Suggestion: Possible extension to tablature support

2005-12-30 Thread David E. Nelson
I am not sure if you have discussed this before, but why not extend tablature support in LilyPond by allowing the user to input symbols for how strings should be played, such as hammer-ons, bends, slides, etc.  This could be done by implementing commands that the engine would only pay attention to in a "TabStaff" context, such as adding, say, "\tabOrnament" after a note to indicate "add the quoted string that follows onto this note in the tab staff."For example:c' \tabOrnament "aa"   % Add "aa" after the fret number for this note in the tab staff Harmonics can also be included in tablature, so the command, say, "\tabHarmonic" after a note would enclose that note's fret number in angle brackets.  Also, grace notes can be denoted in tab by enclosing their fret numbers in round parentheses.  This would occur if a \grace command was encountered in a TabStaff context.If you want more info on annotated tab, here's a

This is odd; at the very least it should spit out a "segfault" or 
something.


  That's why I asked the question.  I'll try to go back and delete the 
added material until it will compile and start from there.


Don't delete it; just comment it out.  :)

Please correct me if I misunderstand.


\repeat has no effect on midi, unless you use \unfoldRepeats (or 
something like that).


Actually, not using \repeat is the cause of the problem here.  You can 
only have one \bar command on each bar line.  So lilypond sees the \bar 
":|" command at the end of one line, but that gets overwritten by the 
\bar"|:" command for the start of the next bar (which is still the same 
barline).


Using \repeat avoids this problem; see below.  (excerpt)

...
 \time 4/4
 #(set-global-staff-size 20)

\repeat volta 2 {
\bar "|:"
4^\markup {"#1"}   
 } \break
 \repeat volta 2{
 \times 2/3 {c8^\markup {"#2"} c' e} \times 2/3 {e, c' e} 
\times 2/3 {g, c e}

 \times 2/3 {c, c' e} \times 2/3 {b, d' f} \times 2/3 {d, d' f}
 \times 2/3 {g, d' f} \times 2/3 {b,, d' f}
 } \break
...

I only did two lines; you can fix the other lines in a similar way.  
Note that you still need an explicit \bar "|:" at the beginning of the 
piece.


BTW, this email was sent to the correct addresses.  :)

Cheers,

If you've updated your version of lilypond, did you run convert-ly ?
If not, what did you change last?  You must have made some change 
between the last time you compiled it and when it stopped compiling.
Are there any error messages displayed?  If there's any line numbers 
mentioned, double-check the area around those lines -- sometimes the 
actual error occurs a few lines away from the reported problem.



Secondly
I just entered a series of 2 measure exercises (guitar/Giuliani) with 
\bar "|:" at the beginning and \bar ":|" at the end of each two bars 
but the end repeat does not show.



Why not use \repeat ?  Anyway, if it's just a one-line example that 
doesn't display a bar line, please send the example to the list.

OK.

So summary: use \override for overriding almost all grob properties;
use \overrideProperty only for properties belonging to those few grobs
like Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn that are created *prior to* normal
\override processing.

Thanks for the explanation.

Figured bass extender line problem possible workaround

2005-12-30 Thread liang seng
Hi, I'm trying to find a workaround to the extender line problem in figured 
bass in Lilypond development series 2.7.2x. Here is the file:


\version "2.7.23"
\header {
}
<<
\relative { c c c c \break c c c c  }
\context FiguredBass \figuremode { \set useBassFigureExtenders = ##t \set 
figuredBassCenterContinuations = ##f

\set figuredBassAlterationDirection = #1 \set figuredBassPlusDirection = #1
<10 3>4. <10 3>8 <6+ 4>4. <6+ 4>8
<10 3++>4. <10 3++>8 <6+ 4->4.  <6+ 4->8 } >>

In the attached file figbass.pdf, the extender line problem is highlighted 
in the 1st bar. As you can see, the extender lines in the 1st bar are not 
horizontally aligned. This appears when there is 1. A double digit figure 
with a single digit figure and 2. A figure with a right sided accidental 
with a figure without accidentals.
In trying to find a workaround, I have tried to add right sided accidentals 
to the unaffected figures so that the right sided horizontal alignment of 
the figures as well as the resulting extender lines are more or less aligned 
properly (bar 2). However, the only problem here is how to make those extra 
accidentals (the double sharp in the first figure and the flat in the 
second) disappear. The problem with overriding the transparency of the 
figures is that the entire figure with the accidental will disappear instead 
of only the accidental. I also tried using the BassFigureContinuation object 
to move the individual extender line but I can't since it moved the entire 
double extender line. Any ideas on how to make the individual figure 
accidentals disappear without affecting the main figures?

Ah. True.

FWIW, I really like \new Score { ... } and somehow missed it when I
first learning the input sytax! Guess this is why it's a good idea to
go back and reread the manual (which just keeps getting better, much
like the code itself, imo).

What controls figured bass?

2005-12-30 Thread liang seng
Hi, I would like to know for the development series of Lilypond (2.7.2x), 
the figured bass is controlled by which grob?
Fundamentally, since figured basses are markups as the distance between them 
and the staff is controlled by a markup command (baseline-skip), are they 
controlled by TextScript?
On the otherhand, are they controlled by the objects listed in the program 
reference in the Figured Bass section of the manual?

Thank you.

Thanks... I gave it a try... it kinda works.. but works better when I make
the lyrics a little smaller.

how much to sponser the addition of a half-stop sign (similar to the 
mathematical circled plus) to the feta font? 


I charge 45 eur for that.

or is it just easier to try 
to use a text markup to put it in?


that's another possibility, something like

  \markup { \circle \musicglyph #"scripts.stopped"  }

rests missing

2005-12-30 Thread Rob
Hi,

Since a few days I use version 2.6.3. from a debian package (Kubuntu)

I ran in the following two problems.

1)

\override MultiMeasureRest #'expand-limit = 1
\set Score.skipBars = ##t
R1*4

Result:
1 single rest-measure with the number 4 written above.

When I change to

R1*6 (or 7 or ...)
There is a 6 (or7 or...) written above

but:
R1*5  gives no a 5 written above it; in fact here is nothing!

2)

A more or less identical problem is shown in \time

when I write
\time 2/4 or 6/8
in the Staff it is shown as 2/4 and 6/8

In
\time 3/4 only the "4" is shown in it's proper place,
which is the lower part of the Staff
but  
in stead of a "3" above it there is a blank place


What can I do about it?

Rob
