Re: cruft after introduction to vocal piece
It's all explained in chapter 8.3.2. You have to add \override Score.VerticalAxisGroup #'remove-first = ##t somewhere in your score so that RemoveEmptyStaffContext also removes empty staves frome the first system. regards, Tao Original-Nachricht Datum: Thu, 26 Jul 2007 22:34:23 -0700 Von: Paul A.

Re: cruft after introduction to vocal piece
Ok, sorry, I misunderstood your problem. The thing here is that you split your parts and in the score block you create two piano staves whereas one is completely sufficient. the time signature appears because the staff with the melody line begins after the line break. you have to add rests like R1*4 to your melody line and let it begin at the same time the piano intro does and reduce your score block to one PianoStaff. And then add the command I suggested earlier and first system will only show the piano intro. I hope that helps. regards, Tao Original-Nachricht Datum: Fri, 27 Jul 2007 02:38:01 -0400 Von: Ed Ravin [EMAIL PROTECTED] An: Paul A.

Re: dot-matrix printer
In the 80's dot-matrix printers were already able to print graphics of good quality. At that time, the problem was more the screen resolutions... Currently, the cost of a dot-matrix may not be lesser than an ink-jet printer. It depends on the contry you live in. Check also the cost of the inks in both cases. If you live in an appartment, check also the noise of the printer you intend to buy. Francois Planiol-Auger wrote: Hi!

Re: Standalone bar lines in StaffGroup
Hi Siska, Do you have any idea on how to suppress the global barline settings (if I understand the terminology well, this is supposed to be called 'barline engraver'), but only for those few bars, not for the entire score? I don't believe you can globally affect the barline_engraver itself. However, you could always define a macro to accomplish the task easily, as shown below. Hope this helps! Kieren. __ \version 2.11.27 hideBarlines = { \override Score.SpanBar #'transparent = ##t \override Score.BarLine #'transparent = ##t } showBarlines = { \override Score.SpanBar #'transparent = ##f \override Score.BarLine #'transparent = ##f } theMusic = \relative { a a a a | b b b b | \hideBarlines c c c c | d d d d | \showBarlines e e e e } \score { \new StaffGroup \theMusic \theMusic } ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

And it occurs to me that nowhere in the user manual do we really discuss this (quite useful) attribute? Is that, in fact, the case? If so, maybe a good Samaritan act for somebody (including possibly me when I get some time in the fall) would be to add a subsection to section 11.6 Horizontal spacing called something like 11.6.6 Setting preferatory spacing. Chapter 11 on spacing has truly come along tremendously in 2.11 and this might be a nice extension to that work. Examples of each of the attributes in the break-alignable-interface, break-aligned-interface and break-alignment-interface would go a long way to exhibiting full control over stacking and space what shows up at the beginnings of lines and measures.

Re: Standalone bar lines in StaffGroup
Hello, I tried out the '\override SpanBar #'transparent = ##t' command, and although it really removes the barlines between staves, the problem is, that if I introduce a barline in a staff (or I put the repeat volta command) I still get the barlines in every stave. Do you have any idea on how to suppress the global barline settings (if I understand the terminology well, this is supposed to be called 'barline engraver'), but only for those few bars, not for the entire score?

