does musicglyph work?

2005-11-16 Thread Art Hixson
I have tried every construction I can think of for musicglyph.  I get 
the note but not the fermata (or any other symbol).  This snippet is 
copied straight from the documentation.  What am I missing?


d'4^\markup { \musicglyph  #"scripts-ufermata"  }

I want to use the markup form with the hope of repositioning the fermata.

RE: pango problem with lilypond 2.7

2005-11-16 Thread Michael Porcaro
I forgot to reply all:

OS: CentOS 3.5 i686
256 megs of ram
1024MB RAM Burstable
python version 2.2.3, working correctly (should I install a newer
version?)

I am using wikitex to process this.  Although, the error I get surely is
this, and to me, doesn't really indicate an error with python, but
something wrong with pango:

Calculating page breaks...lilypond: relocation error: lilypond:
undefined symbol: pango_fc_font_get_type

lilypond 2.2.6 worked well (after about a month of trying to install it,
about to give up)

No other lilypond will install on my server.  2.4 gives me segmentation
faults.  2.5 and 2.6 keeps complaining about a missing pango, when it is
clearly installed.  At least 2.7 recognizes pango, I just get the weird
error I mentioned above.

Re: Lyrics: many syllables -> one note?

2005-11-16 Thread David Rogers

Hi

After a preliminary fix for my problem with lyrics chanted to a  
single note (thank you, Mats and Arthur), and some extremely  
determined messing around, I have discovered:

__

\version "2.6.0"
\relative c'' {\key f \major \set Score.timing = ##f
c1 f,4 bes a \bar "|" g e f8 e f1}
\addlyrics {\once \override LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #-1 "All  
these words are placed properly under one note," while these ones are  
set nor -- mal -- ly. }


___

Placing the prefix \once \override LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #-1
before a lyric word causes Lilypond to left-align that lyric with its  
note. Change the #-1 to a #1 and it will be right-aligned; use #0 for  
centred (which is the default). #-0.8 is most of the way to being  
left-aligned, etc. Hope this helps someone.

pango problem with lilypond 2.7

Hi,

 

I keep getting this error, when installing the latest
version of lilypond:

This is the only version that seems to “almost”
work on my server (2.7.16).  I CAN
get 2.2.6 to work, however, it is old, and I would like to try to get the newer
version to work before resorting to the older version.

 

Any help with the problem I mentioned?  Thanks!

If you have so many words that you need a line break in the middle  
of the
pseudo-chant, you would need some more advanced tricks, such as  
connecting

them to a voice with invisible notes.



Thank you Mats. This works, in a way - but then the note is centred  
over the line of lyrics. I suppose that may be correct for an  
ordinary single syllable, but in a chant it means the singer can't  
see his note until half the words are over.
However, I've successfully used invisible notes for the extra words.  
Thanks to you for that tip as well.

If i write unfold, it generates 20 bars in the layout, and thats not what i

Until now I have created 2 files, a layout file, and a midibut isn´t it 
possible to do it in one file?

of course, strictly speaking, you need to add a \transpose command to the 
standard notation staff - like this:


guitar = {
\set Staff.instrument = #"Guitar"
\set Staff.midiIntrument = "electric guitar (jazz)"
\clef treble
\transpose c c'
\context Staff << \gtr >>
}

...plus you need to change the clef to a treble cleff with an "8" beneath 
the loop - but I haven't found that clef yet.

It seems that the best you can do is something like:

\version "2.6.0"

\score{

\relative c'' {
 \time 4/4
\repeat volta 2 {
 \partial 4 d4 |
   e8 d e d e d e d |
 }
 \alternative {
   { f2. }
   { \set Timing.measurePosition = #(ly:make-moment 0 4) f8 e f e f e f 
g | }

 }
}
}

which gets rid of the warning and prints all the automatic beams
correctly.

In the 3rd attached file, when "\unfoldRepeats" is put back in,
warnings show up:
 


That's becaue you don't end the cadenza within the repeat. Repeat unfolding works 
in principle by copy&paste, so you will have two \cadenzaOn:s followed by two 
cadenzaOff:s in your example; this may give unexpected results.

   



Well...  The authoritative (Han-Wen) answer seems to indicate that there is
currently no way to improve the notation and get rid of the warnings.

I would like to write classical guitar music and am looking for a way to 
include a vertical line spanning either the complete staff or parts of it, to

Is there any way?

just move it inside, like in the following example.

