RE: outputting multiple parts from a score and 1 is not is not output
You could try adding ragged-bottom = ##t ragged-last-bottom = ##t to the \paper section. Nick -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of chip Sent: Monday, 8 December 2008 14:23 To: lilypond-user@gnu.org Subject: outputting multiple parts from a score and 1 is not is not output Ok, heheh, I found the missing file. When lily outputs the multiple parts to individual files they are called filename.pdf filename-1.pdf filename-2.pdf etc etc I was looking for filename-1.pdf through filename-6.pdf but lo and behold! there is no -6 because of the aforementioned naming scheme. Okay, so that's out of the way, howabout this - My short piece prints on two pages, the score that is, not the parts. On page one there is a large gap of white space between the two systems, but on page 2 there is the expected small gap between them with the large white space below the second system. What must I do to get page one to print that same way? It's looks bad with that large gap between the two systems.

[2.11.65] \dotsDown doesn't work?
Hello,
i've cut four bars from two voices from some piece, SA-TB (two staves)
(please see below the snippet, only tenor and bass, no lyrics).
When lilypond produces whole piece, there is a collision in \bass:
upper tie crosses lower dot (mmm... probably, not allways, but sometimes;-).
For some reason, it does not happen in this snippet; but the question is --
why \dotsDown does not work here (in chords of the second voice)?

Re: Again: Whole Bar Rests and Unmetered Music
2008/12/7 Neil Puttock [EMAIL PROTECTED]: It's not a very elegant solution, but you could override the stencil using \musicglyph to access the semibreve rest, positioning it manually using 'X-offset and 'staff-position. Mmm... Adjusting 'X-offset is really not a very elegant way :-) But a possible one, anyway.

Hi, is this a bug or a feature? - on Lilypond 2.10.33 if you do c'1 R1*4 d' e' it leaves some extra blank bars after the D. To get around it, you have to write c'1 R1*4 d'1 e' i.e. you can't assume that the 1 from the R1*4 will carry over to the next note. Should this be mentioned in the documentation? Thanks.

French Score only when it actually saves paper?
Hi, I have an orchestral score that has only 1
system per page. I did:
\layout {
\context { \RemoveEmptyStaffContext }
}
and it works great, except for one problem: On
most pages, not enough of the staves are removed
to be able to fit another system on. Result: the
reader has to do more work looking at which
stave is which, while no paper is being saved.
There doesn't seem much point in doing
RemoveEmptyStaff if it doesn't actually save
paper but just leaves a slightly bigger gap at
the bottom of the page. Is there any way (or
could it be added to some list of possible
future features) that \RemoveEmptyStaffContext
can be extended with the logic if, after removing
empty staffs and paginating, any page has only
one system on it, then put back all the empty
staffs on that page ?
Or if that's too hard, maybe if, after
removing empty staffs, any system is bigger
than half a page height, then put back the
empty staffs on that system - but that would
not be quite so good, because it wouldn't
account for what happens when there's a single
3-staff system between two 15-staff systems -
the 3-staff system would probably still have a
page to itself just because it can't be fitted
on either of its neighbour pages, in which case
it might as well have all staffs. It would be
better to first paginate and then put back
empty staffs. But at least don't remove empty
staffs on systems that would still be bigger
than half a page high would catch some cases.
Or how about this: Remove empty staffs, but
only on systems that have at least N empty
staffs, where N is a number that I specify.
This has the same limitations as the previous
one but doesn't have to know about page height.
Or: Remove empty staffs, but only if this
system has at least N empty staffs AND ((this
isn't the last system AND the next system has
at least N empty staffs) OR (this isn't the
first system AND the previous system has at
least N empty staffs)). That would let the
user choose a value of N that would result in
empty staves being removed only when this would
actually result in more than 1 system being
able to fit on a page, while the empty staff
remover would not have to know about pagination
or page height. However it would still be
limited in that if there were, say, 3 systems
each half a page high, with full-page systems
before and after the 3 half-page systems, then
the 3rd half-page system would leave half a
blank page and might as well have all its
staves filled in.
Or maybe just allow the user to switch
empty-staff removal on and off at arbitrary bars.
That would at least allow the user to go
through the printed output and manually adjust
it to make sure empty staffs are removed only
in sections where it makes sense to do so.
Thanks.
Silas
