Re: Printing tempo marks on every part
By default, rehearsal marks will only appear above the top stave of each score line. If you want it to appear over more staves, you just include the corresponding engraver into the Staff contexts where you want the marks, see http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2006-04/msg00062.html for an example. This has really nothing to do with filtering out information using \tag or whatever, which has been the main focus of this thread. /Mats David A. Greene wrote: David A. Greene wrote: parts. For example, in an SATB score, the rehearsal letters should appear in all parts but I only want dynamics displayed in one part (say, the alto) to keep clutter down. Slight correction. One would like the rehearsal letters to appear on one of either the soprano or alto parts and one of the tenor or bass parts along with any descant part. -Dave ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user -- = Mats Bengtsson Signal Processing Signals, Sensors and Systems Royal Institute of Technology SE-100 44 STOCKHOLM Sweden Phone: (+46) 8 790 8463 Fax: (+46) 8 790 7260 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] WWW: http://www.s3.kth.se/~mabe = ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Markup support for tables?
The following solution gives the alignment, the backside is that you
have to
input the table entries column by column instead of row by row:
\markup{\column{A DD GGG} \column {B EE HHH} \column {C FF III}}

Nope -- and I would (will) do the same thing again, all other things being equal!

Re: Tag Schmag
Whenever I cant get an answer from the fine manual (and I do mean fine, it is a good manual for most things). My next course is to go get the regression file or test input file for what I'm trying to understand, usually that solves the problem or at least points me to something I can begin to try out. If I'm still at a loss, I search LSR but rarely do I find an answer there. Next I search the list. By the time I'm asking a question, I know i've been stumped and need an expert. The regression files are a goldmine, I hope that work continues to expand.

Re: Embedded Tex plugin for MS Word
I've been outputting my passages from lilypond to PNG, then just including the PNG files in the Word document via a graphic link. To get the PNG dimensions correct I've added "bogus" small paper form sizes to my system print server, then I specify those paper sizes in the LP code that generates that snippet. Some paper sizes are like 1 inch high by 3 inch wide. In Word if you link to the graphics instead of embedding them then they will always be "up to date", then you can re-run the LP jobs and have your Word document automatically be correct. As long as LP is depositing the updated graphics to the expected locations of the graphics in the Word document.

Re: Capo chords
I'm a guitarist, usually capo usage is only suggested in a score but is not mandatory. Something at the beginning like "capo 3rd fret". The chord names should always reflect what is actually sounded for the key written, in case somebody who does not own a capo also wants to play your song. If I saw C(A) in a score I would probably play an A minor chord or a C6 chord, it would never dawn on me that A meant something other than A, or I may confusedly play a polychord of C over A. I know this does not answer your question though. But the easy way to get your "dual named" chords to come out is with the chord name exceptions list. This list allows you to traslate the default generated markup of a chord name into anything you want, the root names will still participate in transposition and you can code the (A-form) tags into the exception rule and those wont transpose (they would be treated similar to m7 or m7b5, etc). Search this archive for how to set up a chord names exception list and use it in your code, there is a good example out here (search for jazzychords). If you cant find it then mail me offline and I'll send you some sample code when I get home. If you do use this notation I would definitely include an explanation on the page.

Hi all, I hope I'm not missing something obvious, but I couldn't see anything on this in either the archives or the documentation I'm notating music with a melody and guitar chords to be played with a capo on the guitar, and I'd like to include two chord names at each point: the actual chord and the chord shape played, for example "C (A)" for a piece played with a capo on the guitar at the 3rd fret (meaning the shape used is A major, but the chord sounded is C major, because the guitar is transposed up 3 semitones by the capo). By using ChordNames and \transpose I can include *either* of these, but I can't find a way to include both (putting in a second ChordNames environment leads to the software trying to work out a chord that's a combination of the transposed and untransposed notes!). I suppose I could hack it with manual text, but that would be icky. I'm using Lilypond 2.2.6, but I'd be happy to upgrade if there's a solution in a later version. Any suggestions? If this isn't a currently available feature, I'd suggest it would be a useful thing to implement, as capo chords are very common in popular music books. Thanks for your time, Tim =-= ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Repeat Alternatives w/o Repeat Bar
I might be tempted to pitch in some helper money to get DC and DS Al Coda functionality that can generate the marks and have the option to insert whitespace in front of a coda passage, recognize the flow for midi, error out if the targetcoda, tocoda or targetsegno are missing, etc. IOW possibly add "\DCAlCoda" and "\DSAlCoda" functions that react to the presence of \targetSegno and \targetCoda and \toCoda elsewhere in the piece. Or maybe use "named" \targetSegno, \toCoda and \targetCoda commands that the \DCAlCoda and \DSAlCoda functions could refer to, for cases where a piece has multiple coda jumps. Right now I am doing all this with \mark commands as markup in conjuction with volta alternatives, I'm using \stopStaff and \startStaff to insert the whitespace and force re-appearance of the clef, key, time for the coda passage. None of it responds to midi flow of course, but it looks nice. Functionalizing this I think would be a popular enhancement, since so much music makes heavy use DC or DS al coda. I would say fully 90% of the pieces I notate use DC or DS Al Coda. Paul Scott-3 wrote: > > David A. Greene wrote: >> Paul Scott wrote: >>> David A.

Re: polyphony & placement of accidentals
Hi JMarc
Thanks for this inventive solution!
As you state yourself, the beaming gets confused and I am afraid of looking
for a solution to that problem...
I can live with the way it looks now, I just thought you could make it more
readable.

Subject: polyphony & placement of accidentals
Hi
I've found a trick to move the bes left, and the c right.
\context Voice="oben" {
\stemUp
\clef "G"
\key f \major
\time 3/8
g 8
c '' 16
b ' 16
\cadenzaOn
s32 c '' 8 % a space before the c, which moves it on the right
}
\\
\context Voice="unten" {
\stemDown
g 8
bes ' 8
\cadenzaOn
bes ' 8 s32 %a space after the c, which moves it on the left
}
I often use the \cadenzaOn to insert spaces with s to move notes. Maybe
someone will find something
more "élégant" !
I've run lily on this trick, and it appears that beaming has changed and
is not perfect : I think
you'll find something to solve this pb !

See the snippet below.
\score {

Version 2.8.6 under WinXP Is there any way to rotate a markup (specifically an instrument name) by 90 degrees? Sorry if this is a double posting (I don't think it is) Many thanks, Mark ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Only now I discovered the paper "Standard Music Notation Practice" edited by
the Music Publisher Association where they recommend to do it like Lilypond
does - i.e. to align the stems of notes with opposite stems and an interval of
a second.
However, what I am complaining about is not the appearance of the 3rd 8th of
this measure. I just have the feeling that the readability of this measure is
not optimal since the flat sign of the last "bes" seems to be nearer to the
preceding 16th than to the note it belongs to.
Sorry to have bothered you!

Hi David,
you can have a look at all possible events here:

dynamic-event crescendo-event decrescendo-event % Dynamics
tie-event slur-event phrasing-slur-event % ties, slurs
