Re: Bar numbers collision
At http://lilypond.org/bugs/v2.8/, you can find a list of other open bugs that were not considered serious enough to stop the release of 2.8. If you consider this specific bug serious enough to sponsor a correction, see http://lilypond-design.com/sponsor/ for more information. /Mats Enrico Licini wrote: Exactly which bug are you refering to? If you mean that bar numbers collide with the bracket of a StaffGroup, then that bug has existed for years and there is a well-known workaround. /Mats Yes, I am referring to this bug. I think it is not a good idea to keep a bug for years and provide only a workaround instead of fixing it. If necessary, I would sponsor this correction...

Fonts not scaled when changing font tree
When I change the defaults like in the following example (myStaffSize...), the fonts are not scaled to staffsize. When I delete the myStaffSize part it works. Is this a bug or did I make a mistake?

Repeats, coda information and lyrics that jump
I have been messing about with some music for about an hour, and I managed to put in a coda symbol, though I am unsure of how to drop in the Last time to coda text on the score. I assume it is embedded in the code for the notes? What command do I use? Repeats - I can get a repeat sign, but when I do, it messes up my 6/8 time, and forces it back to common time, I know I must be doing something wrong, but despite a lot of fiddling around, and reading the tips on the web, I'm ready for a definite answer. Does the volta command go into the { } with the notes, or outside them? Lyrics - I decided to put my lyrics onto the score, and pencil in the repeats and coda information so my son could have his music, but when I typed them in, they skipped three bars of music, and won't align. I have put lyrics in successfully in the past, and I don't think I am doing anything different, but it just won't put them under these three bars. Most peculiar.

Re: Repeats, coda information and lyrics that jump
It's much easier to answer your questions if you include some examples of the code you have tried. If possible, try to reduce your examples in size to a few lines of code that still illustrate the problem you are facing. If you (and we) are lucky, you might even find the solution while doing it. /Mats Melanie Grouse wrote: I have been messing about with some music for about an hour, and I managed to put in a coda symbol, though I am unsure of how to drop in the Last time to coda text on the score.

Re: LilyPond and OpenDocument
I tried this myself last night (in Linux) - no luck.

Re: LilyPond and OpenDocument
I GOT IT I am happy to inform you, that I found a way importing Lilypond into Opendocument: Import the Lilypond ps file in Scribus. Export it as eps file. Import the eps file in OpenOffice! It is not the direct way, but you will get the best resolution and the possibility to resize the image however you like. I don't know why Openoffice has problems with the eps file that is created with lilypond's eps backend! Stefan I managed to Am Donnerstag, 4.

convert-ly on windows without cygwin
Hi! I've installed lilypond v2.8 on windows xp. It is not a cygwin version. I must be stupid, but I cannot find how to run convert-ly in my case!?!

Re: Object hierarchy in LilyPond?

Could someone please prepare series of charts starting at the reasonable abstract level and ending with hierarchy of all LilyPond object, contexts and however tha various LilyPond parts are named? I don't understand. Do you want to see, for each grob type, which tweakable grob properties it has?

Working on it. From a structural point of view, it looks like a cleaner way of doing things. You might even add the syllables of lyrics to the music stream and do away with the current implementation. The implementation of lyricsto is one of the things that msuic streams happen to clean up; however, large parts of the current implementation are kept unchanged. -- Erik ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
