TimeSignature as fraction: gap between numerator and denominator
Hello, I used 4/4 instead of C via \override Staff.TimeSignature #'style = #'() but the cyphers were huge. So I added \override Staff.TimeSignature #'font-size = #-2 But while the cyphers now are smaller, the numerator-4 stands still very close on the top of the denominator-4 without any gap, both together in the (vertical) middle of the stave. I would prefer both ciphers (vertically) centered in the upper and lower half of the stave respectively (means the numerator between the third and fifth line of the stave, the denominator between the first and third line) by default. Is there any solution? Greetings Werner ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: Doing \score { ...... } and \context Staff .... in scheme?
2008/2/13, Reinhold Kainhofer [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi all, In the large vocal and orchestral piece that I'm currently typesetting, I have lots of score and staff definitions, which look exactly the same, except for the variable names. Thus it would make tremendous sense to not hard-code them, but generate them on the fly by some scheme function. Unfortunately, all my attempts so far have failed... In particular, what is the scheme equivalent, producing the same as the following lilypond code? IChorObIScore = \score { \IChorObIStaff \header { piece = \IChorPieceName } } I simply want a scheme function generate-intrument-score piece instr, which I would then call as \generate-instrument-score #IChor #ObI Tha scheme function would then use (string-symbol (string-concat piece instr #Staff)) to generate \IChorObIStaff and (eval (string-symbol)) to insert the definition of \IChorObIStaff. So, basically, all I need is how to generate the \score { ... } in scheme. You have to use the scheme bindings. There is a ly:make-score function. 2.11.40 adds a ly:score-add-output-def function that will allow you define a piece of music generate-score = #(define-music-function (parser location piece instr) (string string) #{ \score { IIRC #{ can only contains music expressions. #(eval (string-symbol (string-append piece instr #Staff))) Inside scheme the # before a string is not necessary. -- 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

... What the Dutch, Danish, Finnish and Swedish words for 128th- and 256th-notes and -rests? I was able to get the note names for English (both flavors), French, Spanish, Italian and German elsewhere. That's why I only asked for the names in Dutch, Danish, Finnish and Swedish only. In English, this would depend on which side of the Atlantic you live in. Here in North America the standard terminology would be 128th note/rest or 256th note or rest. I'm not sure what the British call it. It will be something like semi-demi-hemi-quaver I believe.. someone will correct me if I'm wrong (quite possible!) If you follow the pattern, a 128th-note would be a semihemidemisemiquaver (though I have heard it called a quasihemidemisemiquaver) and a 256-note would be a demisemihemidemisemiquaver. But thanks for answering anyway. (Alard already answered for Dutch, so maybe I need to make a more pointed request to the known Danish, Finnish, and Swedish speakers on the list). Thanks!

IChorObIScore = \score { \IChorObIStaff \header { piece = \IChorPieceName } } You have to use the scheme bindings. There is a ly:make-score function. Thanks for the hint... Works so far (see attached example). However, how can I define a function so that instead of scheme, i.e. \score { #(createscore test) } i can simply do: % This does NOT work (syntax error) \score { \createscore #test} or even better: \createscore #test Now that this works more or less, how can I set 'header:piece only for this score? I tried ly:prob-set-property! and ly:context-set-property!, but neither works. Which type of object is a score? Also, how can I create a staff in scheme? A staff is no music expression, is it? 2.11.40 adds a ly:score-add-output-def function that will allow you define a piece of music What exactly does that do? There's no description, and the only use is in the incipit example inside a lambda function used as a stencil definition. That's wa above my head with regards to lilypond internals. generate-score = #(define-music-function (parser location piece instr) (string string) #{ \score { IIRC #{ can only contains music expressions.
