Re: Two questions about note heads

Remaining problems: Get the stems to attach properly (they seem to default to the top center). Get reasonable spacing between notes (they set with no space in between, but adding \hspace or even \null leads to a lot of space). Set the thing up globally to replace noteheads throughout a score (and take care of the other stuff) according to the note duration. I expect that I need to expand Mats' over-ride for stencil to a piece of conditional Scheme code. I'll figure this all out eventually, but if anybody already knows, a tip will be great. For the future, it would be great to have a user-settable list of noteheads for each duration as a parameter. Even better, you can already now specify a Scheme function that determines what note head to print. The function is specified using the property glyph-name of the NoteHead object and the implementation of the default function note-head::calc-glyph-name can be found in the file .../scm/output-lib.scm. /Mats ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: placement of figured bass
The answer is exactly the same as for your previous question, as you may
have
figured out yourself by now.

I've been trying to use a combination of figured bass and lyrics to
provide romain numeral annotation to music. In the following example,
the figured bass is placed far below and to the right of the
corresponding
lyric:
\version 2.10.17
\relative c' {
c d e f
}
\addlyrics {
I V IV ii
}
\new FiguredBass \figuremode {
6 6 4 6 6 4
}
Adding the following lines after \figuremode { shows that the
horizontal
spacing is actually increasing:
\override BassFigure #'font-size = #-2
\override BassFigure #'extra-offset = #'(-10 . 10)
I have also tried entering separate \new FiguredBass {...} as elements
in the list of lyrics. This resulted in increasing vertical offsets. The
increasing offsets eventually cause problems with the page layout.
Any suggestions?

Hallo all,
one question is still open for me:
is there a way to typeset vibrato (it should look like arpeggio, but
horizontal, not vertical)?
I'm sure I've seen that on mutopia some years ago, but soehow I cannot find it
anymore.

Re: Autobeaming in 3/8 time
You can use
\set Timing.beatLength = #(ly:make-moment 3 8)
but then you will get a funny looking result if you have the rhythm c8
c16 c16 c8
for example. I'm actually not convinced that LilyPond does what it
should in
these situations. There is a property subDivideBeams which seems to work
in some situations like
{
\time 2/4
b16 b b b b16 b b b
\set subdivideBeams = ##t
\set Score.beatLength = #(ly:make-moment 1 8)
b16 b b b b16 b b b
}
but in 3/8 time, we get subdivided beams even if this property is set to
false
(which it is by default).

I have worked around this problem with the following code:

Is there a more automated way to fix the problem in general? I've
always found the documentation about the automatic beaming behavior
somewhat cryptic. And if someone can figure out the way to automate
this case, can it become the default without breaking the rest of the
automatic beaming for 3/8 time, which is fine?

Re: Autobeaming in 3/8 time
fwiw i think the default is right - what's being asked for is (to be
pedantic) 6/16 beaming
anyway... if there aren't too may of them you could use a function
like this
\version 2.11.23
alt =
#(define-music-function (parser location music1 music2 music3
music4) (ly:music? ly:music? ly:music? ly:music?)
#{
$music1
\set stemLeftBeamCount = #1
\set stemRightBeamCount = #2
$music2
\set stemLeftBeamCount = #2
$music3
$music4
#})
{
\time 3/8
\alt c'8[ c'16 c' c']
}
cheers

Positioning of noteheads in a chord?
Hello all,
I searched the documentation, the archives and the snippet repository,
however, I could not find a solution to my problem:
In the following code, the last few notes have an alternative, which
is indicated by a smaller size of the notes.
In the chord fis g8 I would like the main note (fis) to appear on
the right side of the stem, but lilypond automagically sets the fis to
the left side and the g to the right.
===begin snippet=
\version 2.10.17
\include deutsch.ly
myStaffSize = #20
#(set-global-staff-size myStaffSize)
\paper{ #(define fonts
(make-pango-font-tree Lido STF
Lido STF
LucidaTypewriter
(/ myStaffSize 20)))
annotate-spacing = ##f
ragged-bottom = ##t
ragged-last-bottom=##t
left-margin = 2\cm
line-width = 18\cm
page-top-space = 0\cm
}
\header {
title = Lob Gott getrost mit Singen
composer = Friedrich Zipp
subtitle = EG 243
}
\score {
\new Staff
{ \clef F \key g \major \time 4/4 g4-- g8-. [ g8-. ]
fis \tweak #'font-size #-2 g8-. [ fis \tweak #'font-size #-2 g8-. ]
e \tweak #'font-size #-2 a8-. [ e \tweak #'font-size #-2 a8-. ] |
g \tweak #'font-size #-2 h2.-- \bar |. }
\layout { indent = #0 }
}
==end snippet==
Is there a \tweak or \override, that I overlooked in my search?
Is there a way to reverse the position of these two noteheads?
Liebe Grüße, Matthias

I seem to remember some recent discussions related to triangular note heads and the stem attachment of these. I searched triangle, triangle notehead, and triangular notehead, but the only relevant stuff I found was this thread. There is stuff about triangular percussion notes, the up-pointing triangular shape note, and someone's desire for a downward-pointing triangular notehead. The shape I need is a counterclockwise 90 degree rotation of the shape-note. I can get it within a markup, but not as a glyph. Remaining problems: Get the stems to attach properly (they seem to default to the top center). Here's what I thought would do it: \once \override NoteHead #'stem-attachment = #'(1 . 1 ) I find that the second component controls the vertical point of attachment, as verified by experiments with different values. But, for a wide range of values for the first component, the attachment remains at the horizontal center (as it is for the diamond-shaped mensural note that I am modifying). For the future, it would be great to have a user-settable list of noteheads for each duration as a parameter. Even better, you can already now specify a Scheme function that determines what note head to print. The function is specified using the property glyph-name of the NoteHead object and the implementation of the default function note-head::calc-glyph-name can be found in the file .../scm/output-lib.scm. I researched this, but alas it only seems to allow selection of an existing glyph. I am using a markup with a rotated glyph. I haven't found a way to let a markup masquerade as a glyph. I have a similar problem trying to redesign the clef sign. I tried what I thought was the analagous tweak used for time signature and notehead to substitute a markup, but only succeeded with a glyph straight from the Feta font.

how to write notes without staff?
hi, I need to write some little tests, in which I have to put simple notes, without staff, clef and time; I can make trasparent barlines by using \cadenzaOn, and I can have a single line using \new RithmStaff, but how can I make trasparent the line of RythmStaff? and how can I alternate notes and text character (like =, or +) using lilypond code only? I use Openoffice and OOoLilypond. thanks, bye -- Dario Marrini [EMAIL PROTECTED] Linux Registered User#240359 Linux Registered Machine #133789 ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
