score layout
Hi, I am typing a score for a work for voice and strings and I have a problem
with the score layout. I am using Lilypond version 2.7.12 for Windows (98).
Here is the file:
\version 2.7.12
\relative {
\new ChoirStaff
\new GrandStaff
\new Staff { \set Staff.instrument = Violins 1 c1 }
\new Staff { \set Staff.instrument = Violins 2 c }
\new Staff { \set Staff.instrument = Viola \clef alto c }
\new Staff { \set Staff.instrument = Voice c }
\new Staff { \set Staff.instrument = Bass \clef bass c, } }
As you can see, the score layout used is the old-styled layout, where the voice
staff lies between the viola and the bass. This layout is perfect except for
one thing; How do I connect the vertical barlines between the viola staff and
the violin staff above? The barline break between the viola and voice staff, as
well as between the voice and bass staff, is intended though.
Thank you very much.
Yours sincerely,
Seng Liang.

Thanks for the tip! The music I'm working with has an extra eighth

them all.
Would it be worthwhile to have a debugging your ly files FAQ? It
would be nice to have documented that measure bars will disappear when
you've counted wrong.
Thanks for the quick response!

Why not ask LilyPond itself to assist you in finding the problem.
Just insert a | where you expect to have a bar line (it will also
help you read your own input when working with the score), then
LilyPond will print a warning every time it finds bar that does
not end where you put the |.
However, here it shouldn't be hard to find the problem anyway, since
the b4 in bar 71 begins an 8th before the bar line.

All,
I have been happily using lilypond for a while now but have run into a
real mystery. I've attached the .ly file I'm working on. I'm using
2.6.4.
If you generate the PDF, you'll notice bar lines are missing between
measures 71 and 72 and thereafter, until measure 75. The text 75 for
the measure number should be on the double bar one measure later. It
really looks like something has made lilypond's timing go very strange.
I thought it might be because of the triplet 16ths, but I can comment
those out and the problems before them are still there.
I'm not doning anything complicated at all here so I am at a loss as to
why lilypond stops drawing bar lines and stops counting properly (or at
least gives the appearance of not counting rignt).
Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

Re: piano staff dynamics and template found in docs.
The first one is for the printed output only and the second one is for
MIDI output only (the former has a \layout{...} block and the latter
a \midi{...} block). The only reason I can see is that you want the
dynamic indications to apply to both left and right hand in the
MIDI output, so that's why \dynamics is included in these staves
for MIDI.

Hi,
I am using 2.6.3 now and am looking over the template for putting

I understand:

\dynamics =
\score {
\context PianoStaff
\context Staff=upper \upper
\context Dynamis=dynamics \dynamics
\context Staff=lower \lower
\layout {

but then there is another \score block that doesn't make sense to me. I
guess I need some clarification as to what this second \score block is
for.
Thanks for any simple explanation so I can get my head around the format

Hi Jannik! Now it is playing only the last one [with some other stuff as well) I really dont get it... Maybe it will discourage you a bit... for me on native Windows v2.7.12 your file produces exactly what you desire... except for... first play drumvoice 1 6 times then nr 2 6 times then 3, 4 and 5. If you want no. 1 to be played six times you will have to write 'repeat unfold 6'.

