Re: staff switches
p.s. For the record, you can also do it in a single command:
\version "2.11.49"
voiceA = \relative
{
c4 d e g,
f e e' d
}
voiceAswitches =
{
s2. \change Staff = "LH" s4
s2 \change Staff = "RH" s2
}
\score
{
\new PianoStaff
<<
\new Staff = "RH" \new Voice = "RH_voice" << \voiceA
\voiceAswitches >>
\new Staff = "LH" { \clef bass s1*2 }
>>
}

Re: staff switches
Hi James,
Is it possible to have staff switches in a separate variable?
I was thinking somthing along the lines of
voiceA = \relative {
c4 d e g,
f e e' d
}
voiceAswitches = {
s2. \change Staff = "LH" s4
s2 \change Staff = "RH" s2
}
\score {
\new PianoStaff
<<
\new Staff = "RH" \voiceA
\new Staff = "LH" <<\clef bass s1*2>>
>>
}
but that doesn't work out so well for me. Any suggestions?
Here's a perfect reason to use \context Voice instead of — or rather,
in addition to — \new Voice:
\version "2.11.49"
voiceA = \relative
{
c4 d e g,
f e e' d
}
voiceAswitches =
{
s2. \change Staff = "LH" s4
s2 \change Staff = "RH" s2
}
\score
{
\new PianoStaff
<<
\new Staff = "RH"
\new Voice = "RH_voice" \voiceA
\context Voice = "RH_voice" \voiceAswitches
\new Staff = "LH" { \clef bass s1*2 }
>>
}
Once the Voice context has been created and populated with the notes,
you are then able to "cram the staff switch information" down its
throat by referencing it using the \context Voice construct. =)
Hope this helps!
Kieren.

Re: #(layout-set-staff-size 3)
Hi,
I supposed you want to change one staff size for one instrument and stay
with normal size for the order staff
Try these
\version "2.11.51"
flaute = \context Staff
\with { fontSize = #-3 \override StaffSymbol #'staff-space = #(
magstep -3 ) }
\clef treble
melody = { \flaute { \key c\major \relative c'' { c8 d4\f\> c8 b4 a4\! } } }
upper = { \relative c' { \key c\major c1 } }
\score {
<<
\context staff = "melody" \melody
\context staff = "upper" \upper
>>
}
I think it is these that you ask... i'm newbie on lilypond.. dont forget to
give me some feedback..

Rather than trundle off a list of suggestions, I thought it might be

Since the built-in support for accordion (using articulations) is no
longer working, should we junk the init file accordion-defs-init.ly?

Re: Creating Chorded Notes
Sounds like you are also saying that the way I'm going to get this to
work is to learn a little scheme. I'm OK with that, I like learning
new languages. I like to learn a new one every year or so. It's just
that I'm already learning a couple this year. Getting this all to work
is a big priority for me so here I go. I'm starting with the Scheme
Tutorial in the LM. Then I'll read the Interfaces for programmers
chapter in the NR. If that doesn't get me all the way there I'll keep
asking questions.
Thanks for getting going in the right direction. Having a path to
follow makes the journey fun.

The key to discovering how to do this is \displayMusic. Compile
\displayMusic { 2 }
in LilyPond and the Scheme equivalent is shown in the console log.
In this case it is:
(make-music
'SequentialMusic
'elements
(list (make-music
'EventChord
'elements
(list (make-music
'NoteEvent
'duration
(ly:make-duration 1 0 1 1)

(make-music
'NoteEvent
'duration
(ly:make-duration 1 0 1 1)

Re: Enlarge the size of the accidentals in figured bass
Hi Arno, 2008/7/12 Arno Rog <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Is there a way to enlarge the accidentals in a figured bass, > leaving the size of the numbers unchanged? Yes, but it's a bit hackish, since you'll have to change the details for accidentals inside the function which does the figured bass formatting. The default function, format-bass-figure, is found in the file scm/translation-functions.scm; the relevant part is the following: (alt (ly:event-property event 'alteration)) (alt-markup (if (number? alt) (markup #:general-align Y DOWN #:fontsize (if (not (= alt DOUBLE-SHARP)) ;fontsize defaults set here, -2 for all accidentals except double-sharp -2 2) (alteration->text-accidental-markup alt)) #f)) You can either amend it in situ if you want the changes to be global, or copy it into a .ly file and rename it, setting the function using \set figuredBassFormatter = #renamed-bass-formatter-function.

