Re: Latest Lilypond versions on Ubuntu?

2008-01-10 Thread Francisco Vila
2008/1/9, Joseph Haig [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
 I use Lilypond on Ubuntu and I just user the installer from
 lilypond.org.  Get the latest from here:

   http://lilypond.org/web/install/

 and then in a console,

 $ chmod +x lilypond-2.10.33-1.linux-x86.sh
 $ sudo ./lilypond-2.10.33-1.linux-x86.sh

This is correct but there is no need to make the script executable if
you launch it as an argument of the sh command, this way:

sudo sh lilypond-2.10.33-1.linux-x86.sh

As you are on the same directory the script is, and it is a regular
filename used as argument, also there is no need of the ./ part.

To uninstall, simply write sudo unin and press TAB, it will
autoexpand to uninstall-lilypond (unless you have more unin*
executables in your path)

Re: collision, is there a workaround?

2008-01-10 Thread Mats Bengtsson

Your example can be reduced to
\version 2.11.37
\relative c'''  { a8\rest ais4 }
which shows the same bug, namely a collision between the rest
and the note (which only seems to happen if the pitch is high enough so that
the note gets a ledger line). This is a regression against 2.10.33.

Strangely enough, you can't use standard tricks like

\once \override Score.SeparationItem #'padding = #1

to add some spacing between the notes. The only solution I could find was
to add the following before the rest:
\once \override Rest #'X-extent = #'(0 . 1.5)

Right, that's what I mean. If you compare to 2.10, you will see a 
significant difference.

The fact that
\relative c'''  { a8\rest \once \override Score.SeparationItem #'padding 
= #10 ais4 }

doesn't make any difference is also a regression against 2.10.

Then you haven't read them so carefully! :-)
Anyway, I realize that my previous formulations of this bug (and 
therefore your

description of it in the bug tracker) may be misleading.
The bug is an (almost) collision between a rest and an accidental and 
the fact

that this only occurs when the note and the rest are outside the staff.
Even though the spacing algorithms have changed between 2.10 and 2.11
and it's partly subjective how closely spaced the objects could be 
before calling
it a bug, the problem here is that there's no non-ugly way of fixing 
the problem

for a user who wants a larger spacing.
Perhaps the true bug may be that the left-padding property is completely
ignored in
\relative c''  {
\override Score.AccidentalPlacement #'left-padding = #10
a8\rest ais4 }
The default setting of this property is 0.2, which seems to indicate 
that the intention

is to avoid the edge-to-edge placement that we see with 2.11.37.

Re: different tempos

2008-01-10 Thread Kieren MacMillan

Hi Kostia,

Welcome to Lilypond!  =)

Without seeing your exact code (Lilypond source file), it is  
difficult to diagnose the problem.


However, I might recommend the following approach:

1. Writing all the music in a very short time signature (e.g., 2/4,  
or even 1/4).

2. Remove all TimeSignature and BarLine objects.

That way, Lilypond can break at whatever point seems right to it,  
and there won't be any time signatures or bar lines to worry about.


Hope this helps!
Kieren.

I am stumped.

I have a score with 22 staves, one system to a page.

I want Lilypond to layout the score so that the the score fills the
page. It would be very nice if the first staff and last staff on each
page lined up when laid side by side. In other words, I want Lilypond
to stretch the interstaff spacing appropriately for each page. I have
searched the manual and the LSR without success. I've tried setting

VerticalAlighment #'max-stretch = #ly:align-interface::calc-max-stretch

without any change.

In particular, the first page is the worst. Lilypond is pushing the
staves way down (actually off) the page and leaving a large gap at the
top between the title and the first staff.

I am running 2.11.36.


There is nothing special about the code or music to post. This is a 
different problem from my prior question asking how to even out the 
staves over multiple pages in orchestral parts. The solution offered 
(to set ragged-last-bottom = #f ) worked great.


The issue here is just that in a 32 pages orchestral score, the total 
vertical height of the score increases and decreases with the number 
of ledger lines and text and I find the look of the score awkward as 
I read through the pages.


Is there a way to instruct Lilypond to use all the available vertical 
space on a page?


Much obliged.

Line-width, Staff Size, Print Size

2008-01-10 Thread Reilly
What is the relationship between the digital size of the line-width 
and staff height (in Lilypond specs, in the .ps file, and in the .pdf 
file) and the printed output? Is it true and invariant?


If I specify that the line-width = 178 mm, is it truly 178 mm?
If I specify a staff height (#(set-global-staff-size 17.82)), is the 
staff height truly 6.3 mm?


