effect of \transposition on \quoteDuring
Hi, Why does the presence of \transposition change the effects of the following pairs of lines?

MIDI instrument ignored in 2.13.61 - bug?
Hello, if I set a MIDI instrument like this: \context Staff = upper << \set Staff.midiInstrument = "violin" \context Voice = "vupper" \uppervoice >> the violin plays only the very first note, after that it’s only the default Grand Piano. I didn’t find a bug report in the tracker WRT this. The manual uses... - #"violin" - \new Staff - \with {} ... but none of that makes a difference. In some strange cases (I couldn’t reproduce it), I get the instrument of one staff for the next one.

(http://lilypond.org/manuals.html) - in "Regular use" beneath "Snippets: short tricks and tips." please add the line : "LSR: all the snippets contributed by users." (with a link) - in the tool bar on top of the page, add a link "LSR" between "Snippets" and "FAQ" That would make the so valuable LSR content way more accessible for us users !

Vertical spacing for fixed y-offset of systems *calculated from top staff line*?
Hi, I'm looking to vertically lay out systems in a very rigid and regular way. (This is the method I documented a while back in 4.4.2 'Explicit staff and system positioning' using the Y-offset and alignment-distances attributes of line-break-system-details.) The challenge is that this method produces different visual results than it used to now that the new vertical spacing code has been added into the system. Examples are the easiest way to show the difference. Here's an example of explicit system positioning: %%% EX 1: EXPLICIT SYSTEM POSITIONING W/ JUMPING STAVES %%% \version "2.13.61" \paper { evenHeaderMarkup = \markup \fill-line { " " } indent = #0 oddHeaderMarkup = \markup \fill-line { " " } top-margin = 20\mm } \new Staff { %%% PAGE 1 \overrideProperty #"Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn" #'line-break-system-details #'((Y-offset . 0)) c'1 \pageBreak \overrideProperty #"Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn" #'line-break-system-details #'((Y-offset . 0)) c1 } %%% END EX 1 %%% Rendering example 1 shows two pages of music with one system per page. The thing to notice is that staves jump around on the page and appear at two different vertical positions on the two pages. Lily's visual output in cases like this used to be different. We can approximate the visual appearance produced by older versions of Lily by nulling out the y-extent of grobs that happen to occur above the top staff line of the system in question: %%% EX 2: EXPLICIT SYSTEM POSITIONING *WITHOUT* JUMPING STAVES W/ Y-EXTENT HACK %%% \version "2.13.61" \paper { evenHeaderMarkup = \markup \fill-line { " " } indent = #0 oddHeaderMarkup = \markup \fill-line { " " } top-margin = 20\mm } \layout { \context { \Score \override BarNumber #'Y-extent = ##f \override NoteHead #'Y-extent = ##f \override Script #'Y-extent = ##f } } \new Staff { %%% PAGE 1 \overrideProperty #"Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn" #'line-break-system-details #'((Y-offset . 0)) c'1 \pageBreak \overrideProperty #"Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn" #'line-break-system-details #'((Y-offset . 0)) c1 } %%% END EX 2 %%% Rendering example 2 shows the visual output that I want. But the problem is that nulling out the y-extent of grobs is a bad idea (as can be seen by adding accents, ottava spanners, text spanners and so on to the music in example 2 and watching how grobs fail to position correctly). It would appear that what's going on here is that Lily's assessment of what counts as the topmost edge of a system has changed over time: previously, the Y-offset attribute of line-break-system-details applied to the top staff line of the topmost staff in a system; now, the Y-offset attribute of line-break-system-details applies to the outermost envelope (skyline?) of the system. This makes sense. But I would really like to be able to reproduce the utterly regular vertical spacing of my previous scores using current versions of Lily. Is there any way to achieve the vertical layout of systems that I'm looking for with modern versions of Lily?

So when and if the bug is fixed the ability to write a theme in one instrument and quote it for any other instruments which play it at the same time in whatever will be available!? The effect is that \transpose will change the written pitches, but leave the sounding pitches the same. Quotes with \quoteDuring use the sounding pitches. I do not know a way to do what you want with \quoteDuring. Again from what you say shouldn't fixing the bug solve the problem? (I just use variables to hold short motives instead.) Yes, that's what I've done for years until I recently got comfortable with \quoteDuring and whenever the theme occurs again at some other time or in some other key. A similar issue must have been handled to make the function \transposedCueDuring, so that might serve as a model if any Scheme programmer (as many users seem to be) wants to find a solution. Maybe I will have time to do this this summer. This seems to me to be a required cousin of \quoteDuring.

I couldn't get your examples to compile, so I couldn't test them.