The solution for the bar line only works well with one line of

have to repeat the \new ChordNames and all the engravers?  I found if 
I didn't do this, then I got a staff and the chords were notes...

Re: accidentals and clef changes

2005-11-16 Thread Mats Bengtsson

Now I realize what you mean, sorry. I forward it to bug-lilypond as a bug
report/feature request. As a musician, I completely agree that this should
be done for clarity, still I have seen many printed scores that do not print
out the additional accidentals.
A possible workaround for you is to do
   \clef bass \set Staff.localKeySignature = #'()
or maybe even define a \myclef function that does both in a single call.

/Mats

I checked the key signature page but it doesn't seem to answer my 
problem.  Maybe I should have explained better.  When I say the 
accidentals should be reset after a key change, I mean the first bar 
in this example should, by default look exactly like the second:


=

\version "2.7.12"
\new Staff \relative c' {
\clef treble
cis dis fis
\clef bass
%% Accidentals are not reset for this chord

\clef treble
cis dis fis
\clef bass

}

\layout {raggedright = ##t}



I would consider it a bug that lilypond doesn't do this by default.

I totally agree... Hence my comment about installing it on a hard disk; 
booting on the CD is unreasonable beyond demoware...


And it wasn't so much that  the initial cost was so much but that 
between very slow and mostly inadequate support (the forums last I 
checked and that was a while ago- I basically gave up on it- were of 
not much use and none of the advise I got worked.) and then that the 
software was integrated but not with any of the hardware so just to 
start it took forever each time.


I needed support only once, and the answer was prompt and adequate. But 
I might have been just lucky...

Re: Lyrics: many syllables -> one note?

2005-11-16 Thread Mats Bengtsson
The easiest is just to put all the words together within double quotes, 
so LilyPond

handles them as a single syllable:

\lyricmode{ "This sentence is handled like a single syllable" This one 
is not! }


If you have so many words that you need a line break in the middle of the
pseudo-chant, you would need some more advanced tricks, such as connecting
them to a voice with invisible notes.

I have searched the documentation as well as I can, and find nothing

do I format my lyrics to make this happen?

Re: Undefined control sequence. \embeddedps

If you search the mailing lists, you will find emails from several people
who have installed LilyPond of FreeBSD. Hopefully you can find some
useful hints there.

Please always keep the discussion on the mailing list, for the
benefit of yourself since you get access to the collected
expertise on the list and for the benefit of others who experience
similar problems. Feel free to quote my answer below if you wish.

Why not try the installation package at www.lilypond.org which is
intended to work on almost any Linux system and which contains its
own ghostscript, renamed to avoid the problems you describe, if I remember
correctly.

There is an added difficulty--this system is FreeBSD, not Linux.

Re: Newbie, lyrics and vertical spacing.

2005-11-16 Thread Mats Bengtsson

The correct syntax is \new Staff \with {...} ...
I recommend you to take a look at the corresponding part of
the manual for more information, see "9.1.3 Modifying context
plug-ins"

If you only want larger spacing between the score lines, you should
instead look at section "Vertical Spacing" and read about
betweensystemspacing. Note that you can also set the extent of each
separate Staff by setting the property like
\new Staff with {minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-6 . 6 ) } {
%The actual music
}

   



I did this:
\new StaffGroup <<
  \new Staff with { minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-6 . 6 ) } \violinouno
  \new Staff with { minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-6 . 6 ) } \violinodue
  \new Staff with { minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-6 . 6 ) } \viola
  \new Staff with { minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-6 . 6 ) } \violoncello
 



But then I get:
gaudeamus.ly:45:14: error: syntax error, unexpected STRING
  \new Staff
 with { minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-6 . 6 ) } \violinouno
gaudeamus.ly:34:0: error: errors found, ignoring music expression

I'm using lilypond 2.6.3

 


It seems that the minimumVerticalExtent redefined by
the lyrics gets summed to the global minimumVerticalExtent I set,
making a huge space (only for staves with lyrics, the other are ok).


 


Maybe there's a misunderstanding here since you say "global". You make the
setting for every Staff context (i.e. for every stave) in the score, so
in that sense
it's "global", but it doesn't apply to any other kind of contexts.
   



I set the minimumVerticalExtent in the \layout block:
\layout {
 indent = 2.0\cm
 \context {
  \Staff minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-6 . 6 )
 }
}

Thanks,
Rodolfo