RemoveEmpty``Tab``StaffContext and 'internal properties'
Hi everybody!
I'm new to this list.
First of all, I want show all my gratefulness for the existence of such a
beautiful program like Lilypond. I'm becoming an enthusiastic user of it...
also if my usage isn't so extended. I'm studying it from some weeks and
trying to know better how it works.
I'm using lilypond version 2.6.3.1 for Linux.
Unfortunately I don't have any experience in Scheme (studied only a bit of
LISP some years ago).
Perhaps that would be useful to solve a problem which i'm fallen into. I know
other people were, from the list archive. But I never found an answer to
this, working for my case.
Problem concerns applying known command \RemoveEmptyStaffContext also to
TabStaves.
The quoted command acts only on normal Staff objects, and not on TabStaff
objects (someone suggested also DrumStaff, I don't know).
Others suggested a solution like this (I tried to adapt to my current version,
any mistake??):
\context {
\TabStaff
\remove Axis_group_engraver
\consists Hara_kiri_engraver
\override Beam #'auto-knee-gap = #'()
\override RemoveEmptyVerticalGroup #'remove-first = ##t
}
[ with version 2.6, I had to correct:
- usage of consistsend: doesn't work, I used consists;
- not usable in paper section: I used in layout section; ]
That doesn't work for my sheet cause it remove all TabStaff lines!
At most, I can show only the first (empty) without remove-first.
Wandering around Lilypond documentation, I figured out that a good solution
would be about hacking a bit something in order to correctly set an internal
property.
'Hara_kiri_engraver' create a layout object called 'RemoveEmptyVerticalGroup',
that supports the interface 'hara-kiri-group-interface', that contains the
internal property 'items-worth-living'.
I think that the list defined in that property doesn't contain
TabNoteHeads, while perhaps it should.
Finally, my question: there's a way to manipulate also internal properties
from a .ly source?
Or, at least, there's another working method to reach what I aim?
Thanx for patience!!
Greetings! And good work!! Go on so great!!

Re: Whats wrong with my midi file?
Why not include also a \layout{} block to see what LilyPond does
when it expands the \repeat unfold commands?
I hope you know that ... means play things in parallel.
If you want things played in a sequence, you enclose the sequence
in curly braces, {...}, instead. However, for some intricate reasons
your example does actually give a sequence anyway.
Also, do you have any specific reason to explicitly specify a DrumVoice
only for the first section? Why not include all the piece in the same
DrumVoice context, or simply remove the \new DrumVoice{, since
LilyPond will create one automatically anyway..
As has already been pointed out earlier, you should use \repeat unfold 6
if you want something repeated 6 times.

Hi, I am typing a work for soprano by Mozart and I encountered into a

with the lyrics extender lines. I'm using Lilypond 2.7.12 for Windows. Here

Here, the lyric extender line starts from bar 1 until the beginning of bar 9
and the extender line is meant to be a continous line. However, what
happened
was the line only starts near the middle on bar 4 and is completely missing
on
bar 7. I used a barline break after the 1st bar to show that the extender
line
starts on the 2nd note and not the 1st at the next bar, as it should. Why
is
this? Is this a bug and can it be fixed? Any help will be appreciated. Thank
you very much. Yours sincerely, Seng Liang

rehearsal mark question
Hi, I am using Lilypond 2.7.12 on Windows 98. As stated in the manual, rehearsal marks only appear above a staff. While this is true for most rehearsal marks, there are some exceptions. The most notable one being attacca. The attacca mark appears below a staff for every part, but only appears once in a full score below the bottom most staff. Therefore I would think this is a rehearsal mark and not a markup text. This creates a unique problem. While I can use the \override command to move the attacca mark below a staff for every staff, when combining them into a full score however, the attacca mark appears below the top most staff and not the bottom most. Is there a way to fix this? Thank you very much. Yours sincerely, Seng Liang. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

4-voice, 3-staff score with 2 lines of lyrics
Hi Lilypond people,
I have been trying this stuff to render well since days, digging deeper
and deeper into the docs, but without success. Attached is an extract to
show my progress and to get help.
The beginning is a 7-measure intro (played on piano), the last measure
shown to the choir. The problem is: I can not get the ABCDEFGH lyrics
line rendered, which is going to be the lyrics for both soprano and alt.
(Tenor and bass has the same, abcdefgh lyrics, which is rendered
right.) I enclosed those into a \book because there are going to be some
unisono parts as well, which are a snap.
I think the whole problem is that I have single staff poliphony (soprano
and alt on the same staff, but not as chords) versus only one line of
lyrics.
So please help me: what should I write into that .ly to have it rendered
as it should?

