Back in town

2014-08-25 Thread Ralph Palmer
Greetings, Bug Listers -

I'm back in town, and ready to start working on the bug list again, if you
want my help. I've been out of town (on the road) and out of touch. What
days are available? If there's an open day and anyone wants to switch to
it, I'm willing to consider it.

Catch you all later,

Ralph

Re: New feature suggestion

 A new accidental for entering natural notes would be useful.
 
 In English, this would be 'n', as in 'bn4' or 'gn2'.
 

This is in the bug tracker as
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=4076

It is easy to add an alternate name for a pitch, just like we already
have csharp and cs.  If anyone defined variables names 'an', 'bn', etc.
their files will fail if we treat bn as a note-name, but if they run
convert-ly on their input files those variables can be automatically 
renamed to something like 'renamed_an' etc.

Can anyone think of other downsides to adding 'bn' as a note name ?

Should languages using the moveable-do system, French, Spanish, etc.,
have a similar alternate name for the accidental natural pitches ?

Re: Short ottava ambiguity

2014-08-25 Thread Keith OHara
Simon Albrecht simon.albrecht at mail.de writes:

 By default, OttavaBracket has a minimum-length of 1 and the text is 
 right-aligned to the first note in the range of the ottavation. Thus, 
 it's sometimes impossible to discern from which note on the ottava is 
 supposed to be applied. In short-ottava.ly (see attachment) the ottava 
 applies to both notes, in short-ottava-2.ly only to the second note. Yet 
 the output is identical.

This is in the bug tracker as
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=4077

LilyPond has the facility to leave out the spanner line when the 
endpoints would lie within the 8va text.  We could make that
the default behavior, unless anyone can think of a problem this
might cause.

Another easy option would be to, allow the spanner line to become very
short. 
  \override Staff.OttavaBracket.minimum-length = #0.05
This option looks good to me if we also shift the beginning of all
'8va' texts left by a bit.
  \override Staff.OttavaBracket.shorten-pair = #'(-0.5 . -0.6)
