If you look at http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/notation/proportional-notation and the third example down, there's a single piece of music repeated three times but with different options on spacing. I've noticed a number of similar examples. I'd find it clearer if the music were assigned to a variable, and the examples used that variable - it would be absolutely clear what was changed between the examples. It would also save a little space. Is there a reason for not doing this? -- Phil Holmes ___ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel

Well, I see nothing wrong with using a music variable here. We are
rather careful in the tutorial not to introduce material before it has
been explained, but I think that we don't have similarly stringent
linearity rules for the NR.

Re: Ignoring note value when spacing notes and rests
Hello, 2013/6/15 Phil Holmes em...@philholmes.net I'm setting a piece of late 16th century music (it's in Musica Transalpina), and at this time notes and rests tended to occupy a space determined by their fitment on the page, rather than their note value. I've read the section of the NR on proportional spacing, which does exactly the opposite of what I want. Is there a way to force essentially uniform spacing, regardless of note value? How about this solution? http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2010-08/msg00301.html HTH -- Marek Klein http://gregoriana.sk Gregoriana on youtubehttp://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLBQHqmaUgUMZ4Bd4w4heeQF9lV9L7BS-s ___ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel

Exactly so. The NR is intended to be a reference document, not a
linear read like the LM.
A music variable would be fine here.

REQUEST: \whiteout using grob stencil instead of bounding box
Hi all,
Is there any [easy] way for the \whiteout command, and/or the #'whiteout
property, to use a grob's stencil outline instead of its bounding box?
whiteFFMarkup = \markup { \whiteout \pad-markup #0.5 \dynamic ff}
whiteFF = #(make-dynamic-script whiteFFMarkup)
\paper { ragged-right = ##f }
\score {
{ s4-\tweak #'extra-offset #'(2 . 4.5) \whiteFF }
}
I would love to be able to set a #'whiteout.margin (or .border or .thickness or
whatever) property, and have it simply outline the grob. Of course, if this
were implemented, it would be great to retain the current behaviour (i.e., the
bounding box whiteout).
Thanks,
Kieren.
p.s. Mike: If you've got time for some more bounty work, this might be a great
place to start! =)

Most of that stencil-integral stuff was written in Scheme and then ported to
C++. It'd need some updating, but digging that up is a place to start for the
intrepid schemer. You'd just need to create C++ bindings for the
Open_type_font::get_glyph_outline function.
Unfortunately, time is not on my side these days. Once I have some, and if no
one gets to it before I do, I'll let you know.
Cheers,

(this is *really* free since it uses the SIL Open Font License). Totally! That means it can be used, bundled, modified and redistributed freely (SIL OFL is a copyleft license, considered free by the Free Software Foundation, as well as by the Debian project). So we could imagine some sort of music font package that could be used by LilyPond instead (or better, alongside with) Feta, same for Gonville, LilyJazz (and now Bravura). People on the French users mailing lists are really enthusiasts about Torsten's Jazz font, but they have somehow hard time to make it work properly in LilyPond. Some of them do not like the aspect (font) of some glyphs/grobs of LilyPond and would like to change the music font *grob by grob*. So it would be possible to mix Feta, Gonville, LilyJazz (and Bravura) music font in one same score. Easier support for alternative music fonts, (text) jazz font for chords as well as fontspec-like OpenType font features are three majors improvements for LilyPond. http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=870 http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1494 http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1388 Maybe this could be added as a special Google Summer of Code project (in the spirit of Google free webfonts), or some kind of Kikstarter(-like) project?
