Re: Grace Notes + Lyrics
The easiest is simply to put an empty syllable in the lyrics,
\version 2.6.0
\score{
\relative c''{g4 \grace bes8 a a r4 f8 g}
\addlyrics {Land: _ Er -- de, und die }
}
but maybe it's more idiomatic typesetting to use a acciaccatura
instead (I'm not sure what the standard typesetting practice is, though).
\version 2.6.0
\score{
\relative c''{g4 \acciaccatura bes8 a a r4 f8 g}

lilypond tends to put 'Er --' on the grace note, which naturally
kills the alignment for the rest of the music. How do I put empty
space on the grace value? I tried ignoreMelisma but I was basically
guessing in my placement of \set and \unset.

strange beam behavior
Hello Lilypond folks,I'm a (relatively) novice Lilypond user. I'm working on some non-measured (cadenza-like) material and have encountered a strange situation.The five sixteenth notes of the 2nd figure in Line 3 ... c8 ( [ \setTextCresc d16\ c b c ) e\staccato ] ... should all be beamed together. What I'm seeing in the output is the second flag on the d facing left all by itself, then the remaining 4 sixteenths beamed together with both flags. If I remove the first (unaffected) figure, the problem resolves in the second figure, but moves to the third figure. (It all makes sense if you compile and look at the output.)On a related note, the way this code is currently edited, line 4 looks OK. BUT, if I remove the "modified" line 3, you'll see the same strange beam behavior in the "fis16 [ ( g" sixteenth notes in the middle of the line.Any ideas on how to make these beamings work?Thanks!\version "2.6.3"melody = \relative c'' { \key g \major\override Staff.TimeSignature #'transparent = ##t\override Score.BarNumber #'transparent = ##t\cadenzaOn% Line 3 % ORIGINAL - doesn't work - first figure OK, second figure wrong, third and fourth figures OK.b4 ( c16 [ b a b ) d\staccato ] c8 ( [ \setTextCresc d16\ c b c ) e\staccato ] d8 ( [ e16 d cis d ) f\staccato ] e8 ( [ f!16 e dis e ) g\staccato ] f!1\f \breathe\bar "" \break% MODIFIED - removed first figure - now it moves the error into the next figure - why?c8 ( [ \setTextCresc d16\ c b c ) e\staccato ] d8 ( [ e16 d cis d ) f\staccato ] e8 \( [ f!16 e dis e \) g\staccato ] f!1\f \breathe\bar "" \break% FIXME: fix sixteenth note beams in first figure in line above% Line 4 e16 ( [ g f! ] ) cis!

\book usage
Hello.
To generate a piece with multiple movements, I'm used to the
following document layout, which compiles fine:
%--- all.ly ---
\version 2.6.0
\paper {
raggedbottom = ##f
raggedlastbottom = ##t
}
\header {
\include header.inc.ly
}
\include all_allegro.ly
\include all_siciliana.ly
\include all_bourree.ly
\include all_menuet.ly
\include all_trio.ly
%-
all_allegro.ly includes all_allegro.inc.ly and contains a \score.
all_allegro.inc.ly defines a StaffGroup and includes all the parts
for this movement, e.g. recorder_allegro.inc.ly which defines the
a variable (recorderNotes) containing the note sequence.
[And similarly for the other movements.]
Now, in the documentation for 2.6.3, I read about the \book block;
so, I changed the above into
%--- all.ly ---
\version 2.6.0
\paper {
raggedbottom = ##f
raggedlastbottom = ##t
}
\book {
\header {
\include header.inc.ly
}
\include all_allegro.ly
\include all_siciliana.ly
\include all_bourree.ly
\include all_menuet.ly
\include all_trio.ly
}
%-
but lilypond doesn't like it:

technique for mixing / matching tunes
What is the recommended technique for defining tunes in separate files
so that they can be used to generate pdf with only that tune, or pdf
wth several consecutive tunes? For example (what I'm try and failing
with--I thing because I use variables outside of score but inside of
book):
caution: approximate/brief lilypond syntax below
tune_a.ly:
parta = { ... }
partb = { ... }
score { parta partb headerinfo }
tune_b.ly
parta = { ... }
partb = { ... }
score { parta partb headerinfo }
tune_a-single.ly: generated on the fly with make/sh
include single_tune_hdr.ly
include tune_a.ly
set_one.ly:
include set_hdr.ly
book {
include tune_a.ly
include tune_b.ly
}
Everything works fine except for set_one.ly. I tried putting the
variable defs inside score but that didn't work. It works if I don't
use variable, but I rely heavily on using variables. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jason

Problem with title fonts
Hello group, I'm a novice Lilypond user. I'm working with lilypond 2.4.5 in debian. I intalled lilypond with apt-get.

