It almost certainly won't be Frescobaldi it'll be where/how windows
has installed your later version of LilyPond.

Install LilyPond as normal and then open a 'cmd' prompt (if you don't
know what that is then click on the start menu in the task bar and
either look for the 'run' menu option and type cmd or you can search
for 'cmd.exe' and open it.

Then from that command prompt type

path

This will list all the 'paths' to the applications you have installed.
It'll be a long list, and you should (hopefully) see something like

C;/Program Files/LilyPond/usr/bin; in there (I may have got that
slightly inaccurate - I am doing this from memory) but you will see
'LilyPond' somewhere.

If you don't see it then this is the problem and you will need to add
it manually.

I am about to leave for work, but if you still have problems or no one
else answers I'll be around in an hour or so.

Sounds like Frescobaldi does not find your new lilypond install in the
directory where it used to be, maybe it has been installed in another
directory.

Go to Preferences - LilyPond preferences. Highlight the first entry at
the right, push Edit and then push the file browser dialog button at
tthe right of 'lilypond command' box.

Once there, find c:\Program Files\whatever\whatever\lilypond.exe

where 'whatever' is something like \usr\bin\ , I'm sorry but I do not
remember exactly (I am not a windows user)

Once found, click 'Open', OK, OK. Test your whole set by compiling
some music. Good luck!

Re: separating design from pure score

2012-03-15 Thread Stjepan Horvat
Hello all..thank you for you anwsers..i really appreciate it..It's not
exactly what i wanted..but it helps me figure out more what i want and
what will be my solution..!

David Kastrup leads in this direction what i'm trying ta achive..The
diference form Hans Aikema is that i want to include music in a
diffrent file which i compile afterwords..The reason for that is that
i want to define music as is..Becouse each song is uniq and
unchangable..So i dont ever have to change the music file.

For Example:
1. I want the score to be minimalistic and to be sufficient in itself.

= score.ly =
\verison 2.14.2
\header { title = TITLE composer = COMPOSER }
mymusic = \relative c' { c4 d e f \mark \default g }
mylyrics = \lyricmode { c d e f g }
mychords = \chordmode { c1 c4 }
\score {

\new ChordNames { \mychords }
\new Staff { \mymusic }
\addlyrics { \mylyrics }

}
 end of score.ly 

Minimalistic as i said. Maybe even without \mark \default.

So now in design.ly i would set the fonts and paper and whatever would
be static in project period. I think the layout should work here.

And on the end.

 master.ly 
\include ./desing.ly
\include ./score.ly

%now here should go the paddings for this specifig song couse every
song looks difrent and has diffrent bar numbers..Now i would want to
maybe use \break command but inside the score..So here comes my
problem. Becouse the score block is included while including score.ly
(i would want only the variable to be included) i can't make a mark
blok where i would define simple marks and bar brakes.

paper {
markup-system-spacing #'padding = #5
markup-system-spacing #'stretchability = #5
score-system-spacing #'padding = #5
last-bottom-spacing #'padding = #5
score-markup-spacing #'padding = #5
top-system-spacing #'padding = #17.5
}

marks = {
  \set Score.markFormatter = #format-mark-box-barnumbers
  \hideNotes
  R1 \break
  \bar ||
  \mark \default
  \unHideNotes
  \bar |.
}

\score {

\new ChordNames { \mychords }
\new Staff {  \mymusic \marks }
\addlyrics { \mylyrics }

}

 end of master.ly 

I would only compile the maste.ly file..

I think i made myself clear..:) Thanks for further guidence.

 If I understand your request correctly you're looking for a similar
 structure as what I'm working with for generating beamerslides of songs
 including their music. In that case the \include command is your friend.

