Forgive me, in pursuing an answer to your inquiry I
inadvertently digressed from your actual question.

To put clefs in your song title, you would:

\header {
  title = \markup { "Song" \musicglyph #"clefs.G" "Title" \musicglyph 
#"clefs.F" }
} % header

Re: Changing quarter tone notation

[Arle Lommel]

Thanks Keith,

I appreciate the answer. It was what I was afraid of. Since I really don't know 
Scheme well enough to hack things like that, I guess I'll stick with the 
default glyphs. I wanted to avoid articulations since that means the underlying 
tones in the Lilypond would be incorrect (e.g., c instead of cih), which would 
cause problems for conversion later on if I find a way to do what I want 
without a workaround. Since this was a "(very) nice to have" rather than a 
"can't live without it" request, I'll hold on it, but thank you very much for 
looking at it and trying to help.

Best regards,

Arle

Adding symbols to titles and headers

Hello!

Just a general question about something I cannot find in the manuals
anywhere...

How do I insert, lets say, a bass and treble clef into the title or
subtitle of a piece? I am building a worksheet and wish to use the symbols
instead of the full text.

Pointers? I've done every possible search in the manuals for this
operation, and I am coming up short.

I’ve noticed this too; the composer and any other right-justified
field will only come over as far as the center of the printed area.
When there is no conflicting left-justified field, the right-justified
fields should move as far left as necessary.

Composer header field with large staff size

[Nick Payne]

With a large staff size and a longish composer field, the composer name
runs off the right-hand edge of the page, even though there is plenty of
room for it to be accommodated within the left and right margins:

%===
\version "2.16.0"

#(set-global-staff-size 33)

\paper { #(set-paper-size "a4") }

\header {
title = "Preludio"
composer = "Jean-Baptiste Bésard (c.1567–1617)"

With the following definitions, you can get what you want with a

(BTW, I commented out two lines in the markup definition which I don't
think are needed.)

If "the code is mostly copied from an old file" of yours, this sounds
like Janne has needed to "follow some standard", and you needed to do so
previously as well.  So it would appear like a request that is not
unheard of, and LilyPond should likely provide an easier way to support
this style.

Do you have a suggestion how this could be fit into LilyPond?  With
LaTeX, one would likely make this the topic of a style package and load
it with \usepackage, possibly with several possible options to select
various variants of key changes.

automatically left-aligning custom dynamics

[james]

I don't really understand it, but I can modify the examples of how to create 
custom dynamics to get what I want.
I have a document with several examples like:
rinforzamf = #(
   make-dynamic-script (
  markup #:line (
  #:left-align
  #:normal-text
  #:whiteout
  #:italic "rinforza"
  #:hspace 0
  #:whiteout
  #:dynamic "mf"
  )
  )
)
And a macro that left-aligns it:
leftalign = { \once \override Dynamics.DynamicText #'self-alignment-X = #-1 }

Heretofore, I've just been manually adding the \leftalign before the 
\rinforzamf (for example). Is there a way to get both of these in one command?

TIA,

James

Hi,

at the end of a line I'd change the order in which KeyCancellation and
KeySignature appears. This requires some new settings in KeySignature
'space-alist and BreakAlignment 'break-align-orders.

customBreak = {
 #(define key-signature-space-alist '(

(staff-bar extra-space . 1.1)

(right-edge extra-space . 0.5)
(first-note semi-fixed-space . 2.5)))

 \once\override  Score.KeySignature #'space-alist =

#'#(
;; end of line
(breathing-sign
 clef
 staff-bar
 key-signature
 key-cancellation
 time-signature)
;; middle of line
(breathing-sign
 clef
 key-cancellation
 key-signature
 staff-bar
 time-signature)

(clef

 \break
}

f4 ges \clef alto as b \breathe

\customBreak

\clef treble

It should also be present in notation.pdf.  If it's missing, that
would be a serious bug in our documentation-building system.

The HTML and pdf documentation should be identical, with one minor
difference in the beginning of Learning when it talks about
"clickable examples" for html.  If you see any other difference,
it's highly likely to be a bug; please report such problems to the
bug-lilypond mailing list.

Ah I had downloaded all twelve of the pdf manuals which I routinely search via

Notation A.10 is in the html document which doesn't get searched routinely.

It does have a set of definitions although not all examples cover material in

What is the recommended source, should I make the html my first port of call?

