Re: -b eps option (was RE: OOolilypond and openoffice 2.1)
I would recommend you to first make sure that the lilypond command works correctly when you run in from a command prompt. Once you have that working, you could integrate it with OOolilypond.

OOolilypond and openoffice 2.1
please excuse my ignorance, but are the authors of the lilypond plug-in for openoffice monitoring this list? i visited http://ooolilypond.sourceforge.net/ but i couldn't find the names of the developers or how to contact them. i wanted to report that i couldn't make the plug-in work with openoffice 2.1 on linux (gentoo). the plug-in installs and opens its window, but it fails to compile any code, with this message: lilypond: /usr/lib/openoffice/program/libstdc++.so.6: version 'CXXABI_1.3.1' not found (required by lilypond) (btw, i'm using lilypond 2.10.19) according to the web site, the plug-in was tested with OO 2.0.2, and later "It is supposed to work an all Unix like operating systems with OpenOffice.org 2.0.0 or higher installed." i downgraded to 2.0.4 and it works, but not with 2.1. it's a pity because i find 2.1 a great improvement over 2.0.4, which for me at least is rather buggy... best, lj ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
piano pedal lines over staff

line-width in lilypond-book
I'm trying to set a songbook using lilypond-book with lilypond 2.10.2 and latex with the geometry package. By some reason lilypond doesn't guess the right linewidth, so I have tried to specify it by: \lilypondfile[line-width=10\cm]{infile.ly} but that doesn't affect the linewidth. But if I set line-width in the layout block in the .ly-file, then it works nicely. I would like the scaling to take place in the latex document, so if anyone could tell me, why it works in the one place but not in the other, I would be thankful!

General Thought on ChordNames Context and horizontal spacing
I was having problems with the horizontal spacing using the ChordNames context. I tried to put in a post, but it was delayed (presumably due to the size of the attachment). I cancelled the post because I found my work around, and think I understand the issue. I was using a basic chordal rhythm of quarter - quarter - dotted quarter - eigth, tying the eight to the quarter that starts the next bar. Some of my chords have fairly long names - E7sus4, Cadd9/add#11. It seems that the engraver was basing the spacing on what would be needed with all the chord names printed, even though I had set the ChordChanges to true. I worked around it by removing the chords in the ChordName context wheere they are not needed. That is I replaced the chords inthe middle of each bar with rests. Presto - score looks far more consise and readable. I'm using v2.6.5 on a windows box. I figured since I had not seen anything in the archives about this I'd post it for posterity, although I'm not sure how applicable this is to newer versions. _ Explore the seven wonders of the world http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q=7+wonders+world&mkt=en-US&form=QBRE___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

First, the LSR doesn't (AFAIU) like /include statements --- I think this is because it runs in safe mode and won't do it for security reasons. So you'll have to combine it all into one file. Second, the LSR is running a stable Lilypond, so you'll need to modify your file to use 2.10 syntax. This may not seem to be so hard -- if I comment the version number it compiles cleanly. I've had a very quick look at the file, and I'm having trouble getting it to convert the ps into pdf. But it produces png without any hassle, so I imagine this isn't the problem at the LSR's end. -- = Cameron Horsburgh = ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