 What I have in my projects:

 format/BaseBeamerslideDesign.ly
 contains
 - a \paper section containing lots of formatting settings
 - a \layout setting containing lots of formatting settings
 - an include for yet another lilypond file containing useful scheme
 functions such as the override-color-for-allgrobs scheme funtion I found in
 the LSR: http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=443
 - variable definitions for a music staff (muziekbalk) and its associated
 lyrics (verstekst):
 muziekbalk = { \new Staff \new Voice = myMelody { \melodie } }
 verstekst = {\new Lyrics \lyricsto myMelody { \tekst }}

 format/BeamerRegular.ly
 contains
 - an include of format\BaseBeamerslideDesign.ly
 - a Score block combining the variables defined in BaseBeamerSlideDesign
 into an actual Score and override of the grob-colors to get colored output:
 === format/BeamerRegular.ly sample ===
 \include BaseBeamerslideDesign.ly

 \score {
 
            \applyContext #(override-color-for-all-grobs white)
            \muziekbalk
            \verstekst

 }
 === end of format/BeamerRegular.ly ===

 Then any song requiring the beamer slide format:
 - a \header block
 - a variable definition called 'melodie' (which is refered to in the
 format\BaseBeamerslideDesign.ly mentioned above) containing the melody of
 the song
 - a variable definition called 'tekst' which is refered to in the
 format\BaseBeamerslideDesign.ly mentioned above) containing the lyrics of
 the song
 - an include of the format/BeamerRegular.ly

 e.g.:
 === MySong.ly sample ===
 \version 2.15.26
 \header {
    title = Just some sample song
 }
 melodie = \relative c'' {
    \clef treble
    \time 4/4
    \key c \major
    c d e f \bar |.
 }
 tekst = \lyricmode {
  this is a song
 }
 \include format/BeamerGewoon.ly
 === end of MySong.ly sample ===

I have realised that *if* you do not have LilyPond in your 'path' (see

slightly different depending if you are running Windows XP or Windows

What I would do because I forgot we had added this to our instructions

See 'Running on the command line' section. This tells you how to check
and configure.

I do not know your technical ability (so sorry if I am patronizing you

Combine \default rehearsal mark with another mark

2012-03-15 Thread Siska Ádám

Combining lyrics lines

2012-03-15 Thread Reedmace Star
Dear Lilypond users,

I am typesetting a musical-theater style song, with the parts of several 
singers appearing on the same staff.

For unrelated reasons, I want to use a separate Voice context for each 
singer, even though the melodies usually don't overlap. The lyrics are 
defined separately for each voice, too.

Here is a simplified example of what I'm doing:


\version 2.14.2


  \new Staff 
\new Voice = a { f'4 g' r2 | s1 }
\new Voice = b { s1| a'2 g' }
  
  \new Lyrics \lyricsto a \lyricmode { may -- be }
  \new Lyrics \lyricsto b \lyricmode { that the }



Now, the lyrics to a and b appear on separate lines, like this:

 maybe
 that the

Instead, I would like to see them combined on one line whereever 
possible, like this:

 maybe   that the

Lilypond 2.12.3 did this by default. Is there a way to achieve it in 
newer versions?


As mentioned before, the melodies usually don't overlap, so it would 
probably be sufficient to overlay both Lyrics contexts in the same 
vertical space.  I naively attempted to do this by putting both into a 
StaffGroup and then setting their Y-extents to zero, but this had no 
effect; neither had various experiments with the staff-staff-spacing 
property of the StaffGroup or the Lyrics contexts.


I also considered using a single Lyrics context and associatedVoice:


\version 2.14.2


  \new Staff 
\new Voice = a { f'4 g' r2 | s1 }
\new Voice = b { s1| a'2 g' }
  
  \new Lyrics \lyricsto a {
  \lyricmode { may -- be }
  \set associatedVoice = b
  \lyricmode { that the }
  }



This fails, I guess, because of the requirement to change the associated 
voice one syllable early (2.1.1)?  While that would be easy to fix in 
this minimal example, it would be inconvenient in the actual score, 
where the lyrics are stored in separate variables defined outside the 
\score block.


Any other ideas?


Thanks and best regards,

Reedmace Star

 Hmm?  IIRC to use the LilyPond method you don't need to transcribe
 the entire score, just the fragment you want to quote.  Be sure to add
 appropriate number of skips to have it appear at the right moment.

 In any case, this seems to me like a fairly serious defect. I hope
 it's on the list for 2.16.

