Thanks for the suggestion, the code below will work nice as a 
workaround.
I'll settle with it for engraving, and using the former for midi.

\score {
  << \ss
\new GrandStaff <<
  \new Staff {
\set Staff.instrument = \markup { "V1"   }
\set Staff.instr = \markup { "V1"   }
{ \keyAM \clefva \vaAM }
  }
  \new Staff {
\set Staff.instrument = \markup { "V2"  }
\set Staff.instr = \markup { "V2"  }
{ \keyAM \clefvb \vbAM }
  }

  \new Staff {
\set Staff.instrument = \markup { "Va"  }
\set Staff.instr = \markup { "Va"  }
{ \keyAM \clefvc \vcAM }
  }
  \new Staff {
\set Staff.instrument = \markup { "BC" }
\set Staff.instr = \markup { "BC" }
{ \keyAM \clefvd \vdAM }
  }
  \context FiguredBass \fbAM

No, IIRC lilypond names them
foo.midi
foo.midi-1
foo.midi-2
foo.midi-3
Unfortunately foo-midi-1 actually refers to the _second_ excerpt, but 
at least
they're not overwritten.

At least, old lilypond did this.  If current versions don't, then I'd 
consider this a bug.

Attatched is a version or act1.ly, act1_.ly, that puts the final movement in 
its own score block. I know you may not want to put each movement in its own 
score, but lilypond expects this by default and notice how all the problems 
associated with doing it as you have it set up disappear.

Karl,

No, the unwanted accidentals are still there if I remove the midi block.

Yes, that is what happens e.g. in my all.ly, only the last act is in
the midi file.
It would be nice if midi worked the sames as engraving, just as the

Re: removing unwanted accidentals

2005-04-16 Thread Bernard Hurley
I can't think of a situation where anyone except a beginner who didn't
understand the philosopy behind lllypond would want to use a
"no-accidental" style. OTOH it is useful to have workarounds for bugs.
\noAccidental seems ideal for this. It is not as cumbersome as having to
change the accidental-style for a single not but is awkward enough (in a
way that something like \& is not) to prompt the user to seek an
alternative. The documentation for it could say something like:

"If you find yourself using \noAccidental frequently the the chances are
that you are either using the wrong accidental style or have found a bug
in LilyPond."

I don't want the singer/instrumentalist to believe that the composer or 
me
demands that this note to have this accidental, since it is not in the
original score.
And since the 'forget did not work for two notes, it would nice to have
something to force it away, so I don't have to delay till the bug hunt 
is over.

I see, since I have trouble with lilyponds barnumbering, I sort of do 
it myself.
Then I have to:
. keep track of number of bars per movement (= offset for next movement)
. add up the offsets per movements
. make sure it woun't print a "1"?

Ok, that is a way to do it.

Can I in the same time tell the print function to not to align to a 
breath mark
just before the bar line, detect if there is a volta spanner, staff 
group bracket,
note or slur to avoid?

We don't have to document the feature in a way such that novices will be able
to
use it. I just htink it's a good idea to have the feature for completeness. If
there is a bug somewhere that makes an unwanted accidental pop up, it's nice if
there is a possiblilty to just write a quick workaround.

What I meant, was related to Karl's example. I don't have lily where I am now,
but imagine a combo of his and my example; something like

\key d\major fis4 r r r | f2 f | \set Score.barNumber = #1 r2 f |

Here someone might want to avoid the natural before the last f (there might
exist better examples), and I think it's impossible with current lily due to
the bug Karl found.

It's just an example, and it's constructed, but shows that there is a potential
need for this kind of setting. I can recall earlier discussions with similar
content.

The main reason I want it, however, is the philosophy that if you want to tweak
something, you often want to express exactly what you are tweaking, no more, no
less. All Karl wanted to express in his code, was that for a particular note,
the accidental should be turned off. He didn't want to express that this note
belongs to a part of the music which uses an alternative practise for
displaying accidentals. 


Another application of a \noAccidental feature, is a mail that was sent some
days ago to lily-user iirc. There was a sharp before the cis2 in {cis1~\break
cis2}, and this person (Thomas iirc) wanted to suppress this. 
You could do that like
{cis1~\break #(set-accidental-style 'no-forget) cis2 #(set-accidental-style
'default) }
but IMHO this would be more logical, & easier to read and write:
{cis1~\break cis2\noAccidental}

I'm changing my mind about syntax - I think the best way would be to have a new

Yes, of course you can substitute -100 for 100 then, or alternatively do
(- (...) 100) iso. (+ 100 (...))

Re: removing unwanted accidentals

2005-04-16 Thread Stephen
Karl,
The problem appears when you put all the movements together **under the same 
score**. I consider this to be a midi bug. If you put each movement in its 
own score, all your engraving problems would disapear, the movements would 
appear as they do in the separate scores. The midi files would overwrite 
each other as the movements were processed leaving the midi file only 
representing the final movement.