My problem is that if I do what was described there, I get separate barlines for the whole movement. I only need at about 2 measures with separate barlines, the rest should have the same time signature and barline. I try to put here in some kind of plain text that part of the piece (without shars and flats to see better what's going on): | gagabgabgabgabg | abca |: gabca :| (*17) | agabgabgabgabga | bacba |: gabacba :| (*12) | gabgabgabgabgab | cgabc |: gabc :| (*21) As you can see, in the first bar, the barlines are at the same time in every staff, so they must be connected. The begin-repeat barlines are at different times, so they shouldn't be connected with each other. Finally, the ending barlines occur at the same time. (There are 17*5 = 85 notes in the first staff inside the repeat, while there are 7 * 12 = 4 * 21 = 84 notes inside the repeats of the other two staves. If you take in account that the repeat block in the first staff begins one note prior to the repeat blocks of the other staves, you'll see that the ending barlines occur at the same time). Now, I have to invent something to engrave this... Hm... If you have to do it manually, do you know about the difference between the Bar and SpanBar grobs? The SpanBar is the element that goes *between* (but not *through) the staves. And you can dynamically hide (and show) the SpanBars at any point using something like \once \override SpanBar #'transparent = ##t. I think the SpanBar lives in a relaitvely high-level context, so you might have to say Score.SpanBar or something to make it work. Try running a small test to see how that works. You can also add bars at any point with \bar | if you do have to go the manual route. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Why will this tie not work?
Hello: First, I'd like to thank the Lilypond programmers for a great job! I finally finished typesetting two of these Scsarlatti Sonatas, one of which was from the ubiquitous Longo edition. After sitting at keyboard and trying to read both, the Longo edition is no longer good enough. Its almost unreadable and it looks hideous. Lilypond manages in three pages of easiyl readable score to do what the Longo Edition makes almost unreadable in 4 pages. Thanks again. Now my problem, the following lines have one tied note, the a in the Right Hand upper voice is tied to an a in the next bar. The only problem I can see for Lilypond is that its at that point which the bars of two voices merge to become one voice again. I've tried tweaking it in various ways i.e. coding both bars on the same like, coding the merged voice immediately following the lower voice, nothing seems to work. --- Code Snip - \version 2.11.27 \include english.ly upper = \relative c'' { \clef treble \key e \major \time 3/4 \mark Allegro cs8[bs cs ds e fs ] | % bar 61 e[ gs \grace fs16 e8 ds cs b ] \bar || % bar 62 \key eflat \major bf8[cf' bf af g f ] | % bar 63 g8[ bf \grace af16 g8 f ef d ] | % bar 64 ef[d ef f g af ]| % bar 65 g[ bf \grace af16 g8 f ef df ] | % bar 66 { \grace bf16 \stemUp cf2 af'4~ | } \\ { \stemDown cf,2. | }% bar 67,68 \stemUp af'8 \stemDown af[ gf f bf af ] | gf[bf \grace af16 gf8 f ef df ] | % bar 69 lower = \relative c { \clef bass \key e \major \time 3/4 cs8[bs cs ds e fs ] | % bar 61 e[ gs \grace fs16 e8 ds cs b ] \bar || % bar 62 \key eflat \major bf8[cf' bf af g f ] | % bar 63 g8[ bf \grace af16 g8 f ef d ] | % bar 64 ef[d ef f g af ] |% bar 65 g[ bf \grace af16 g8 f ef df ] | % bar 66 r8 af'8[f d cf af ] | % bar 67 bf,,2. | % bar 68 ef4 r4 r| % bar 69 r8 af''8[f d cf af ]\bar || % bar 70 } \score { \new PianoStaff \set PianoStaff.instrumentName = Piano \new Staff = upper \upper \new Staff = lower \lower \layout { } \midi { } } End Code Snip --- Thanks for your help.

Re: Proposed chord name font (PDF included)
I like the chords you propose. Daniel Tonda Castillo 2007/7/27, PabloZum [EMAIL PROTECTED]: This is a proposed Arial-based font that could be included in future versions of LilyPond. Actually, it's more a range of possibilities than a new font. Placing chord extensions like b9 and #11 one above the other is not a new idea, and may be easily achieved by LilyPond wizards. For instance, the chord that appears as a C7 plus a small flat 9th above a small sharp 11th might conceivable be rendered in LilyPond notepad code as c:7[b9/#11]; similarly, a C9 plus a small sharp 11th above a 13th might be rendered as c:9[#11/13].

The end of the build log looks like this: /usr/bin/fontforge -script ../buildscripts/pfx2ttf.fontforge /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1/c059036l.pfb /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1/c059036l.afm ./out//usr/bin/fontforge -script ../buildscripts/pfx2ttf.fontforge /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1/c059033l.pfb /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1/c059033l.afm ./out//usr/bin/fontforge -script ../buildscripts/pfx2ttf.fontforge /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1/c059016l.pfb /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1/c059016l.afm ./out//usr/bin/fontforge -script ../buildscripts/pfx2ttf.fontforge /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1/c059013l.pfb /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1/c059013l.afm ./out/ true Copyright (c) 2000-2007 by George Williams.

Called from... ../buildscripts/pfx2ttf.fontforge: line 24 I really don't know anything about fontforge. Is it possible that there is something about the latest version of fontforge that is not compatible with the way it is being used in the current lilypond build process?
