to schrink each page to fit the paper size). /Mats Jürgen Merkle wrote: Hello, I have a problem with my lilypond.
