Re: TextSpanner at Score level?
dammit, i should think a bit more before answering things. TextSpanner has been moved to the score context, so we need to tell the override to use the TextSpanner objects in the Score context rather than the default. change the definition of stringendo to: stringendo = { \textSpannerUp \override Score.TextSpanner #'bound- details #'left #'text = Stringendo } and bob's your hypothetical uncle. at least it works here for me w/ 2.12.1 regards, sb On Apr 21, 2009, at 8:36 AM, Simon Bailey wrote: \version 2.12.0 stringendo = { \textSpannerUp \override TextSpanner #'(bound-detail left text) = Stringendo } \new Score \with { \consists Text_spanner_engraver } \new Staff { \new Voice \with { \remove Text_spanner_engraver } { \stringendo c'1 \startTextSpan \repeat unfold 4 { c' } c'\stopTextSpan } } \new Staff { \new Voice \with { \remove Text_spanner_engraver } { \stringendo c'1 \startTextSpan \repeat unfold 4 { c' } c'\stopTextSpan } } -- Simon Bailey Oompa Loompa of Science +43 699 190 631 25 ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: Fingerings with Flat Symbol
Jonathan Townes wrote: the use of fingerings would be much faster and require less typing This nice aspect of fingerings is due to the parser knowing what a fingering looks like. But this is defined as being a single digit, so you only have ten things you can ask for (corresponding to 0 .. 9). Writing your own version of fingering::calc-text lets you choose what these ten things are, but you can't get any more than ten. So you are limited to ten combinations, which is nowhere near enough.

Fingering font size on grace notes
Fingering indications on grace notes doesn't shrink to be proportional to the reduced size of the grace note, and the full size indication looks excessively large alongside the note. It's easy enough to override - using \override Fingering #'font-size = #-8 seems about right - but perhaps this should happen automatically.

dual window editor
I'm a new user of Lily Pond. I'm running the program under Windows XP (I know, I know, don't tell me...) I find it fast and easy to use. I prefer it to Finale because it's so easy to debug the code.

One window would show the text file as it was being developed; the other side would display - on command - the resulting PDF image. (Think of the way the Matlab editor works.)

Once I learned it was there, I found it in Notation Reference, printed it, and have been adding notes to it as I go along. Very helpful to have it all in one place. It would have been even more helpful if I had known about it sooner. You could make these conventions explicit - I had to learn about them by trial and error. cis'4 is a valid command; cis4' is not. c (d e f %comment g a) causes an error, but c(d e f g a) %measure 64 does not.

Re: Lilypond to XML
As others have replied, this isn't currently a lilypond feature. However, a commercial program called pdftomusicpro provides translation between pdf output and another format which can then be exported to musicxml. It works pretty well, although I've only used it for leadsheet and songbook-style transcriptions. Depending on what you intend to do with the xml output, you may need to filter the output through one of the finale products to produce a more robust xml output. I haven't fully experimented with tab output, so I can't say how well the tab information is retained through this process.

Re: TextSpanner at Score level?
