Hi Stefan,
Is it possible to define another function, that shows an written dis

The \transpose function already does this! Simply use the enharmonic
transposition:
\version 2.12.2
sharpMusic = \relative { cis' dis fis gis ais }
\score {
\new Staff \sharpMusic
\new Staff \transpose cis des \sharpMusic
}
but this turns e to fes, doesn't it?
I think Stefan's problem is that some programs (devices) send a G-major scale as
g a b c d e ges g
and he wants to turn only the ges to fis.
Then, you can combine Keiren's solution with

Removing empty (drum) staff in a score, instrument name placement
Hi all, I am putting together my final project for a university undergraduate course, Instrumentation and Arranging. It's an arrangement of a short piano work by Ernesto Lecuona. It's arranged for the six instrumentalists in the class to perform live. I am almost finished, except for two small issues that I cannot fathom how to fix! The score source is located here: http://ross.uber.name/comparsa-lecuona.ly and the score pdf is here: http://ross.uber.name/comparsa-lecuona.pdf 1) Despite RemoveEmptyStaffContext being used (line 298), the congas part still persists in each system (from page 5 to the end), even though it contains only rests. \RemoveEmptyRhythmicStaffContext doesn't work either. If I can get that staff hidden, I think I will be able to shave four pages off of the score. 2) How can I place instrument names above and to the left the first system on the individual parts? See example (flute part): http://ross.uber.name/comparsa-lecuona-1.pdf I already have \remove Instrument_name_engraver in all the parts' books (line 306, etc.) Also, any coding or aesthetic tips for a beginner are welcome!

Mischa,
Don't forget to use reply to all so that

ragged-last-bottom is here:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/user/lilypond/Page-formatting#Other-layout-variables
The documentation for the other 3 were only
added to the source files recently:

So they won't appear in the docs until 2.13.1
is released. Of the three, it looks like only
systems-per-page is available in 2.13.0.
So you can try this:
\paper {
systems-per-page = #3
}
But you should also try this:
\paper {
ragged-last-bottom = ##t

hope this helps

Re: Removing empty (drum) staff in a score, instrument name placement
1. You would need (the nonexisting) RemoveEmptyDrumStaffContext. But
inspection of engraver-init.ly points to the solution:
\layout {
\context {
\RemoveEmptyStaffContext
}
\context {
\DrumStaff
\remove Axis_group_engraver
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'remove-empty = ##t
\consists Hara_kiri_engraver
}
}
2. Do not specify the instrumentname in the flt,sax, definitions.
For the full score, add the instrumentname to the score, as in
\new StaffGroup = ww
\new Staff = flt {
\set Staff.instrumentName = #Flute
\set Staff.shortInstrumentName = #Fl.
\flt
}
\new Staff = sax {
\set Staff.instrumentName = #Soprano Saxophone
\set Staff.shortInstrumentName = #Sop. Sax.
\sax
}
For the parts, specify the instrumentname with a markup
\book {
\markup Flute
\score {
\new Staff {
\flt
}
\layout { \indent = 0.0 }
}
}
Toine Schreurs
1) Despite RemoveEmptyStaffContext being used (line 298), the congas
part still persists in each system (from page 5 to the end), even
though it contains only rests. \RemoveEmptyRhythmicStaffContext doesn't
work either. If I can get that staff hidden, I think I will be able to
shave four pages off of the score.
2) How can I place instrument names above and to the left the first
system on the individual parts? See example (flute part):
http://ross.uber.name/comparsa-lecuona-1.pdf I already have \remove
Instrument_name_engraver in all the parts' books (line 306, etc.)

I normally put the \paper block right after the \header block in my

Hi Chip, It's nothing but negative attitudes here. There are over 1000 posts of mine in the archive; I think you'll find that any negative attitude is in direct proportion to the I want this, but am not willing to do any basic work to have it done factor in the post to which I'm replying. The same goes for everyone else I know of, *including* Graham who is by far the least diplomatic of the primary listers. In other words... Bring a positive attitude and a willingness to put in a little effort for what you get in return, and you'll get a positive response. Come to the list with all take and no give, and you'll reap what you sow. Why can't such sample be in the docs? Because apparently people like you -- who think such a sample is necessary -- won't put in the small amount of work required to add it to the docs: As far as I'm concerned this is the end of this thread, reply if you want, but I am finished with it.
