Ottava horizontal shift
Hello all,
This is another perplexing thing. I am trying to figure out how to
shift the ottava indications directly over their corresponding chords.
There does not seem to be an obvious solution. So here is the miminmal
example. The end result should have 8va loco. 8va. loco. read in a
single line.
regards
Shane
version "2.13.0"
\relative{
\once \override Staff.OttavaBracket #'dash-period = #0 \ottava #1
\barNumberCheck #190 \autoBeamOff
8 \ottava #0 8 ^"loco." \once \override
Staff.OttavaBracket #'dash-period = #0 \ottava #1 8
\ottava #0 8 ^"loco." }
I made a viable solution, but it does not resolve the issue of the 8va
not being centered over the note of origin.
\version "2.13.0"
\relative{ \override Staff.OttavaBracket #'dash-period = #1 \ottava
#1 | \barNumberCheck #190 \autoBeamOff \set
Score.proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment 1 25)
8 \ottava #0 \once \override TextScript #'extra-offset =
#'(-2.5 . -2.1) 8 ^"loco." \ottava #1 8
\ottava #0 8 ^"loco."
\ottava #1
}
p.s. misspelling shift is occasionally dangerous

Don't be hurted but I was not planning to edit the site. My plans with the 371 chorales are "a groß travail" and I don't want add more that I was fixing for myself. My plans are as follows: In a first wave I'll like to release a book in several parts, depending of the spacing issues, you know, this famous problem which users and devs are always fighting with and which is not an own Lilypond's issue. By the way I'm currently wondering whether the duplicate chorales in Breikopf's edition was a workaround about it. Possibly. Then it is an well-known problem. With this release you'll get all the separate files for the chorales (the duplicates will be pointed out) under a Free Art license (*). Then you could make anything you want with them and, from my point of view, it would be a lot easier for students, musicologists... to check and understand the Margaret's work and to form an opinion if you format my free work as you did for Margaret Gentree. By the way don't forget she has edited corrected chorales and also chorales with instrumental parts which doesn't exist in Breitkopf. In a second wave I'll like to re-use and reorganize the free sources to release a book untitled very pompously (but it might change, it's just a poetic idea): J.S.Bach Chorales. Studies of anamorphosis. (In fact, to juxtapose the same themes of chorales). As you can see there is a "groß travail" to do, but be sure if you have problems with my files I do everything one possibly can to help you and facilitate your formatting. It's the meaning of my solidarity. I hope you are not upset. (*) I realize I forgot the tagline in my template. I have to add it. Following a recent discussion on lilypond-fr where Valentin told about photocopies of sheet music, I think I'll add this in the tagline (without the capitals): Copyleft: cette oeuvre est libre, vous pouvez la copier, la PHOTOCOPIER, la diffuser et la modifier. Is it possible? Cheers. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

A license is (in part) a promise that the licensor will not sue the licensee so long as s/he adheres to the terms of the license. The licenses I offer, by law, can apply only to whatever portions of the work are my original contributions.

Error in note above- 2.12.2 is what works for me, not 2.12.3. D'oh.

Sure, since all of my .ly files fail to compile with 2.12.3 that's easy.
Here's a whole file that fails for me. There's no melody notated as of yet,

center text vertically between staves - indicating keyboard changes in organ music
Hello, How can I center text vercially between the staves of a PianoStaff? The two way's I can find in the learning manual (using lyrics and defining a Dynamics context, section A.2) seem a bit overdone for just a few marks. Is there another - more local - way? Shifting the text manually by changing the Y-offset is not really an option because the space between the staves is not fixed. The reason: I'm typesetting music for organ. For the keyboard part I use a PianoStaff. I want to indicate keyboard changes. E.g. Both hands on Grand Clavier Left hand on Grand Clavier, right hand on Positif Right hand on Positif, left hand on Grand Clavier Both hands on Positif Both hands on Echo etc. In the cases where both hands go to the same keyboard, I would like to put the indication vertically centered between the staves of the PianoStaff. Thanks in advance. best regards, Peter van Kranenburg ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Does anyone actually use them? I switched to Andrew's design for my local version of the manuals when these styles were discussed the first time. I never spent thoughts on this since then, and I don't feel irritated when I open the online references from another PC where my settings do not apply. No need to keep them from my POV. On a closer look, I also think that only the default CSS for the docs integrates well with the design of the main site.

If you originate a work - in this context compose some music - you have copyright control over any production of that work. Once that copyright has lapsed, a third party can reproduce the work in, for example, a book. They then get typograpghical copyright: which means, in effect, that you cannot reproduce the book, but you could reset the music into a work of your own. For music, there is a further complication. If someone arranges music, e.g. by adding chords, they gain a copyright on the arrangement, but not on the original music. For example, I am produciong a book of tradition British folk tunes from a music worksshop some years go. The tunes are traditional, and thus out of copyright, but the chords/arrangements are copyright, and I had to get permission from the family. -- Mark Austin -- For Whigs admit no force but argument -- ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Since 2.13 \tempo \markup { Text } works.
So simply replace \mark by \tempo and use the same markup.
Remove also your \once \override Score.RehearsalMark ...
since they will probably be no longer necessary.
