RE: Change Chord Name Font Size
Thank you Mats.
\override ChordName #'font-size = #6
Worked fine.
I also found its reference in the lilypond program-reference under the
ChorName object.
I now have a problem of the padding/space between the Chord names staves
which is the space seperating the Chord names the staves above below
them.
I tried
\override ChordName #'padding = #-1
\override ChordName #'bound-padding = #-1
But both didn't work.
Thank you.
But a question arises which is:

As Mats said, I tried the \property lines, but it gave error in
lilypond 2.6.
Isn't there an easier way to find what how to change the chord font
size than to get an old version of lilypond, then convert to to 2.6
especially that I'm working on Windows I didn't find an already
compiled binary of lilypond 2.0 or less for Windows?
Thank you.

By default, LilyPond should not reserve any space for a lyrics line

your example to work exactly as you desire. (The exception to what

in http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2005-08/msg00085.html).
I'm using the latest LilyPond, v2.7.38. I tried the suggestion made in
the post you reference (and also made by Geoff), but it seems to have
made no difference. Geoff's \layout trick for the word spacing seems to
do the trick on that issue, though.
I'm appending the score in full, and I'll try to attach the output so
you can see what's up..

work for the `StaffGroup' context? I want a score layout like this
(each horizontal line represents a staff):
/

I could also insert invisible staves, but...

System spacing
Folks,
I have a score in which the first two systems each have 3 verses (lines of
text) underneath, and the next three systems are the chorus and have only one
line. Each system is one line of music.
I saw that there is some control over the inter-system spacing, but it is not
clear to me how to modify the spacing of the chorus such that it the chorus
lines only take up the space required, rather than the same space that the
verses do...
That is, I have now:
- page -

And I want:

Re: remove Timing_engraver question
Did you look at the section 9.1.3 Modifying context plug-ins?
It includes an example for removing exactly the same engraver.
However, if you want to remove the time signature on all staves, I
really recommend to method described in Sect. 9.1.5 Changing context
default settings instead, which changes all Staff
contexts in the score with a single setting.

But I don't really understand where should I put it in my code (attached).

Re: Synchronizing staves with grace notes
What LilyPond version do you use? I'm afraid you have hit a bug in
version 2.6. If you upgrade to the latest development version
it seems to work much better. Still, you might need to insert
an invisible grace note in the left hand part to get the bar lines
correct, see the comment at the end of Sect. Grace notes. The
following example works well in version
2.7:
\version 2.7.36
\relative c''
\new Staff { \time 3/8 { des16..-[ bes64] ges8[ f] }\\
{ \stemUp \grace { des8[~ ges bes] } \stemNeutral des,4_\( d8\) }
}
\new Staff { \time 3/8
\grace s4. \times 4/6 { bes32[ des ges bes ges des] } \times 4/6 {
bes[ des ges bes ges des] } \times 4/6 { b[ d f as f d] }}

I'm having some trouble with synchronizing the upper and lower stave
in a piano score where I have some grace notes and polyhony in the
right hand.
I need to tie a des in the grace notes to the normal des-note
following the grace notes and have finally managed to do that.
However, to synchronize the two voices in the right hand, I had to
insert hidden grace notes in the upper voice. I would prefer the
first of the left hand notes to be synchronized with the des4 in the
lower voice in the right hand. But it synchronizes automatically with
the first of the grace notes. Is there a way to obtain what I want?
I don't know how much code to attach. Hope this is enough (only 1
bar)... The first note in the right hand is des'' (in both voices).
The score is in 3/8.
Right hand:
{ \hideNotes \grace { des8 des des } \unHideNotes \stemUp des16..-[
bes64] ges8[ f] }\\
{ \stemUp \grace { des8[~ ges bes] } \stemDown des,4_\( d8\) }