 I'm sorry if it will sound harsh, but compared to some other things i
 definitely won't call it serious...  And it's not on the list for
 2.16, unless you pay someone to fix it (i recommend David Kastrup).  I
 hope this won't discourage you, but i don't expect it to be on 2.18
 list, too - i guess it will be fixed in, like, 2 years or so.  Our
 development resources are *really that limited*.  So, please seriously
 consider fixing it yourself (we will provide basic guidance to you) or
 paying David.

Bugs that manifest themselves on proprietary software only (and it
sounds like it is a problem with a proprietary player) are not something
I could reproduce, so while I thank you for your recommendation, this
would not be a task I would have the means to tackle.

wrong beaming

2012-03-15 Thread luis jure

hello list,

i have a problem with beaming when combining a sixteenth notes triplet
with straight 16ths.
 
without any kind of tweaks, the following code produces the output in the
attached image:

\relative c' {
\time 2/4
c16 c \times 2/3 { c8 c16 }
\times 2/3 { c8 c16 } c16 c }

as you see, lilypond behaves differently if the triplet is in the first
part of the quarter note, or in the second. in both cases the beaming is
wrong.

i guess this is related to issues that have been discussed before. i tried
both the latest stable (2.14.2) and the latest unstable or development
version. the results are similar.

is there a simple tweak to get the correct output?

thanks,

 In the following example the left hand gets rhythmically augmented.
 What screwy thing am I doing?
 This score boilerplate was generated using LilypondTool and I removed the
 irrelevant parts.


In the absence of an explicit duration, LilyPond will continue to use the
last duration given it.  So all the notes in the new Staff context are
assigned a dotted half times 2.  Make the first note in the LH context a
c4

Variables: structure vs layout

2012-03-15 Thread James Harkins
I'm getting a bit confused about the use of variables to reflect the structure 
of the music, or the distribution of notes between different voices etc.

The passage where I'm struggling with this right now is for one instrument*. 
The passage has three voices, which I finally decided to split onto two staves 
(but the beginning is simple enough to put on one staff, using 
\RemoveEmptyStaffContext and \override VerticalAxisGroup #'remove-first = ##t).

After it goes to two staves, I have drones and bass notes in one staff. The 
bass (though not very low) is there only sometimes. I see a couple of options 
to write it in ly:

- Write a variable for the drones, with \voiceOne and \oneVoice interspersed 
where needed.

- Write lots of variables for the drones, one for each bit where the voice 
needs to change, and lay them out in the staff block, e.g.  \oneVoice \droneA 
\voiceOne \droneB etc

The latter may have the advantage of putting all the voice of assignments in 
one place (the score), but then the variables are too fragmentary to be 
meaningful to read.

I guess it's a fairly vague question. I guess the best way to narrow it down is 
-- especially asking experienced users -- what level of atomization seems to 
work the best for variables? Can you estimate a rough guideline where breaking 
the variables down further becomes more cumbersome than it's worth?

Thanks,
James

great, thank you. i see, however, that 2.12.3 was not quite correct in the
second case: the beamlet belonging to the triplet sixteenth should be
pointing to the left, and not beamed together with the straight 16th. 


Use manual beaming?

yes, manual beaming solved the first quarter note: 

\relative c' {
\time 2/4
c16[ c \times 2/3 { c8 c16] }
\times 2/3 { c8 c16 } c16 c }

but i still don't know how to correct the second quarter note (steven's
suggestion gives beaming by eight notes, that i don't find satisfactory).

i know i saw once a solution to this, but i can't find where...

Hi guys,

For whatever reason, Fresco was not showing the full path to LilyPond.

I think this is a reflection of a solution to issue 1948.

The windows installer no longer adds a path entry (by design), so the user
will need to add their own path in the future.  Perhaps this should be
part of the Frescobaldi documentation.

You can always manually override the beaming:

You never say what correct output you want.  If you want it to be beamed

Manual bars: PDF and MIDI have different opinion on melismas

2012-03-15 Thread Frank Steinmetzger
Dear list

I just discovered that 2.14 produces different lyrics for PDF and MIDI output,
when there are manual beams. Is this intentional?

