Isn't this the same bug as

In the attached example you can see the fingerings in the first two 
chords are set to left and right respectively, and the arpeggios are 
placed way too far to the left in both cases.  The arpeggio belonging 
to the second chord is placed right on top of the previous chord.  
When fingering-orientation is set to up and down, the arpeggio is 
placed correctly (see 3rd chord).

Re: Windows Vista

2008-10-16 Thread Mats Bengtsson
In addition to the previous answer, note that, as usual with Vista, you 
will need an account with administrator privileges to install LilyPond.
Please send future usage questions to the lilypond-user mailing list and 
reserve the bug-lilypond list for bug reports.

Hello Team,

I have had to replace my laptop and the new one has Windows Vista instead of 
XP.  I would be grateful if you could comfirm whether or not Lilypond is 
compatible with Vista as I do not see it listed on your website.


Thank you.

It looks the same, though it only mentions the problem with respect to 
fingering orientations set to right The problem persists with both 
right and left orientations.

 We used to include makam.ly in pitches.itely.  I don't know what
 happened to it.

There is a snippet called makam-example.ly which is
tagged with the snippets for World music and \includes
makam.ly.  It shows 1/9th tone microtones.  Is this
what you meant?


Yeah, that's what I was talking about.  I guess we took it out of
Pitches when World was created, but we probably should have kept
it in the Pitches Snippet List, and included in the @snippets of
Accidentals.


I've added makam-example.ly to the @snippets of Accidentals.

It's already tagged for Pitches.

Re: vertical spacing issues v2.11.59

2008-10-16 Thread Valentin Villenave
2008/10/15 Didi Kanjahn [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
 The vertical spacing of Lilypond works amzingly well when you have only one 
 set
 of scores and use the Title/Subtitle headers.

Greetings,

 However, when I moved to using markup text instead of using the header, 
 Lilypond
 often does not succeed to use the vertical space vcery well. Even if the 
 markup
 text is less high than the headers were, it does not fit all the score onto 
 the
 same piece of paper any more and often leaves large spaces between the text 
 and
 the next staff. Using between-system-padding and between-system-space helps
 some, but does not distribute space evenly and proportionally with the values
 entered there. A between-system-padding = 1.7 may still leave 4cm of space 
 below
 the staves and may not give a decent space between staves and lyrics, a 
 setting
 of 1.8 brings one staff on the next page. Between-system-space increases the
 space where there is only one line of lyrics (chorus), but not where there are
 multiple, thus not distributing it evenly and again, small increases may 
 cause a
 staff to jump to the next page.

Personnally, I'd recommend *not* to set between-system-space and
between-system-padding.

 When using markup text for titles etc to combine several pieces of music in 
 one
 file the last one gets split up onto two pages almost regardless of its size. 
 If
 in this situation there was still 5cm of room on the bottom of the page (not 
 the
 last page) and I add a bottom-margin of 1.5cm Lilypond decides that there is 
 not
 enough room on the page anymore and moves all the staves onto the next page.

This is because LilyPond does not have enough place to:
 -print a new system and the lyrics
 -*and* respect your bottom-margin
 -*and* respect your between-system-space.

Setting bottom-margin can dramatically influence the number of pages:
in the example below, a value of 4\cm prints three pages instead of
two.

%%

\paper {
  bottom-margin = 5\cm % try with 4\cm
  annotate-spacing = ##t
}

notes = { f1 }
\addlyrics { blah }
\addlyrics { blah }


music = 
\new Staff \notes
\new Staff \notes
\new Staff \notes
\new Staff \notes


\book {
  \score { %1
\music
  }
  \score { %2
\music
  }
  \score { %3
\music
  }
}
%%

 With the Cambodian script fonts that I use, Title and Subtitle of the headers
 often have zero vertical spacing (line gap) and can touch, but I have not 
 found
 how I can increase this spacing by a little. All spacing commands and tweaks
 seem to apply only to staves and text within a score.

I think this is a bug, I'll file a report. It's the same no matter
what font is used.

See a possible solution below.

 How can I generally increase the linespacing between two lines of markup 
 outside
 the staves without adding a new line?

You can include an empty element in your markup:

\markup {
  \column {
\null %% This adds an empty element above the text.
\fontsize #7  {Your text}
  }
}

Cheers,
Valentin

 I think this is a bug, I'll file a report. It's the same no matter

Actually, there is no collision when using the default font, even
though there could be more space:



\markup \column {\fontsize #0.1 ppp \fontsize #10 XX}

\header {
  title = \markup \medium \fontsize #0.1 ppp
  subtitle = \markup \medium \fontsize #10 XX
}



So, I think this is because your characters go below the line.
Again, this can easily be fixed by adding some space inside your
subtitle markup.

Valentin
