It seems that the right half of the rehearsal mark affects the
note spacing if you have a \mark in the middle of a bar.
From the documentation and by analogy with text scripts, you
would expect to be able to set no-spacing-rods, but it doesn't seem
to have any effect. The only solution I could find was to set X-extent,
but then the text will be left aligned, no matter if the self-alignment-X
property is set to center of right alignment.

Example:

\version 2.6.0
\score{
\relative c'{
% Setting no-spacing-rods has no effect!?
\override Score.RehearsalMark #'no-spacing-rods = ##t

% Uncommenting the following line fixes the problem that
% the right half of the mark occupies space, but gives
% left alignment.
%\override Score.RehearsalMark #'X-extent = #'(0 . 0)

c d e f | g f \mark ABCDEFGH e d | c1 }
\layout{raggedright = ##t}
}


On the other hand, in the middle of a bar, you could often just as well
use a text script attached to a note or to a spacing note.

Wait a second, I just found another workaround. Since rehearsal marks
don't occupy any extra space when used at a bar line, you could add an
invisible bar line in the middle of a bar and attach the rehearsal mark 
to it:


\version 2.6.0
\score{
\relative c'{
c4 d e f | g f \mark ABCDEFGH \bar  e d | c1 }
\layout{raggedright = ##t}
}

Maybe the conclusion after all is that \mark only is designed to be used
at bar lines?

Hi list, Hi Mats,

In general I agree that \mark is the best way to add
tempos, etc. at the top of the score.  However I
have
problems when I need a tempo marking in the middle
of
a bar, since for some reason a Rehearsal mark not on
the barline take up a lot of horizontal space.  Is
there a way to prevent this- without adding extra
bar-lines everywhere?

Cheers,
Edward Neeman

Rods are not the only spacing device. When you attach a mark without a 
barline, Lily doesn't know how to define stretchable space for the 
X-position relative to the notes, since there is no barline connecting 
the notes and the mark. It will then take the width of the mark as a 
measure of the desired space.

RE: Running Lilypond through jEdit in Windows

2005-10-31 Thread Stephan Moss
Checking the Apple site, it looks like Java 5 is availabel for OS X now:
Java 2 SE 5.0 Release 1
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/java2se50release1.html

This is probably a dumb question, but what does  Volume 35, Issue 56 refer to?  
Until the jEdit plugin central gets updated, I'd still like trying to use the 
new version of the tool.

Thanks

Steve

You need Java 5.0 (aka 1.5) for this version (and now on). I know this is sad 
for Mac users, but I would not have had enough motivation to work on 
LilyPondTool if I must stay with 1.4

 Hi!
 
 I did folow the procedure outlined by Bertalan Fodor in vol 35 issue
56.
 
 When loading the lilytool 0.2.8-6 all I get is an Error message:
 
 Cannot start: java.lang. Unsuported ClassVersionError,
 Lilytool/lilytool.jar:
 (Unsuported major.minor version 49.0 ) try uploading to a newer
version 
 of the plugin.
 
 
 Is there anything wrong with my setup? or is this a bug? 
allternatively 
 did I stupidly do something wrong?
 
 Yours Anders Stenberg

transparent stem

2005-10-31 Thread Arthur Dyck
I've just started using lilypond and I think I'm over my head with the music 
I'm working on.  I'm trying to get transparent stems by using \once \override 
Stem #'transparent = ##t a4.  This isn't working for me.  What am I doing 
wrong?

Thanks

Arthur

That looks right and it works for me.  Can you give
the example in context?