A minimal example is attached. Note that, in the PDF, the text three and
four appears as expected under the notes, whereas in the MIDI, the notes on
three and are regarded as a melisma.

At first I thought it a regression over 2.12, but then found out that 2.12 did
the same thing and I never noticed the errors in my old MIDIs.

Thanks, David.  I actually figured this out about 2 minutes after I posted.

Some time ago someone posted a proposal for best practices on here-- one of

Re: separating design from pure score

2012-03-15 Thread Urs Liska

Hi Stjepan,

sorry that I don't have the time to really go through this thread (so I 
might misunderstand sth).


But I think you should separate your music variables from your score 
definition, so you can \include them separately:


music.ly
myMusic = { ... }

score.ly
\score {
\new Staff 
  \myMusic
  \myMarks

}


Then you can have your master file like:

\include music.ly
myMarks = { ... }
\include score.ly

Does that help?

Hello all..thank you for you anwsers..i really appreciate it..It's not
exactly what i wanted..but it helps me figure out more what i want and
what will be my solution..!

David Kastrup leads in this direction what i'm trying ta achive..The
diference form Hans Aikema is that i want to include music in a
diffrent file which i compile afterwords..The reason for that is that
i want to define music as is..Becouse each song is uniq and
unchangable..So i dont ever have to change the music file.

For Example:
1. I want the score to be minimalistic and to be sufficient in itself.

= score.ly =
\verison 2.14.2
\header { title = TITLE composer = COMPOSER }
mymusic = \relative c' { c4 d e f \mark \default g }
mylyrics = \lyricmode { c d e f g }
mychords = \chordmode { c1 c4 }
\score {

\new ChordNames { \mychords }
\new Staff { \mymusic }
\addlyrics { \mylyrics }
}
 end of score.ly 

Minimalistic as i said. Maybe even without \mark \default.

So now in design.ly i would set the fonts and paper and whatever would
be static in project period. I think the layout should work here.

And on the end.

 master.ly 
\include ./desing.ly
\include ./score.ly

%now here should go the paddings for this specifig song couse every
song looks difrent and has diffrent bar numbers..Now i would want to
maybe use \break command but inside the score..So here comes my
problem. Becouse the score block is included while including score.ly
(i would want only the variable to be included) i can't make a mark
blok where i would define simple marks and bar brakes.

paper {
markup-system-spacing #'padding = #5
markup-system-spacing #'stretchability = #5
score-system-spacing #'padding = #5
last-bottom-spacing #'padding = #5
score-markup-spacing #'padding = #5
top-system-spacing #'padding = #17.5
}

marks = {
   \set Score.markFormatter = #format-mark-box-barnumbers
   \hideNotes
   R1 \break
   \bar ||
   \mark \default
   \unHideNotes
   \bar |.
}

\score {

\new ChordNames { \mychords }
\new Staff {  \mymusic \marks}
\addlyrics { \mylyrics }
}

 end of master.ly 

I would only compile the maste.ly file..

I think i made myself clear..:) Thanks for further guidence.

If I understand your request correctly you're looking for a similar
structure as what I'm working with for generating beamerslides of songs
including their music. In that case the \include command is your friend.

What I have in my projects:

format/BaseBeamerslideDesign.ly
contains
- a \paper section containing lots of formatting settings
- a \layout setting containing lots of formatting settings
- an include for yet another lilypond file containing useful scheme
functions such as the override-color-for-allgrobs scheme funtion I found in
the LSR: http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=443
- variable definitions for a music staff (muziekbalk) and its associated
lyrics (verstekst):
muziekbalk = { \new Staff \new Voice = myMelody { \melodie } }
verstekst = {\new Lyrics \lyricsto myMelody { \tekst }}

format/BeamerRegular.ly
contains
- an include of format\BaseBeamerslideDesign.ly
- a Score block combining the variables defined in BaseBeamerSlideDesign
into an actual Score and override of the grob-colors to get colored output:
=== format/BeamerRegular.ly sample ===
\include BaseBeamerslideDesign.ly