Here's the situation: up to now I have printed out my musical 
manuscripts at home and adjusted the staff size by eye and ruler. If I 
needed enlargements, I photocopied and enlarged the original by eye and 
ruler.


I am now preparing a major orchestral score and parts and sending the 
.pdf files electronically to a print shop. I will format the musical 
score for an 8.5 x 11 in original so that the print shop will enlarge 
the score perfectly to 11x14 inches and the parts to 9.5 x 12 inches 
respectively.


I need to tell the print shop the enlargement percentages. I am not 
asking for help in arithmetic here --- I can do the math. For example, 
if I wanted 1 inch margins in my 11 x 14 in score (and if I were 
printing directly onto 11 x 14 inch paper), I would set the line-width 
= 228.6 mm for 11x14 in paper. *However,* since I am formatting the 
score for 8.5 x 11 in paper, I must scale the line-width to 177.2 mm 
(78% reduction). Then the printer will enlarge the  digital original 
by 129% to yield a final size of 228.6 mm.


Will this reasoning hold accurately in the digital realm?

Any pitfalls to watch out for?

Much obliged.

Depends on your printer and it might call for minor adjustments.
But it should be 1:1. Print out a grid and find out.

 If I specify that the line-width = 178 mm, is it truly 178 mm?
...

I did a test run with a score with linewidth = 155 \mm, and it come out 
as 155mm plus 1-1.5mm for the choral staff bracket.

Why don't you simply test it.

\paper {

}

works here.

Maybe it's just a typo error...

thanks a lot,

I don't now how to concatenate the information given in the manual,  
it was pretty cryptic to me:


systemSeparatorMarkup
This contains a markup ob ject, which will be inserted between systems.
This is often used for orchestral scores. Unset by default.
The markup command \slashSeparator is provided as a sensible de-
fault, for example

Someone suggested it was a typo - sure enough,

seperator != separator.

Thanks a lot, I've just done it and everything seems to work fine!
I didn't compile by hand for a long time and that was a pleasure...
The single strange thing that happened is that I can't compile the doc, but
without ( .\configure --disable-documentation), everything is fine.

If you look at the declaration of slashSeparator (it is in titling-init.ly):
slashSeparator = \markup {
  \hcenter
  \vcenter \combine
  \beam #2.0 #0.5 #0.48
  \raise #0.7 \beam #2.0 #0.5 #0.48
}


You will easily see how to change it.

What does the doc tell you?

 systemSeparatorMarkup
 This contains a markup ob ject, which will be inserted between systems.

OK. So it is in fact a markup. You can do whatever you want with it:

systemSeparatorMarkup = \markup {
\bold \huge Ole \normal was here }

 This is often used for orchestral scores. Unset by default.

OK. By default, you won't have any.

 The markup command \slashSeparator is provided as a sensible de-
 fault, for example

The \slashSeparator is a shortcut to insert a nice (but tiny) slash. OK.

Let's see how it is made. The source file is in the /ly directory, and
we can see in titling-init.ly that the \slashseparator command is
actually defined as follows :
slashSeparator = \markup {
  \hcenter
  \vcenter \combine
  \beam #2.0 #0.5 #0.48
  \raise #0.7 \beam #2.0 #0.5 #0.48
}

You can play with these numbers the way you want.

Valentin

special characters in markup

I can no longer find (with the 2.11 docs) how to put special (reserved)

Maybe :
\markup \char #'2014-Germain

That's a good answer which I can use.

I was actually thinking about normal characters like '' which have 
another syntactical meaning in Lily.

This is not really needed anymore, as LilyPond can support all UTF-8
characters natively.

 I was actually thinking about normal characters like '' which have
 another syntactical meaning in Lily.

Actually, the double quote is the only character you need to 'escape',
by preceding it with a backslash:

\markup This 'is' #a \quoted sentence\ \with $pecial {chars}

As you can see, the #, { or \ characters are otherwise looking good.

Lilypond: Newsgroup?

2008-01-10 Thread Stefan Slapeta
Hi all,

 

I guess there are no newsgroups reflecting the lilypond mailing lists at the
moment.?

 

If not, should we try to set them up? That would make some things a lot
easier.

I can't see it making a huge difference.  If you're interested, I
believe that gmane supplies NNTP.  I only spent 30 seconds looking
at their site, so I'm not totally certain though.

I do - searching in old threads is a _LOT_ easier with a newsgroup client
than via http archive!

I've been working for with gmane for some years in boost C++ newsgroups and
I've also been moderator there ... I didn't have any negative experience so
far.

The setup of a new group is very easy and straightforward. More difficult is
the migration of the previous mailings.

Shall I drop Lars a note?