Polyphony and multiple voice contexts
I've only been working with Lilypond for a couple months, but I haven't been
able to figure this out by the manual. I'm using version 2.6.4-5 for
Windows.
I use Lilypond for engraving congregational hymns. Almost all the songs
are in
4-parts, and have the 3 verses followed by a single chorus. All the
lyrics should appear between the staves. I want the flags on the staff
to face opposite
directions (soprano and tenor up, alto and bass down). I've seen the
SATB score
example, but I also want to separate the VERSE music and lyrics from

Re: Polyphony and multiple voice contexts
I appreciate your frustration, and unfortunately don't have an answer. I've only been working with lilypond for a week! But, a number of my questions on vocal scores have gone unanswered. This seems to indicate to me that the manual need some revision, as a lot of people do seem to be doing vocal work! I'd be happy to help with the manual once i know what I'm doing.:-DIn the meantime, though, please let me know if you find a solution!Not much help, but when I run your full file, I get:Processing `bindhands.ly'Parsing...Interpreting music...

I'm using version 2.6.4-5 for Windows. I use Lilypond for engraving congregational hymns. Almost all the songs are in 4-parts, and have the 3 verses followed by a single chorus. All the lyrics should appear between the staves. I want the flags on the staff to face opposite directions (soprano and tenor up, alto and bass down). I've seen the SATB score example, but I also want to separate the VERSE music and lyrics from the CHORUS music and lyrics. The following solution almost works, but no lyrics appear.

Tripled triplets
Hi
Is it possible to create this:
three 16. note triplets
\time 2/3 { hh hh hh}16
\time 2/3 { hh hh hh}16
\time 2/3 { hh hh hh}16
How do i triple these? So they will be within
2/4???
\time 2/3 {
\time 2/3 { hh hh hh}16
\time 2/3 { hh hh hh}16
\time 2/3 { hh hh hh}16
}
This was my only idea.
Is there a solution to my problem?

4-voice, 3-staff score with 2 lines of lyrics
Hi Lilypond people,
I have been trying this stuff to render well since days, digging deeper
and deeper into the docs, but without success. Attached is an extract to
show my progress and to get help.
The beginning is a 7-measure intro (played on piano), the last measure
shown to the choir. The problem is: I can not get the ABCDEFGH lyrics
line rendered, which is going to be the lyrics for both soprano and alt.
(Tenor and bass has the same, abcdefgh lyrics, which is rendered
right.) I enclosed those into a \book because there are going to be some
unisono parts as well, which are a snap.
I think the whole problem is that I have single staff poliphony (soprano
and alt on the same staff, but not as chords) versus only one line of
lyrics.
So please help me: what should I write into that .ly to have it rendered
as it should?

Wrong eps file with lily 2.6.3
Hello, I have problems with generting an eps file (small music fragments). Usually, after generating the ps file using lilypond, I made the eps file from the ps using eps2epsi program and the eps file was correct. With the lilypond version 2.4.5 everything worked fine. But I have also installed the 2.6.3 version of lilypond. When I process the *.ly file with the newer lilypond, it creates a ps file, from which I can't generate a correct eps file. The bounding box is incorrect (the notes are beyond the box). Changing the box manually doesn't have any effect either. When I switch to lily 2.4.5, everything works fine again. Does anyone know why the 2.4.5 lilypond creates diifferent *.ps files from the 2.6.3 lilypond? Why I can't use the ps2epsi with lily 2.6.3? I've tried also ps2eps programm, it creates also wrong files (bad bounding box).

This was my only idea.
Is there a solution to my problem?
Try:
\times 2/3 {
\times 2/3 {
c'16
c'16
c'16
}
\times 2/3 {
c'16
c'16
c'16
}
\times 2/3 {
c'16
c'16
c'16
}
}
Which take the space of one measure in 2/8. Maybe for 2/4 you would prefer:
\times 2/3 {
\times 2/3 {
c'8
c'8
c'8
}
\times 2/3 {
c'8
c'8
c'8
}
\times 2/3 {
c'8
c'8
c'8
}
}
Note that, with an s,
\times q/p { }
gives you prolation but that, without an s,
\time m/n
gives you a time signature.

Finding note coordinates in output
Is there a way to find out what the coordinates are of notes in scores generated by Lilypond? For instance, is there a way to get the data needed to generate an image map to go with a PNG file and allow notes to be clicked on?

Re: 2 conversion problems 2.4.6-2.6.3
Quoting Gilles [EMAIL PROTECTED] from ml.lilypond.users: :For Linux: gucharmap Yes, but since lilypond does not understand the Unicode escape syntax (e.g. \u2014 for EM DASH) produced by gucharmap, this is rather useless.