\score {

\applyContext #(override-color-for-all-grobs white)
\muziekbalk
\verstekst
}
=== end of format/BeamerRegular.ly ===

Then any song requiring the beamer slide format:
- a \header block
- a variable definition called 'melodie' (which is refered to in the
format\BaseBeamerslideDesign.ly mentioned above) containing the melody of
the song
- a variable definition called 'tekst' which is refered to in the
format\BaseBeamerslideDesign.ly mentioned above)

Frenched score with glissandi

2012-03-15 Thread Siska Ádám
Dear List,


I'd like to forcefully remove a staff from an orchestral score at a given 
point. Here's the scenario:

There are 6 violas playing in 2 staves (Vle 1-3 in the first and Vle 4-6 in the 
second). From some point, all the violas play the same material, so I'd like to 
remove one of the staves to avoid duplications. However, I can't find out how 
to achieve this. I enabled 'frenched spacing' with \RemoveEmptyStaves, but it 
seems that the hidden notes that end the glissandi (created with \hideNotes) 
will keep the staff 'alive', as in the attached example.

(Note that this example is a minimal extract, it doesn't contain the rest of 
the orchestra, however, there's a dummy timeline and a dummy first page 
inserted, to simulate the actual situation).

Does anybody have an idea about how to activate the frenched spacing in this 
specific case?


Thanks,
Ádám

 Search for centering the new Lyrics thread by Keith OHara, from

Thank you, yes, that was exactly what I needed.

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2010-12/msg00674.html

For reference, this is my example fixed:


\version 2.14.2

\layout {
  \context {
\Lyrics
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'nonstaff-nonstaff-spacing
   #'minimum-distance = ##f
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'nonstaff-unrelatedstaff-spacing
   #'minumum-distance = ##f
\override LyricText #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-0.6 . 2.0)
  }
}


  \new Staff 
\new Voice = a { f'4 g' r2 | s1 }
\new Voice = b { s1| a'2 g' }
  
  \new Lyrics \lyricsto a \lyricmode { may -- be }
  \new Lyrics \lyricsto b \lyricmode { that the }

Re: Point-and-click on Frescobaldi?

2012-03-15 Thread Father Gordon Gilbert
Yes it should.  Especially for us non-geeks who understand a bit of
this kind of thing.  We need to know where to click and exactly what
to type.

Blessings,

Hi guys,

For whatever reason, Fresco was not showing the full path to LilyPond.
 Never had this problem before, but when I put it in there, all
worked!

 I think this is a reflection of a solution to issue 1948.

 The windows installer no longer adds a path entry (by design), so the user
 will need to add their own path in the future.  Perhaps this should be
 part of the Frescobaldi documentation.

 Thanks,

 Carl

Re: moving rhythmic dots down

2012-03-15 Thread -Eluze

please always reply to the list!


Just a quick question -- I'm making a glissando that goes across several
unstemmed noteheads; I need to move any rhythmic dots down, so that the
glissando doesn't obscure them. What's the proper override for this?


Eluze wrote:
 
 use \dotsDown (or \voiceTwo )
 

Jeffrey Trevino wrote:
 
 Some questions about this: Why does \voiceTwo have the same effect as
 \dotsDown?
 
\dotsDown just directs dots below the staff line while \voiceTwo (or
\voiceFour) directs all items down (stems, dots, slurs, ties, phrasing
slurs, dynamics, text spanners and tuplet brackets,…)  - it's up to you to
decide what you really want.

Jeffrey Trevino wrote:
 
 Also, moving the dots down has resolved the case in which the glissando
 line moves up from an initial notehead; however, if the line needs to go
 down, the problem is different. I either need to move the dots down even
 further, or I need to invert the stems and then move the dots up. Is there
 a /dotsUp for this new case?
 
 
maybe you should provide a small example of what you are trying to do and
where there are problems - that makes it easier to find solutions!

 I guess it's a fairly vague question. I guess the best way to narrow it
down is -- especially asking experienced users -- what level of
atomization seems to work the best for variables?

