lilypond-glyphs in other programs

2010-03-09 Thread Stefan Thomas
Dear community,
I would like to use single signs  of the lilypond-font (e.g. the sharp-sign)
in a text-programm, for example in open-office or in LaTex. I don't want to
make musical examples, but single signs in text, I need it for the
explanation of special symbols, like this way:

 The sign   % here I would like to input
 lilypond's symbol for the quartertone-sharp
  a quarter-tone higher than the written note.

Does someone know, how this can be done?

Hi Kieren,
Well, I'm clueless about how to help with your issue.  But congrats on

 Hi all,

 I write [and engrave] a lot of choral music.

 There's one big thing I want to do in Lilypond, and wanted to get some 
 opinions on the matter...

 In my choral music, there are often large sections of unison and two-part 
 writing, as well as four- and [complex] eight-part writing. That is to say, 
 often the music can be completely represented on a single staff, but usually 
 it needs two or three or four, and every once in a while it requires eight 
 (i.e., one staff per vocal part).

 In a perfect world, I would like to indicate [in the .ly code] where a Voice 
 *requires* its own Staff context, and then have Lilypond make the 
 Staff-generating [partcombine?] decisions automatically, in order to get the 
 best overall spacing. So (e.g.) if half-way through a system a unison section 
 would [need to] break into four staves, either Lilypond would back-quote 
 the unison music to fill the first half of the system, or insert a break at 
 that point and respace the section accordingly, so that the split happens 
 at the beginning of the new system. [I hope I've adequately explained what 
 I'm looking for.]

 Right now, I'm using a somewhat complex combination of \quoteDuring [drawing 
 from a unison variable] and manual breaks to accomplish this task. But I 
 was hoping there might be a way to get it automated, mostly or fully.

 Since it would impact horizontal as well as vertical spacing, I imagine that:
    1. The logic/algorithm/code would have to be in an engraver, and maybe 
 even in C++, as opposed to in a Scheme function.
    2. It might require multiple passes [like the old two-pass spacing macro].
    3. What I'm asking for might not be possible at all.

 Any suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated.

 Cheers,
 Kieren.

 p.s. At the U.S. premiere (and CD recording) of my Fantasy Variations this 
 past weekend in Arizona, I got more compliments on the score/parts -- yay, 
 Lilypond!

Sorry to carry on a monologue but...
I can even say that when I only write a single time signature like 3/4 in a
single variable the resulting TimeSig in midicomp is 4/4 yet.


Can you post a sample file?


No, I don't want! For the next release the Gigsaw will integrate
randomization. Kudos to Brett Stahlman who gives me a gvim function
which works flawlessly so far. What a song and dance! You'll be able to
destroy all the stuff! You're so strong. :-P
Well! Seriously see below. ( And keep in mind the randomization is a
real thing now)



This reminds me of an old thread,
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2009-02/msg00144.html,
where I couldn't verify the bug.

One thing to note is that the Time_signature_performer lives in the
Score context (unlike the Time_signature_engraver), so if you move it
to the Staff context (with the Timing_translator), you should see
separate time signatures in the midi output if you're typesetting
polymetric music.

Regards,
Neil


Keep cool. For standard midi output midicomp shows the right TimeSig.
The interesting thing is when you use Timing-translator in a *midi*
block. It seems layout block is not relevant.
There are 2 examples: the .ly file is written in 3/4.

