Re: Trillspanner line thickness
The zigzag line is typeset by LilyPond using a number of copies of the scripts.trill_element glyph from the so-called Feta font (see http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond/The-Feta-font#The-Feta-font). Therefore, your only chance to change the thickness is to change the font size. As you have noted, just changing the font-size property of the TextSpanner object will also affect the tr indication, but the following trick can be used to compensate the font size of the tr: \override TrillSpanner #'font-size = #-3 \override TrillSpanner #'bound-details #'left #'text = #(make-translate-scaled-markup '(0.0 . -1.0) (make-fontsize-markup 3 (make-musicglyph-markup scripts.trill))) Note that the argument 3 to make-fontsize-markup has to match the -3 in the font-size setting. /Mats Jonathan Wilkes wrote: Hello, I'm getting to the end of formatting a score, and I just need some hints on changing the thickness of the zigzag line after trills. I've tried zigzag-width, thickness, and everything else that looked promising but with no results. I didn't use font-size because I want the trill sign to stay the same size. Is what I want to do possible?

Re: text in horizontal space between staves
Hi Robin, thanks for your help. The other day I found a different approach here: http://www.mail-archive.com/lilypond-user@gnu.org/msg51078.html. This comes even closer to my original intention: \version 2.13.3 \markup { \line { \score { \new StaffGroup \new Staff { c'1 } \new Staff { c'1 } \layout {} } \hspace #9.0 \center-column \lower #7 {\line {D.S. al} \line { \musicglyph #scripts.coda \raise #-0.5 - \hspace #0.5 \musicglyph #scripts.coda }} \score { \new GrandStaff \new Staff { c'1 } \new Staff { c'1 } \layout {} } } } 1) Is it possible to manipulate the width of the gap between the systems? I would like to reduce the width. 2) How do I have to proceed to integrate this construct in a template such as: upper = \relative c'' { \clef treble \key c \major \time 4/4 a4 b c d } lower = \relative c { \clef bass \key c \major \time 4/4 a2 c } \score { \new PianoStaff \set PianoStaff.instrumentName = #Piano \new Staff = upper \upper \new Staff = lower \lower \layout { } \midi { } } I actually would like to typeset some music before and after the gap between the systems.

Well, this makes the markup narrower and then you start to see that we had no horizontal centering. Using a breathing sign instead of a note head makes it easy to anchor the markup in the middle of the measure. By default you get a half-measure gap on either side. \stopStaff s2 \once \override BreathingSign #'text = #dsalcodacoda \once \override BreathingSign #'Y-offset = 0 % vertical anchor \once \override BreathingSign #'X-extent = #'(-1 . 1) % change side gaps \breathe s2 \startStaff And the markup must be centered both horizontally and vertically: dsalcodacoda = \markup \vcenter \override #'(baseline-skip . 2) \center-column { \line { D.S. al } \line { \musicglyph #scripts.coda - \hspace #0.5 \musicglyph #scripts.coda } } Cheers, Robin -- Jetzt kostenlos herunterladen: Internet Explorer 8 und Mozilla Firefox 3 - sicherer, schneller und einfacher! http://portal.gmx.net/de/go/chbrowser ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Horizontal note spacing
The only way I found of adding extra space before the arpeggiated chord in this example was to have a hidden voice with some notes to affect the spacing - I had a look at the manual section on horizontal spacing and tried a few things, but this was the only thing I tried that made a difference. Is this the only solution? %%% \version 2.13.3 treble = \relative c' { a4 cis\arpeggio | g' cis, | } bass = \relative c { e a,4 a e a,\arpeggio | bes d, a a e a, | } hidden = \relative c { \hideNotes c4 c } \score { \context Staff = guitar { \set Staff.connectArpeggios = ##t \clef treble_8 \key d \minor \time 2/4 \context Voice = 1 { \voiceOne \treble } \context Voice = 2 { \voiceTwo \bass } \context Voice = 3 { \voiceThree \hidden } } \layout { \context { \Staff \consists Span_arpeggio_engraver } } } %%% Nick Payne inline: withouthidden.pnginline: withhidden.png___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Horizontal note spacing
Hi Nick, Is this the only solution? My preference would be to adjust the padding or X-extent of the arpeggio directly, e.g. \version 2.13.3 arpspace = \once \override Staff.Arpeggio #'X-extent = #'(-13 . 1) treble = \relative c' { a4 \arpspace cis\arpeggio | g' cis, |} bass = \relative c { e a,4 a e a,\arpeggio | bes d, a a e a, | } hidden = \relative c { \hideNotes c4 c } \score { \context Staff = guitar { \set Staff.connectArpeggios = ##t \clef treble_8 \key d \minor \time 2/4 \context Voice = 1 { \voiceOne \treble } \context Voice = 2 { \voiceTwo \bass } } \layout { \context { \Staff \consists Span_arpeggio_engraver } } } Hope this helps!

I guess you'll have to wait until GUB is working again. If I don't at least get it bootstrapping within the first hour tomorrow, I'll try another approach to hacking it together.

IMNSHO, this is Not A Good Idea (tm). The Feta font is only a tiny tiny part of what makes LilyPond excellent. And the Lily language really is not so complex. Even so, that's no reason to abstain from making the Feta font available/usable in Sibelius/Finale. When I started using LilyPond, I was writing an opera and I already had engraved about 200 pages in Sibelius. Then I met LilyPond. - For a while I tried to continue using Sibelius and importing the Feta font (just like you). That didn't work. Why not? If it's just a matter of matching the staff line weights to the font, as was mentioned in another email, that seems trivial. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