I'd use a variable for each voice undoubtedly. Use spacing rests as a
padding.

Re: [Frescobaldi] Re: ANN: Frescobaldi 2.0.4

On Wed, Mar 14, 2012 at 1:18 PM, Wilbert Berendsen wbs...@xs4all.nl wrote:
 Tab and Shift-tab handle the indent, Ctrl+I inserts a plain Tab.

Yeah, I think Ctrl-I as in re-indent the selected part was a
LilyPondTool/jEdit thing.

Speaking of confusing shortcuts: Ctrl-D used to mean comment this
line (that's the default in Kate I think), now it means Delete -
I've inadvertently lost a few lines because of that :-)

 To keep Frescobaldi simple its indenting defaults to the
 LilyPond-recommended way of indenting. But you can override the
 behaviour by placing document variables in the document (see
 manual-editor-document variables).

Wow. Wouldn't have thought of that.

 I put much love in the PDF view to make it better than the old one (I
 hope ;-) You can copy images: drag a square with the right button or
 Shift-left button, and then choose Copy to Image in the context menu
 or the Edit menu. It even copies images in a specified DPI setting,
 instead of the current scale! You can drag both the image or the
 image's file, and also specify the antialiasing, background color
 (which in the Copy to Image dialog defaults to white :-) and whether
 to auto-crop the image.

OK. I had missed the menu entry.

 And did you notice the magnifying glass? Ctrl+Click in the Music View!

I did not. I only used Ctrl-mousewheel (it wouldn't have occured to me ;)

 The old pdf view did not support finding point and click objects (due to
 Okular limitations), but the new one has: Ctrl+J highlights the object
 the text cursor is at.

Yes, that must be the most welcome new feature.

Plus, since I rarely have a mouse (I'm running ratpoison these days),
I've come to realize that Frescobaldi can be easily be controlled with
the keyboard only!

 I tried to make the config pages simple and not too crowded. But I think
 an 'Editor' page is needed, with settings related to editing behaviour,
 indenting etc.

That's what I'd be expecting to see, indeed.

 Please take a look at the snippets manager, it is quite powerful and
 also powers the File-New from template menu. It has support for python
 scripts as well and some nice default snippets. A larger library could
 be put on the Frescobaldi website.

Yeah, I should consider using it for quick tuplets and stuff.

 There is: see www.frescobaldi.org/download . The Windows installer
 works very well! I have no Mac to test and build a Mac installer.
 But users are using Frescobaldi on Mac OS X and it works.

Cool. I hope to see a Mac application available for download soon!

 Yes there are many French translators, and I can't see which which
 translations are the best. It would be nice if someone with good
 understanding of LilyPond and Frescobaldi and translating desktop
 applications could 'govern' the French translation :-)

Well, I'd be happy to :-)

Keep up the good work!

Cheers,
V.

Similar, or identical?

well, identical is a very strong word... but as far as i can see, yes, the
results are exactly the same in 2.14.2 and in 2.15.33.


You never say what correct output you want.

sorry about that, please see the attached file.
it's the result of this code (thanks, mark):

\version 2.15.32

\relative c' {
\set baseMoment = #(ly:make-moment 1 8)
\set subdivideBeams = ##t
\time 2/4
c16[ c \times 2/3 { c8 c16] }
\times 2/3 { c8 c16 } c16 c

what other options would be considered correct?

yes! thank you very much. (when the triplet is in the second half of the
quarter note, i still have to hard-code a manual beam, though. works great
when the triplet is in the first half).

Re: Add more space between arbitrary groups of notes

2012-03-15 Thread Kieren MacMillan
Hi Svetlana:

 I want more space only between phrasing slurs, not between each note

What about this solution?

\version 2.15.32

\layout {
  \context {
\Score
\override BreathingSign #'transparent = ##t
\override BreathingSign #'X-extent = #'(0 . 1)
  }
}

theMusic = \relative c' {
  c\( d e f
  g\) \breathe g f\( e
  d e\) \breathe d c
}

\score { \theMusic }

Hope this helps!
Kieren.