How do you expect LilyPond to realize if your two alternatives are

For situations like these, read the section on Manual repeat commands

indicate where melody continues
Hi,I'm trying to create a sheet where there are at times two voices (but mostly one) on one staff and occasionally it is not obvious which one is the melody and which is the second voice, so I'd like to have some kind of indication where the melody continues, (like an arrow or glissando-ish line or something similar)
I have essentially the followingmelody = \relative c' {c d g b % let's say I want an indication here between d and g}second = \relative c' {e f e f}and \score {\context Staff = full
\context Voice = melody {\melody\second}}I tried using a \glissando (and it would have been good enough if it only worked), but inevitably the line went from the d in the melody to the e in the second voice :( , and the same problem also with phrasing slurs.
Now, this is more or less the first song I'm typesetting so I'm a newbie, so hopefully there is something simple I've overlooked. In that case I'd appreciate a pointer to where to start to RTFM ;)regards,
Simon

A few comments:
LaTeX margins for lilypond-book:
Packages work just fine. This is what I use for all my lilypond-book
scores
\documentclass[12pt,letterpaper]{book}
\usepackage[lmargin=15mm,rmargin=15mm,tmargin=10mm,bmargin=5mm,nofoot,no
head]{geometry}
Make sure you run the texsetup or texconfig and set the dvips
paper
size to letterpaper. For some reason it defaults to A4 -- even
when
you specify letterpaper in your .latex (or .lytex) file. :(
Another point regarding this is that the 'something important' that you
are missing is that only one of evensidemargin and oddsidemargin are
used on any one page. They refer to the outside margin of even and odd
pages in a book respectively. The inside margin does not need to be
specified as it is determined by the other lengths. A diagram that
explains this is in Lampart's book as well as on page 113 of the 'Not
So Short Introduction to LaTeX 2e':
www.ctan.org/tex-archive/info/lshort/english/lshort.pdf
Having said that, I am having problems myself with the margins (I have
already asked a question about it) and Graham's suggestion is probably
better, although I don't have the geometry package installed.
Hope this helps,
Joe

Re: Problem with \textwidth and lilypond-book
This is a known problem in version 2.6.x, see the mailing
list archives for workarounds.

I am trying to change them margins in a document that I run through

the second line of the music is put, for some reason, to the right of
the first line and not below. If I remove
'\setlength{\textwidth}{160mm}' then it appears correctly (except that
the margins are not how I want them). Can anyone suggest what might be
the problem? I am using version 2.6.3.
Thanks,

Hi Werner,
Would the line-break-system-details attribute of the
NonMusicalPaperColumn abstract grob be helpful? You have to set by
hand for each new system, but the systems stay *exactly* where you put
them vertically.
There's a bit in the NEWS section that talks about positioning
individual systems manually, with this sample usage:
\overrideProperty
#Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn
#'line-break-system-details
#'((Y-offset . 24.5)
(X-offset . -7.5))
HTH.

Other Music Fonts
Is it possible to use other types of music fonts in Lilypond? I ask this because I like some of the fonts packaged with Finale NotePad 2005a, but I'm not sure how I could use it.

Re: vertical spacing of StaffGroup
[CVS 2006-03-17] What must I do to make \override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-10 . 10) work for the `StaffGroup' context? I want a score layout like this (each horizontal line represents a staff): You can't, technically: StaffGroup is just a bunch of staves with a bracket in front, and spanning bar lines. This is a pity, IMHO. Graham, this should be probably documented... I could fiddle with VerticalAxisGroup of single staff lines, but... I could also insert invisible staves, but... If you're inserting something invisible, I'd recommend a Lyrics context. You have to make sure it's not hara-kiri'd though. Will give it a try, thanks. A related problem which I consider as very important is the introduction of stretching vertical space as used in TeX: \vspace 3em plus 10pt minus 10pt This is something for the TODO file -- BTW, it seems that there isn't a TODO file in lilypond... On the other hand, page-layout-twopass.ly, which probably can do something similar already, appears to be broken: The output file page-layout-twopass-page-layout.ly is always empty. Or am I missing something? The documentation is, hmm, sparse... Werner ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