It would be nice if midi worked the sames as engraving, just as the separate 
scores are concatenated into the same book with a default amount of space 
separating each one, might not the midi files from each score be 
concatenated into the same midi file with a default amount of silence 
between each score?

This amounts to asking that \midi {} work outside of the score block. 
Instead of this:

\book {
 \score { \music1 \layout {} \midi {} }
 \score { \music2 \layout {} \midi {} }
 \score { \music3 \layout {} \midi {} }
 \score { \music4 \layout {} \midi {} }
}
we have:
\book {
 \score { \music1 \layout {} }
 \score { \music2 \layout {} }
 \score { \music3 \layout {} }
 \score { \music4 \layout {} }
 \midi {}
}
I don't think this works though. So instead, you should remove the \layout 
{} from inside your \score {} block to create the midi file and make a new 
\book {} block for the layout, like this:

\score {
 \music1
 \music2
 \music3
 \music4
 \midi {}
}
or however you already are doing it, but without any \layout {} blocks and:
\book {
 \score { \music1 \layout {} }
 \score { \music2 \layout {} }
 \score { \music3 \layout {} }
 \score { \music4 \layout {} }
}
with no midi.
In addition, it would be nice if you added different midi instruments to the 
voices:

\set Staff.midiInstrument = "violin" etc.
I haven't been very helpful to you so far, but I think this is all useful 
advice, germane to your project.

Re: removing unwanted accidentals

2005-04-15 Thread Stephen
I think we want Lilypond to continue to follow standard practive. If we give
users the ability to violate those rules then total novices will start
making mistakes.
I think you know that in the example you gave, a person reading the score
would just play an f sharp where you want an f natural if you suppressed the
natural. Why supply a way to suppress that natural if we also have to say
never actually do if you do not want them to play f sharp? Another way of
putting it is that you could suppress the natural in that case, just by
writing fis instead of f, that is what someone reading it would play anyway,
so what's the point?
I am saying here that automatic control of accidentals is better, given the
number of choices we already have. In this case 'forget' solved the problem.

You could use something like this (based on print-circled-text-callback in 
scm/output-lib.scm) to achieve what you want more cleanly. It works with 
2.5.19, but not with 2.4 for some reason.

\version "2.4.0"

  (let* ( ;(text (ly:grob-property grob 'text))
 (text (number->string (+ 100 (string->number (ly:grob-property grob

 (layout (ly:grob-layout grob))
 (defs (ly:output-def-lookup layout 'text-font-defaults))
 (props (ly:grob-alist-chain grob defs))
 (text-stencil (Text_interface::interpret_markup layout props text)))
(ly:stencil-add (centered-stencil text-stencil


\new Staff {
\set Score.barNumberVisibility = #(every-nth-bar-number-visible 1)
\override Score.BarNumber  #'print-function =
#print-+100-text-callback

\repeat unfold 9 { c1 \break } \bar "|."
}

Yes. The bigger picture is H. Purcells opera "Dido & Æneas":

 http://aspodata.se/motett/noter/act*

I did not like idea of big bar number, like 543.
I think it is better with aria/movement 23, bar 25.

> 
> > However, I fixed it by setting the accidental style to 'forget'. See? there
> > is already a way to do it.

*No*, the forget does not work for:
 act 1, aria 13, bar  6 Violin II: the b is shown with natural
 act 1, aria 13, bar 11 Violin  I: the f is shown with natural
Elsewhere yes, but not for theese two notes.

I don't know how to solv theese.
If I put another f before bar 11 for V1, that f gets the natural.
It seems that the first f, in this case, gets the natural, and I
tried to insert a \hideNote f \unHideNote, but it was still visible.

Btw, I solved the issue for the other places by starting each aria like:

  \set Score.explicitKeySignatureVisibility = #begin-of-line-visible
  \set Score.printKeyCancellation = ##f
  \key c \minor

when the previous part already was in c minor.

It would be nice if I could write:

  \key c \minor \music02
  \key c \minor \music03
  \key c \minor \music04
  \key c \minor \music05

and the key-engraver only shows the key signature when it *changes*.
I tried hack around in lily/key-engraver.cc and doing things like
if (scm_is_eq (last, key)) return, found no solution.

Possible, but for this case I would prefer:
1, fixing the bug
2, make key-engraver only show changes

The reason for 2, is that I prefer to put the workaround in one place,
instead of littering down the .ly with bug-corrections, that must be
refound when the bug is removed.

Hi,
There seems to be a need for a way to notate that a single note should 
_not_
have an accidental displayed, something like a 'force-no-accidental'
property.

I think there was a discussion about this over a year ago, without a
conclusion. Now there have been 2 or 3 (implicit) requests for it in a 
short
time, and IMHO it's a reasonable feature.

Also it looks pretty trivial to implement; may I give it a try?
