editorial brackets
Hello, Does anyone know if it is possible in LilyPond to add brackets around an accidental that has been added by the editor of a music piece, but is not in the original score? I can't find it in the manual. Thanks in advance Thijs ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Installing LilyPond fonts for use in programs under Windows 7
This is my first post, but I've used LilyPond for a number of projects and love the beautiful output. I am also learning to love her possibilities for shortcuts and tweaking output, although some possibilities are more lovable more than others. (I'll have a question or two about defining markup commands at some stage.) That's not my question now though, which is: Is it possible to install the Feta/Emmentaler font(s?) in Windows 7 so that characters become available in applications running under Windows? I tried simply double clicking on the Emmentaler otf files, with the result that they got installed according to the Windows Control Panel's Fonts feature, and the font name appeared in Windows programs' font lists, but the glyphs just didn't appear. Is there some other way (i.e. without installing the fonts) of straightforwardly including LilyPond glyphs in files prepared using Windows programs? I only want to insert isolated musical characters from time to time, e.g. in MS Word documents, but it kind of offends me using Brand X musical fonts in order to do that. And by the way, what is the relationship between Feta and Emmentaler? I have searched the documentation and the user forum as best I could and didn't succeed in finding answers. My apologies if I've missed them as a beginner. If that is the case, I'd be grateful for a (hopefully polite-ish) suggestion as to where I should look. I'm using LilyPond 2.14.2 (or maybe 2.16, as from tomorrow ...). Philip ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Hide time signature numerator?
I'm putting together worksheets for children, where various pieces of notation are missing, for them to fill in. One thing I'd like to do is hide the top half of the time signature, but don't know how to do this. The snippets repository comes close - http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Search?q=timesignature - but my knowledge of Lilypond is stretched by those examples, and so would be grateful for help! ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: uniform-stretching results in too much space after barline
Hi, On Thu, May 3, 2012 at 7:56 AM, James pkx1...@gmail.com wrote: I couldn't work out what your first attachment (with the slur) had to do with the PDF, bt anyway try Looks that i seriously failed to explain myself. The small png was a real-life example of a triplet spacing problem i've encountered. It was a screenshot from a score i'm working on. I've figured out that when i use uniform-stretching, the problem with bad triplets goes away, but there are some side-effects. I had to post some example code to demonstrate these side-effects - this was the code in my message, and the output of this code was attached as pdf. The example was atrificial and contrived, but it demostrated the problem: setting uniform-stretching to ##t results in too much space after the barlines. (basically change the \time an add a ragged right) and it seems counterintuitive, but the two are definitely different in this regard. To be perfectly honest I like the space, and when you cram the notes in the space does seem to be even - try repeat unfold 32 for instance. I cannot see any difference - if that matters. Sorry, but i don't understand what you mean at all. Since my example was artificial, changing anything can break it (meaning that the example will no longer demonstrate the problem). Your code doesn't solve the problem, it is simply not affected by the bug. A simplified snippet below. I also think this may qualify as a bug, so i'm cross-posting to bugreports. cheers, Janek \version 2.15.36 \markup uniform-stretching results in too much space after barline \score { \repeat unfold 16 gis'8 \layout { ragged-right = ##f \override Score.SpacingSpanner #'uniform-stretching = ##t } } \markup compile this to see how the output should look like: \score { \repeat unfold 16 gis'8 \layout { ragged-right = ##f } } ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: Hide time signature numerator?
Hi James, http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=609 instead? looks quite straightforward … as long as you also add an appropriate offset, so that the single-digit time signature remains where it's supposed to (i.e., top-aligned with the staff). =) Cheers, Kieren. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Hide time signature numerator?
Hi James (both), Except that the original request was to *hide* the top number and just show the denominator... D'oh! I riffed on the response rather than the original post… Bad Kieren!

Two notes on the same staff line or space, beamed together, where one is a tremolo and the other is not is a fairly specific special case :) (I know I can tweak the beam, just think I shouldn't have to.) There's lots of parameters controlling beam-setting in general; maybe some adjustments would be an improvement overall. I had a look at the internals reference, but couldn't make heads or tails of it. Tweaking the parameters that penalize this or that depends on a lot of background information on the beaming algorithms... I guess.
