*single* tie in chord
Hi I cannot figure out how to get a tie between only one of the notes in a chord, like this: (excuse my poor ascii art) -|-|- -|-|- -|--|---|--|- -|--|---|--|- -|--o---o--|- -o- -o- \_/ This is what I tried (including the obvious , that really is the way it should be done IMHO), lily 1.5.63: \include "paper20.ly" %\version "1.5.63" \header { title = "Single tie in chord" composer = "Atte André Jensen" tagline = " " footer = " " } tHide = \property Voice.Tie \override #'transparent = ##t tShow = \property Voice.Tie \override #'transparent = ##f melody = \notes \relative c' \context Voice = LHa { | <~c e> | <{c ~ c\tHide ~ c ~ c}{e e e e}> | \tShow ~ | <{c ~ c c c}{e e e ~ e}> } \score { \context Staff = melody { \time 4/4 \melody } \paper { } } -- love, peace & harmony Atte ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
type `direction'
If I do: \property Voice.Slur \set #'direction = #'up I get: Type check for `direction' failed; value `up' must be of type `direction' What am I doing wrong? -- love, peace & harmony Atte ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: type `direction'
AAJ> \property Voice.Slur \set #'direction = #'up You mean: \set #'direction = #1 for "up" and \set #'direction = #-1for "down" But why not simply make use of the shortcuts as defined in the 'property-init.ly' file: \slurDown a ( ) b \slurUp a ( ) b -- Jérémie ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: *single* tie in chord
Did you try setting \property Voice.sparseTies = ##t ?

Well, yes and no! The problem of attaching these decorations to spacing notes in a separate line of music is that Lilypond won't always realize where to place them vertically to avoid collisions with the actual music. If the same performance instructions should be added to several instrumental parts, for example, then I would handle them separately. Otherwise, keep them together with the music, which makes it easier to edit and avoids more collisions. > > 2) There's a lot of clashes between almost everything.

For the title, just use ordinary LaTeX, i.e. insert an extra \\ or \\[5mm] or whatever at the end of the composer field (or whatever field is printed closest to the music). For the spacing between the staves, the referenced part of the manual (first go to http://lilypond.org/development) is relevant. > > 4) crescendo/diminuendo/dynamic markings should be possible to put either > > above and below systems + between staffs.

Who volunteers to document these macros in the manual? They should definitely be there and they don't change very often so it's not worth the trouble to automate the documentation. /Mats ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Yes, but there are very many of them, and listing them in a handwritten document is a lot of work. I plan to dump all music identifiers to the internals document once Music is really Schemified.

Since the macro names are so self explanatory, it's almost enough to just list them, no need for a long explanation of each one. /Mats ___ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
VerticalAlignment in PianoStaff
Here: http://www.lilypond.org/development/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/Vertical-spacing.html#Vertical%20spacing I read: "The piano staffs are handled a little differently: to make cross-staff beaming work correctly, it necessary that the distance between staves is fixed. This is also done with a VerticalAlignment grob, created in PianoStaff , but a forced distance is set. This is done with the grob property #'forced-distance. If you want to override this, use a \translator block as follows: \translator { \PianoStaffContext VerticalAlignment \override #'forced-distance = #9 } This would bring the staffs together at a distance of 9 staff spaces, and again this is measured from the center line of each staff." Great! But I can't figure out where to put the code... Asumed it was just after my \context PianoStaff but that gives me an "error: parse error, expecting `STRING':" on the "{" in the above code. Newbies like me really need to see stuff in context to get the big picture, so is someone could post a working .ly with VertivalAlignment *in PianoStaff*, that would be extremely helpful.
