Multiple-staff ossia
Dear List, is there a way to create a multiple-staff ossia? I need to expand a divisi section in a string part score that lasts a couple of bars only. The basic idea would be to have a StaffGroup that starts in the middle of the page (at the point where the divisi section begins) and which end at the end of the divisi section. I tried the same solution that works for single-stave ossias as explained in the Documentation, but unfortunately that doesn't work (the main problem is that the bracket starts at the beginning of the line and also it was not possible to assign instrumentName and/or shordInstrumentName values to the ossia staves created that way). Thank you for any help, Ádám ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: tie to note inside double backslashing voicing
Thanks for your input. I've tried both methods and I have the same problem. When I add a cresc. to the measure, the spacing of my entire piece gets completely messed up. I don't understand why Lilypond won't allow me to create dynamics without destroying the spacing of my piece.

Laborejo Release 0.2 Announcement
Exactly one month after the first release, here is Laborejo 0.2! Laborejo, Esperanto for Workshop, is used to craft music through notation. It is a Lilypond GUI frontend, a MIDI creator and finally a tool collection to inspire and help you compose. It works by reducing music-redundancy and by seperating layout and data. The next release is scheduled for May, 8th. One month from now. Before you read the details make sure to connect to Laborejos Facebook, Twitter or Google Plus! https://www.facebook.com/Laborejo https://twitter.com/#!/Laborejo https://plus.google.com/b/116744898976321238325/ Screenshot (Laborejo and Lilypond, side by side): http://www.laborejo.org/images/screenshots/latestscreenshot.png This is the release of version 0.2 Download: https://github.com/nilsgey/Laborejo/tarball/0.2 Dependencies: http://www.laborejo.org/documentation Linux Instructions: Unpack, cd into the created directoy, execute: ./laborejo-qt.sh Then use the number- and cursor keys for immediate success! Check Help-Manual for navigational and note/rest entry keys. Everything else is in the menus. New since version 0.1: - Repeats, Alternate Ends and Jumps in various forms. The main Feature for this release. - Playback Trigger (Only reduce volume in the second repeat or Mute track if python weather module reports rain) - Master Track (Merges with every other Track. Use to structure your piece, make global changes, change tempo etc.) - Various Commands like Join Selection to Chord and Add Octave to Chord/Selection - The usual breadbutter bugfixing and improving. Most important known problems: * This is Alpha Grade Software. Don't use for long-term work. However, the produced midis and PDFs will last forever. * There is no built-in jack midi output yet. You have to export midi files. * Documentation is nearly non-existent. Have fun, it would be nice to hear from you!

Bug: lyrics vertical spacing and dynamics with extra-offset
Dear list I am writing down the Tenor part of Mendelssohn’s Elias (Elijah) and stumbled upon the following, which clearly is a bug (to me). I attached the three bars of the piece in which it appears. Notice that both the upper and the lower voice contain a Dynamic mark. The two marks have an extra-offset each to get them closer to the staff. In the first score, the lyrics are put nicely close to the staff. But as soon as the lower lyrics span across the space where the dynamic mark would be without the offset, both lyrics seem to ignore the space that became available by using the extra-offset. Thus, the distance to the staff increases again. Is that a bug? Or am I making a mistake here? PS.: Because there has been no reply to it and others also reported problems with ML delivery, did you get my mail about a regression concerning order of MIDI tracks (from 3. April)? -- Gruß | Greetings | Qapla' Please do not use my email addresses within any Facebook service. I hate being bi-polar.

But extra-offset should be used only as a last resort, as the extra displacement is made only _after_ _all_ typesetting is finished. So extra space is ignored.

Re: tie to note inside double backslashing voicing
Hi. The problem I am having now is different. When I attempt to add a hairpin decres the spacing of my entire piece gets corrupted. I've attached a screencap to illustrate.
