Re: Need help with this simple lyric

[peterwinson]

Mats, I think I figured it out, sort off.  The Maltese cross character
(U+2720) is part of the dingbats unicode code block.  On a windows XP
machine this character is part of the Wingdings font family.  The Wingdings
fonts do not have unicode definitions.  So Lilypond gets confused and Jedit
gets confused.  Thanks for your help.

Re: glissandi for chords

[Siska Ádám]

Hello,


that's it:

{\clef bass
<< \new Voice {
 \hideNotes
 % Attach glissando to noteheads
 e8 \glissando fis
 \unHideNotes
   } {
 % Original voice with chords rearranged so that glissando is 
attached to a & b

  \glissando 
 } >> }


hope this helps,
Adam

P.S. I found this better as in my original score I have dotted chords, 
and the dot positioning was better if I managed to do it this way.

I added it to the LSR; can you please post your code here (if you
think it's simpler) so I can correct the snippet?

Hi Neil,


thanks, this helped a lot.

Create another voice, then you can attach a glissando to it:

<< {  % New voice ( = \voiceOne) without stems or beams
 
\override Stem #'stencil = ##f

\override Beam #'stencil = ##f

% Attach glissando to noteheads
e8 \glissando fis
 
} \\ { % Original voice with chords rearranged so that glissando 
is attached to a & b

 \glissando

Hi there,
I've done a bit of digging, and have found the following under XP:

So by editing the textedit protocol in the registry, you can grab the
file:line:column from Acrobat.  I have no idea how to get PSPad to jump to a
given line:column from a script, though.

Hope this helps

Re: How to make notes like pitchedTrill?

[Kieren MacMillan]

Hi Adam,


I have to make a long glissando, and I would like to show the  
ending note of the glissando
with a small, stemless notehead without duration in parentheses  
(like the one produced by pitchedTrill).

Any ideas?


I've included one possibility, below; there are likely others (and  
better), but this works.


Hope this helps!
Kieren.

}

glissandi for chords

[Siska Ádám]

Hello Everyone,


one more question: how can I make double-glissandi? I have to connect 
two chords with glissando lines, but if I put


16 \glissando 

I only get one line between the e and fis, instead of getting two lines 
(one between a and h and another between e and fis). How could I correct 
this?



Thank you,
Adam

How to make notes like pitchedTrill?

[Siska Ádám]

Hello Everyone,


How can I make a stemless, small note head in parentheses outside a 
trill? I know that there's a command called 'pitchedTrill', but if I use 
it without using the startTrillSpan and stopTrillSpan commands, I get 
the following error:


error: syntax error, unexpected EXPECT_MUSIC, expecting EXPECT_MARKUP or 
EXPECT_SCM or EXPECT_NO_MORE_ARGS


(my guess was the following: fis \glissando \pitchedTrill his,,)

I have to make a long glissando, and I would like to show the ending 
note of the glissando with a small, stemless notehead without duration 
in parentheses (like the one produced by pitchedTrill). Any ideas?



Thank you,
Adam
