From this, I conclude that you could probably (?) say \set Score.minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-7 . 7) to get it to apply to all the staves in a Score. There's a piece I'm The best way to do this is like this: \layout { \context { \Score minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-7 . 7) }} Nicolas is trying to do something a bit more difficult; he wants to have this set automatically, which is very tricky to program.

Re: Can Span bar engraver only print at linebreaks?
It seems that the handling of break-visibility has changed between versions 2.4 and 2.6. However, it seems to work with \override SpanBar #'break-visibility = #end-of-line-visible in version 2.4. /Mats Thies Albrecht wrote: Hi Mats! \override SpanBar #'break-visibility = #center-invisible What version of Liyl did you use?

Preferred way for text
Hi gurus, What is the preferred way to add general texts? So far I've found two ways that are reasonably 'universal': \mark \markup { MyText } or s1*0 ^\markup { MyText } where the latter has the possibility to position the text above the staff. or is there another way that should be used for general purpose? regards, Hans. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Preferred way for text
Depends on what you want to use it for. For a longer section of text, such as lyrics lines for some verses of a song, you can actually have a \markup{...} completely outside the \score{...}. Hans de Rijck wrote: Hi gurus, What is the preferred way to add general texts?

Yes, assuming that you mean that you can have different text over different staves, as opposed to \mark which only places text over the top stave. or is there another way that should be used for general purpose?

Yet another font problem
Hallo I noticed a strange problem (version: windows 2.7.7) while trying to change some fonts in a markup. \override #'(font-name . binnerd ) works fine, but \override #'(font-name . minion regular ) Comes out with the default(?) font. Both are regular installed and well-working (ttf) fonts. What's wrong with it or have I forgot something?

(doc help, 2.19) transposition sanity check
As a string player, I always get confused when trying to deal with the grammar of transposition. In the below excerpt from the docs, should a fifth downwards be a fourth upwards ? Or a fourth downwards ? Or should the \transpose be written differently? Or...? \hornNotes = { stuff in C (concert pitch, sounding pitches, whatever) } { \transpose f c' \hornNotes } The line \include horn-music.ly substitutes the contents of horn-music.ly at this position in the file, so hornNotes is defined afterwards. The command \transpose f c' indicates that the argument, being \hornNotes, should be transposed by a fifth downwards. Sounding `f' is denoted by notated c', which corresponds with the tuning of a normal French Horn in F. The transposition can be seen in the following output ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

[not downwards] That is to say that the SOUNDING pitch in the horn part (small 'f'; fourth line bass clef) will be notated as 'middle c' (and all other pitches will be move as well, of course). \transpose f c' = small f goes up to middle c It can get confusing if you're not clear about which direction you're going, i.e. to or from concert pitch. Since in this case we're going from concert pitch to notated F-horn pitch it goes UP a 5th. -David ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