Re: Size Matters
Hi Dennis, It appears that the #layout-set-staff-size does not set sizes for the same classes of things as set-global-staff-size. set-global-staff-size scales everything, while #layout-set-staff-size does not scale [...] This is definitely one of my big pet peeves with Lilypond — hopefully, someone will soon fix this, since it's obviously not intuitive or useful in it's current behaviour. Look in the docs (incl. LSR) for things with magstep: that will help you find a workaround.

Adding chord names to a piano staff format
I have this to build the guitar chords
guitarChords = \chordmode {d a/fis g:7 g/a (etc) }
Then I have this to build the whole score:
\score {
\new GrandStaff <<
\new Staff = upper { \new Voice = "one" \upper } % upper is the
melody line
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "one" \verseWords %
verseWords are the verse words alright=^D
\new Staff = lower { \lower }% lower
is the bass line
>>
\layout {
\context { \GrandStaff \accepts "Lyrics" }
\context { \Lyrics \consists "Bar_engraver" }
}
}
\midi { }
}
Where and how do I add the chord names so they are above the melody line?
Thank you in advance.
Graham

Size Matters
I have a large set of solo arrangements that use
#(set-global-staff-size XX)
where XX varies somewhat from arrangement to
arrangement. This is set following a paper block
and before the score block in each separate file.
I would now like to combine these into a book
by merging the files and using a book block around
the scores, but I need to maintain the varying
staff size. I tried using:
\layout {#(layout-set-staff-size XX )}
within each score, but I got very different
results. Apparently the units implied in these
two statements is different, the first being
points and the second being mm. Do I understand
this correctly?
*But* when I convert to what should be the same
size, I still get a different result. Some sizes are right
but others are not. It appears that the
#layout-set-staff-size does not set sizes for the same
classes of things as set-global-staff-size. set-global-staff-size
scales everything, while #layout-set-staff-size does
not scale the staff itself (only the notes) and text seems
inconsistent between titles and markup. There may
be other differences I haven't identified.
How can I maintain the varying staff sizes that
I need across a book of scores? Is there something
I can set instead of #layout-set-staff-size, or in
addition to it? Some other approach entirely?
Thanks for any help,
-Dennis-

Enlarge the size of the accidentals in figured bass

that's truly great, jon, thank you!! i'd never have found that myself,
i'm afraid... :-(
i increased the fontsize a bit and adjusted the offsets accordingly and
i got exactly what i was looking for. here's my slightly modified code:
\version "2.11.51"
\relative c'' {
\override TextScript #'staff-padding = #'()
\once \override TextScript #'extra-offset = #'(-1.0 . -3.8)
r4^\markup { \fontsize #3 { "[ ]" } }
}

A bit of Scheme code is all you need: \override Rest #'stencil = #(lambda (grob) (bracketify-stencil (ly:rest::print grob) Y 0.2 0.2 0.2)) The appearance can be adjusted by altering the three numbers which determine the bracket's thickness, protrusion and padding.

Hi Luis,
I got the brackets to go inside the staff with this code. If you
fiddle with the markup (change font size, spacing, whatever) and
the values inside the parentheses you can probably get it to look

hello list,
i'd need to place brackets around a rest in the score. something like
\parenthesize but square brackets [ ].
i tried using a \markup, but no matter what i try, i found no way to
place the brackets in the staff around the rest. i tried every
tweak i
could find in the manual, but it seems to me that lilypond is always
smarter and refuses to place the markup _in_ the staff.
could anyone help me with this? is it at all possible?