1. Timing-translator-ex-min-1-midi-block
In this sample:
\context  {
%  \Score
%  \remove Timing_translator
}
is commented out
and
   \context { \DrumStaff
   \consists Timing_translator
 }
is active. I get the midicomp ascii file with a 4/4 TimeSig. (line 6)

2. Timing-translator-ex-min-2-midi-block
Here all is active
 \midi {
   \context {
 \Score
 \remove Timing_translator
 tempoWholesPerMinute = #(ly:make-moment 110 4)
 }

   \context { \DrumStaff
   \consists Timing_translator
 }
   }
and I get an ascii file without TimeSig. However if you look at the
timestamps you'll see 4 beats. (They start from 00 to 03.)
Notice the barcheck is commented out. Perhaps it's significant.
If you want others samples with a different config don't hesitate to
ask, it's so easy for me to get these ascii files. I'm your servant.
As I said previously I hope it isn't a bug. Anyway midi output is OK.
As if it was the most natural thing in the world Lilypond do all the
maths with brilliance.
Oh please, if you destroy all the stuff send me a post! :)

 Of course this doesn't quite work because all multi measure rests are
 moved and not just single whole measure rests.

 I've been messing with this:

 \override Staff.MultiMeasureRest #'extra-offset =
 #(lambda (grob)
  '(0 . -1))

 I only want to return '(0 . -1) if the multi measure rest length is
 the same as the length of a full bar. To get at the measure length I
 need to do something like (ly:context-property context 'measureLength
 #f). How can I get at the context from a callback function like the
 one above? or is there a better way to move all full measure rests
 down?

Try

\override RhythmicStaff.MultiMeasureRest #'staff-position = #0.01

There's a nasty hack in ly:multi-measure-rest::print which changes the
position of single full-bar rests if staff-position = #0 to ensure the
default position is effectively staff-position = #2; setting it very
slightly off tricks the code so it doesn't perform the shift.

 It's interesting to me that in this example the whole rest in the last
 measure works correctly:

That's because it uses a different print function (ly:rest::print).

I'm currently working on a LaTeX package that would allow to use Lilypond

Ok, not exactly sure what that means in this case but looking through the

So where's a good explanation?
 Also it sounds like (I hope I'm wrong) that you have to use the \override
etc and extra-offset for each symbol/word and I really need it globally.
And then is there somewhere that gives the font equivalents for
#(set-global-staff-size 25)
or any other for an example how to again globally alter the font size so
that it matches the lyric font size?  Since the global staff size seems to
determine the lyric font size.
Again, if I'm mislead please set me straight maybe I'm looking at this the
wrong way.

Thanks

 As I understand it, these kinds of things only work with extra-offset.

 Subject: text in staff

 I want to place test inside the staff lines
 from the manual it looks like I should use some form of
 \once \override TextScript #'script-priority = # %(some number here)

 but it's not giving me a result that I can understand/use.

 Should I try using some sort of 'padding' verbage or what?

 And I need to have markup {Text} be the same size as
 \addlyric.  But I don't understand how to figure out what the lyric size is
 I do have
 #(set-global-staff-size 25)

 Where do I look to figure this out

 Thanks

Re: RhythmicStaff Multimeasure Rests

 \override RhythmicStaff.MultiMeasureRest #'staff-position = #0.01

Thanks. That works great.

Now I just have to deal with
\context{\RemoveEmptyRhythmicStaffContext} killing my settings. I
remember following the discussion recently, but I couldn't find a bug.
Was one written?

It's especially annoying here.

If I put this in a common file included by both the score and the part:
\layout
{
  \context
  {
\RemoveEmptyRhythmicStaffContext
  }
  \context
  {
\RhythmicStaff
\override MultiMeasureRest #'staff-position = #0.01
  }
}

Then the score looks fine, but since the bass drum (or triangle or
other percussion instrument) rest for very long sections some of the
lines in the part are taken out.

The alternative is to move the RemoveEmptyRhythmicStaffContext to the
score file and duplicate the multimeasure rest stuff below it again.
This is what I'm doing. (Though I should probably put in some cues
which would also fix this).

The cleanest solution would be for either the
RemoveEmptyRhythmicStaffContext to not kill settings or if there is
only one staff in the score the RemoveEmptyRhythmicStaffContext would
just not remove anything (or both of course).

Really these are minor inconveniences. I just want to be sure bugs. Thanks.
