Re: Problem with opening Cygwin
So, it seems that you have downloaded the program successfully. Follow the instructions at http://lilypond.org/web/install/windows on how to run a test file. Then go on to read the Tutorial. LilyPond is very different from most other programs you have seen in Windows, but once you get used to it, I hope you will find it very convenient. At least that's what many others on the mailing list have found. /Mats [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, I look forward to using this program.

Re: ec-fonts-mftraced installed properly
If you don't specify that .map file and use this package, then you will get bitmapped fonts, which doesn't really do any harm as long as you print the scores on paper or view the Postscript file without zooming in too much. However, if you view a PDF file with bitmapped fonts on the screen, it will usually look terribly fuzzy, which is why the vectorized fonts (Type1 fonts) in ec-fonts-mftraced are used by default. Maybe the information in http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2005-05/msg00207.html can help you get further. /Mats Sterling Sympatico wrote: Hi, Mats... I think the fonts are installed as properly as can be in linux. I did a 'dpkg-reconfigure ec-fonts-mftraced' and then ran 'texhash' for good measure. All went fine. I still need to NOT specify the .map file to have success. If I specify the map file, my output fonts look bad. Thanks for the suggestion.

relative mode
I'm not a good musician. In other words, I never can tell when the next note is going to be octave up or down. On other hand it's difficult to enter scores without relative mode, too much typing. So how to cope with this? Is it possible to tune vim that it would show where the last note is going to be placed relative to previous? Or may be there is a simple rule to determine if the next note is going to jump? Currently I have to enter a few measures and compile to fix several misplaced notes and it's very slow... -- Roman V.

Re: relative mode
As long as the music stays mostly within the same octave, you might
find it easier to use absolute mode and just transpose it to the right
octave. Example:
\score{
\transpose c c'{
c4 c g g | a a g2 | f4 f e e | d d c2 |
g4 c' f d' | e g, d2 |
}
}

Re: relative mode
In general, the rule of thumb is that LilyPond assumes any given note is close to the previous note. A fourth above and a fifth below, if I recall correctly. So, c f would be a C, followed by the F above it, while c g would be a C followed by the G below it. Makes sense? -ATR- On 6/21/05, Roman V. Isaev [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm not a good musician.

Re: Extending beamed stems
Hmm. This is a real puzzler, because even though the Beam object
implements the grob-interface, only certain grob properties have any
effect. Specifically, I tried the following on a small test file and
they did nothing:
\once \override Voice.Beam #'X-extent = #'(0 . 15)
\once \override Voice.Beam #'extra-X-extent = #'(0 . 15)
Oddly enough, the following DID have an effect:
\once \override Voice.Beam #'extra-offset = #'(0 . 15)
but of course I can't really imagine any use for this.
Here's an idea:
1. Just beam from the first three notes over to the high G-flat.
2. On the D in the left hand, do a \once \override Voice.Stem
#'flag-style = #'no-flag, and do a \stemUp.
3. On the D in the left hand, do a \once \override NoteColumn
#'force-hshift = #-1. Adjust this value until the stem is aligned
perfectly with the stem of the note in the right hand.
4. On the D in the left hand, do a \once \override Voice.Stem #'length =
#12 or however long it needs to be to meet up with the beam.
I did my research out of the 2.5 manual, so your mileage may vary; but I
don't think there's anything especially late-breaking about any of the
features I used above. The noteheads of the eighth-notes in the left
right hands won't be horizontally aligned, but their stems will meet the
beam in the same place. Is that acceptable?

Henrik Frisk wrote:
I'm running lilypond 2.4.5 (fink installation) on OSX 10.3.9. Attached to this
mail is an example. Although this bar works OK the way it is, I would have
liked to beam it 1/4+1/8 rather than 1/8+1/8+1/8. Either by connecting the
lower beam of the first 1/8 note group to the stem of the second eighth note
(from a notation point of view this would be unorthodox since one of the note
heads would end up on the wrong side of the stem). The other way would be to
have the beam go below all notes on beat one and two (counting eihgth notes).
Here's the code for the bar:
\time 3/8
ges'''16~[ \revert Beam #'positions ges64 \change Staff=lower f,32. ]
\change Staff=upper \stemExtend \noFlag ges'8- \noBeam
\acciaccatura { g32^\pedalc } \change Staff = lower b,,,32 [ \change Staff =
upper f''~ f16~ ] |
And here are the \noFlag and \stemExtend:
noFlag = \once \override Stem #'flag-style = #'no-flag
stemExtend = \once \override Stem #'length = #32
...and attached is an image.
This is the first piece I do in LilyPond, so I'm not very experienced yet.
Tahnks for any help.