Re: strange beam behavior
Hi Scott,
Even though it is a cadenza, the beams still work in
4/4. If you count it out, you will realise that the
beams are split in the natural place for 4/4 time. To
override this, please read the Manual beams section in
the manual
Cheers,

Re: Fun with \include english.ly
After some experimentation. I've discovered that the problem was doing
the include inside a {} block.
english.ly defines a variable, which, it seems, can't be done inside a
block. I didn't see anything on this in the tutorial or manual. Did I
miss something obvious?

problem or bug?
To whom it may concern,
Hi, I have some problems here with Lilypond 2.6.3. I've attached both
example.ly and example.pdf for your reference.
In the 2nd bar, why is the appoggiatura slur not attached to the note heads
of both the appoggiatura and the main note? Instead, as shown, the slur is
at the end of the stem.
In the 5th bar, I'm puzzled as to why the running trill line does not span
to the end of the bar when I explicitly attached the \stopTrillSpan at the
last spacer quarter note of the bar? I could cheat by attaching
\stopTrillSpan to a hidden grace note at the end of the bar but I wouldn't
like to do this everytime.
Can both these problems be rectified or are they bugs of version 2.6.3?
Thank you.
Yours sincerely,
Seng Liang.

Re: technique for mixing / matching tunes
Exactly, so the root of the poblem is that this doesn't work:
book {
parta = { ... }
partb = { ... }
score { parta partb header{ ... } }
}
or, slightly more general case:
book {
parta = { something1 }
partb = { something2 }
score { parta partb header{ ... } }
parta = { something3 }
partb = { something4 }
score { parta partb header{ ... } }
}
Though, for my application, this may be an entirely wrong solution in
the first place.

I put the result of the comand $ lilypond --png petite-ouverture-a-danser.ly in http://www.dcc.uchile.cl/~dhernand/lilypond/ How I can get the font correctly?

Doc translation
Hi On the wiki http://wikihost.org/wikis/lilypond/programm/gebo.prg?name=discus , [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Well, I just mailed Jan N. about starting a Wiki for the translation of the entire manual into Dutch. He mailed me back, that this already existes, kinda... All I found, was a very difficult site where I couldn't find what I was looking for. What is this very difficult site? Is it a message in the mailing list archive? More precisely, is it [[http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2005-09/msg00017.html]]? If not, could you please give the URL? Well, now I hope, anyone will mail me, how to make any translation into the Wiki. I'm not (I repeat; I'm not!) a developer, just a choir director. But willing to translate is my spare time. I'm not a developer either, but I'm trying to make something similar to the infrastructure used to translate the website, starting with patch from Jan (see above message link). I hope you're not in a hurry, because I can't spend much time on it, and I'm a newbie concerning makefiles and Texinfo. I've read the Texinfo info pages, and now I'm trying to figure out how to debug the makefile. I'll submit ideas and problems on the list later, when I really know what I talk about. French translators are waiting for it too. By the way, I hope you will find other Dutch people interested in doing this job, in order to do it faster and better. We (the French translators) have managed to translate most of the website with a good quality, haven't we? As we are a team, we read and improve each other's work, until it looks good.

Could you explain why it doesn't work?
AFAIK, named music expressions *have to* be defined at toplevel, not
within a \book or \score block. So, a simple thing to do may be moving
every
\include staff_movement.inc.ly
statement from all_movement.inc.ly to all.ly, before \book. You will
certainly have to rename expressions to avoid redefinitions, e.g. you'll
have to replace each recorderNotes occurence with
movementRecorderNotes
otherwise all movements will be the same.

Of course, I thought of this solution, but it provides a much less
systematic and maintainable layout :-{
Instead of only having instrument name based variables (and reuse them
for each movement), there must now be every combination of instrument
and movement name variables, and worse even, since everything must be
defined before actual use (in \book), you have to keep track of all the
other variables that could have been defined to simplify input (e.g.
repetitive patterns) in a given instrument and be sure that the name
won't be used in another file included later on...
In the documentation, section 11.1.1, about Input variables and Scheme,
it is mentioned that variables can also be defined in \header, \midi and
\layout blocks.
Is there some inherent impossibility to being able to do the same for
\book?
Or, is there another recommended way to build documents from reusable
elements, as was asked in another post today?
Thanks,
Gilles

Re: problem or bug?
example.ly and example.pdf for your reference. In the 2nd bar, why is the appoggiatura slur not attached to the note heads of both the appoggiatura and the main note? Instead, as shown, the slur is at the end of the stem. The appogiatura slur placement is probably a bug, but it is easy to fix by overriding 'positions: \override Voice.Slur #'positions = #'(0 . 0) In the 5th bar, I'm puzzled as to why the running trill line does not span to the end of the bar when I explicitly attached the \stopTrillSpan at the last spacer quarter note of the bar? I could cheat by attaching \stopTrillSpan to a hidden grace note at the end of the bar but I wouldn't like to do this everytime. In fact this is what I do every time. Is it so much trouble? You can also attach the \stopTrillSpan to a rest and hide that, eg. \once \override Rest #'transparent = ##t r8\stopTrillSpan Cheers, Edward Neeman Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!

After some experimentation. I've discovered that the problem was
doing the include inside a {} block.
english.ly defines a variable, which, it seems, can't be done inside a

I miss something obvious?
In file structure, it only says that definitions can be done at the
