Re: Bar numbers collision

2006-05-04 Thread Mats Bengtsson

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.

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

2006-05-04 Thread Thomas Scharkowski
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?

Windows XP
LilyPond 2.8.1

Code:

--
\version 2.7.40

#(set-global-staff-size 26)
#(ly:set-option 'point-and-click #f)

\header {
title = Title
composer = Composer
}


Melody =\context Voice = Melody {
\relative c'' {
g4 a b g |
}
}

SongStaff = \context Staff
{
\Melody
}

Text =  \lyricsto Melody  \new Lyrics  {
This is my song.

\score {

Repeats, coda information and lyrics that jump

2006-05-04 Thread Melanie Grouse
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

2006-05-04 Thread Mats Bengtsson

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.

Re: LilyPond and OpenDocument

2006-05-04 Thread Colin Wilding


I tried this myself last night (in Linux) - no luck.  Lilypond created an
SVG file:  Inkscape opened it but displayed only the staff lines and a few
other bits;  OpenOffice tried to open it but failed with a 'general
input/output error'.  I suspect there is a problem with fonts but I couldn't
be sure.

in principle, though, this approach ought to work.

Re: LilyPond and OpenDocument

2006-05-04 Thread Stefan Hackl
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!

convert-ly on windows without cygwin

2006-05-04 Thread Eddy-14

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!?! I've
read that a DOS prompt is not the right way, and a simple or double click on
it does not allow me to inform it which file I want to convert.

Re: Object hierarchy in LilyPond?

 Hello,

 I'm trying to figure out an overall object hierarchy of LilyPond. The
 only way I've discovered so far is to traverse programmers guide and
 follow links. But this is very tedious, since if I want to get something
 done in non-default way, this approach is very confusing.

 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? Or do you want to create a graph that shows which 
grobs that belong to which interfaces?

You might want to take a look at the source code of OOoLaTeX (http:// 
ooolatex.sourceforge.net/).  It's an OpenOffice.org extension that  
lets you add LaTeX expressions to your documents; it converts them on- 
the-fly to EMF (or another appropriate format) and lets you play with  
some of the settings.  It supports EPS, I think, so it might not be  
impossible to hack it to do something similar for LilyPond.

 That's a great document! I've read about half of it now and it does a
 very good job to explain to me how LilyPond works. And seeing the

 Masters Degree! Well Done!

Thanks!

 Off topic, but are your music streams implemented in the current 2.9
 branch? 

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.
