Well, right now I'm rewriting the parmesan stuff to make it work with mf2pt1 (the feta stuff has already be done two years ago). After this has been finished, only `fill' and `unfill' is used, and `draw' and `drawdot' are gone. > My suggestion is to render the outside contour as a coarse bitmap, > and then use potrace to generate a simple curved representation. I was thinking of doing something similar directly in metafont: 1. Collect all paths within a glyph so that they can be addressed sequentially. 2. Find intersections of horizontal rays coming from the left with all paths, taking the minimum x value of the found intersections. The vertical distance of those rays (which gives the resolution granularity) is something I would like to know from you. 3. Repeat step 2 for the remaining three directions.

Hi, Steve:
\score {

\clef bass
\new Voice = ten { \global \Three }
\new Voice = bar { \global \Two }
\new Voice = bas { \global \One }

}
You might try explicitly setting
\new Voice = ten { \voiceOne \global \Three }
\new Voice = bar { \voiceThree \global \Two }
\new Voice = bas { \voiceTwo \global \One }
and see what happens...
Hope this helps!

Re: \override VerticalAlignment #'forced-distance in version 2.11.15
Hi,
Just to clarify this, VerticalAlignment no longer has the property
forced-distance in v 2.11. The lilypond score I am processing was
written by a relative who unfortunately died last year and I am not sure
exactly what effect he was trying to achieve. Getting it to work at all
was a bit of a struggle as it didn't have a \version tag and I had to
use convert-ly several times before I got it to work.

Hymn settings and partcombine?
Below is a lilypond file that is typical of some hymn settings i'm trying (the
core of this is from hymn.ly from the snippet repository). Basically, the
soprano and alto are on a stave together the tenor and bass are on seperate
staves, corresponding to RH, LH, and pedal for organ. It's no big deal to
rearrange the voices in the score section to have the RH be soprano only, and
then the LH to be the alto and tenor - in a separate file. But I would
like to be able to arrange a single file that has, for example in a four stanza
hymn, the first and second stanzas set RH:soprano and alto, LH:tenor, PED:bass;
the third stanza set like RH:soprano, LH:alto and tenor, PED bass; then the
final stanza set like stanzas one and two but transposed up a half-step or a
whole step.
(see %%%comments in the score%%%)(the basic setting works great, but crashes
when...)

note collisions .... and \layout question
I must admit to being quite confused about the proper setup of \score
and \layout for vocal music. I am trying to typeset a 3-part men's
vocal piece and the composer has drawn it out on a single bass clef
staff ... i.e. 3 parts sharing the same staff.
My method for using Lilypond to typeset this is to type in the notes
(music expressions) of the three voices separately, naming each of them
One, Two, and Three respectively (per the composer's naming
conventions). Then I use the \staff and \layout code below to put the
three voices together (with lyrics) on a single staff.
\score {
\new StaffGroup <<
\new Staff = men { <<
\clef bass
\new Voice = ten { \global \Three }
\new Voice = bar { \global \Two }
\new Voice = bas { \global \One }
>>
}
\new Lyrics = "l3" \lyricsto "bas" \words
>>
\layout {
\context { \Score \override SeparationItem #'padding = #0.3 }
\context { \Staff \override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent =
#'(-3 . 3) }
\context { \Staff \accepts "Lyrics" }
\context { \Lyrics \override LyricSpace #'minimum-distance = #1.6 }
}
The resulting compilation results in many, many occurrences of the message
warning: ignoring too many clashing note columns
Indeed, I am getting a lot of flags and bars on top of others and, in
general, quite a mess. There are some cases where two notes a small
interval apart have their note heads essentially on top of each other as
well. I've tried going into the source and marking it \noFlag for
various notes ... and this helps, but there are so many of these
collision errors that I feel I must be doing something that is rather
basic wrong.
I've used Lilypond to typeset several pieces in the past without running
into this problem but each seems structurally a bit different and,
though I've read a lot of documentation, I've never had a good
understanding of how to properly use the Staffs and Layout and Contexts.
Any suggestions of guidance on this would be greatly appreciated. I'm
using lilypond version 2.8.0 running on Linux Fedora Core 6.

novice typesetter

Re: Measure number collision
2007/4/23, Joe Neeman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Here is an example of a treble clef. I only need the outermost curves traced, but it doesn't matter if some other curves are. I don't know exactly what the resolution needs to be, but it should distinguish between, for example, the stem and the bottom of a flat (also between the stems and the middle of a natural). I think it would be hard to write macros to approximate strokes with lines. My suggestion is to render the outside contour as a coarse bitmap, and then use potrace to generate a simple curved representation. -- Han-Wen Nienhuys - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanwen ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

See the end of the section on "grace notes" in the manual. You can work around
the weirdness by adding a grace skip in the lower staff:
mylowerstaff = {
\clef bass
\grace s16
r4
} % end lowerstaff

Re: beginning-of-measure padding value?
Hi, Graham:
Could you make up a minimal example (perhaps with some of the stuff
below)
Will do.
Anything in particular other than this?
Here are three screenshots from my "COA" reed part (sorry: no time to
make minimal examples right now, so I can't be sure how many of these
are easily reproducible, or are artifacts of my particular score and
engraving code).
1. Collisions: between \markup (attached to initial rest), slur, and
\mark:
2. Collision: dynamic indication in one (single-staff) system with
slur, articulation, and \mark in the following system:
3. Collisions: \repeat "tremolo":
Minimal example for #3:
\version "2.11.12"
\paper { ragged-right = ##t }
\score
{
{ \time 6/4 \repeat "tremolo" 24 { b'32 d'' } | }
}
Cheers,
Kieren.

gracenote producing wrong clef
In keyboard music, an appoggiatura for the first note in the treble staff
interferes with the clefs in the lower staff. It makes the bass staff start
with a treble clef folllowed immediately by the correct bass clef.
Removing the appogg gets rid of the problem: lower staff starts with the
bass clef as it should.
Lilypond v. 2.11.20. Bug? or my error?
Small example:
myupperstaff = {
\clef treble
\time 4/4
\appoggiatura f'16 e4
} % end myupperstaff
mylowerstaff = {
\clef bass
r4
} % end lowerstaff
\score{
\new GrandStaff
<<
\new Staff = trebleStaff \relative c' \myupperstaff
\new Staff = bassStaff \relative c \mylowerstaff
>>
}
Same thing happens if I use PianoStaff instead of separate staves combined
into GrandStaff.

I have placed my harmonic analysis in a lyrics line below the bass