Awesome work with lilybin.com. Are you planning on open sourcing the code

that would probably contribute too. Perhaps you could create public GitHub

Custom key signature at line break

[Janne Uusitalo]

Hi,

if I typeset a key change from b major to g major, f remains sharp and
LilyPond prints out the naturals necessary for c, g, d, and a. Makes
perfect sense, but the standard I'm required to follow has it that an
extra # for fis should precede the group of naturals. Is there a way
to achieve this? I get close by creating a custom signature with the
right set of symbols, but as the change occurs at line break, I'm
stuck figuring out how to print this custom set at the end of line 1
and only that of g major at the start of line 2. Any helpful ideas to
share?

Lyric Descenders

Is there a way to ignore descenders (q, g, y, etc.) in lyrics? It messes up
base lines and line spacing and makes for a very unattractive misalignment.
I think this was briefly discussed back in 2.13, but it doesn't seem to
have been resolved by 2.16.

I'm not sure who made them or when they made it into LilyPond, but you're 
certainly welcome to post a patch documenting them - I think it'd be helpful to 
have that documented.

They do.  It's just that LilyPond doesn't know that they will because they're 
functions.  Whenever LilyPond doesn't know if a function will return a natural 
height, she assumes it won't.  This is why it needs to be wrapped in an 
unpure-pure container.  I'll revisit the CG and find a way to better explain 
this.

The layout engine ignores it because it is a function - LilyPond will simply 
ignore the function all together because there is no guarantee that it is pure 
(see above).

Hi guys..it is an old post..but i got it working right now..so i want to

I made a script vim-lilypond.sh

#!/bin/bash

CHAR=`echo $1 | cut -d ":" -f 4`
COLUMN=`echo $1 | cut -d ":" -f 5`
vim --servername lilypond --remote-silent "+call cursor($LINE, $CHAR+1)"
$FILENAME

then i started vim with server called lilypond:

vim --servername lilypond file.ly

and in xpdf or epdfview changed the urlCommand to "~./vim-lilypond.sh %s"
or whereever you put it..

it also works with gvim..

what i didnt understand is how lilypond-invoke-editor works and what it is
for..and..
what is the diference between LINE CHAR and COLUMN couse url comand has 3
numbers..

..am happy...

Lyric extender lines and rests after line break

[Davide Liessi]

Hi all!

In the following snippet you will notice that the lyric extender after
the line break doesn't start at the beginning of bar 2 but is just a
single dash under the hidden c'4.
The same happens using rests instead of spacer rests.
The glissando is not part of the problem, it is there just to show why
I use spacer rests and hide the final note.
I inserted the line break because the real glissando actually spans
four bars, and for optimal page layout in the orchestral score the
line needs to be broken.

\version "2.16.0"
<<
\new Voice = "voice" {
\override Slur #'transparent = ##t
\override Glissando #'breakable = ##t

c'''4( \glissando
s4 s2\break
s2 s4
\hideNotes
c'4)
\unHideNotes
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice" \lyricmode { a __ }
>>

I needed the extender line to start from the beginning of the first
bar after the line break.
I noticed that the problem could be solved by placing a hidden note at
the beginning of each bar spanned by the glissando and skipping that
note using \once \override NoteColumn #'glissando-skip = ##t as in the
next snippet.
This way, wherever a line break could occur, there will be a (hidden)
note at the beginning of the new line.

\version "2.16.0"
<<
\new Voice = "voice" {
\override Slur #'transparent = ##t
\override Glissando #'breakable = ##t

c'''4( \glissando
s4 s2\break
\hideNotes
\once \override NoteColumn #'glissando-skip = ##t
c'2 s4
c'4)
\unHideNotes
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice" \lyricmode { a __ }
>>

Then I tried to tweak the properties of LyricExtender, its interfaces
and Extender_engraver to see if there were ways to do this
automatically, but I couldn't find any.

Does anyone know how to do this without manually inserting hidden
notes in each bar?

Also, is it possible to make the extender line and the glissando line
start and end at the same horizontal coordinates after the line break?
Since I hide the middle and final notes, it would be nice to align the
two lines.

Thank you in advance.
Best wishes,
Davide

This an old annoyance [1]. 

You could try using my besideCN and replaceCN. 
See stencilCN.ly for recent code and a demo. 
Make sure you update it to your lilypond version. [2]


Two examples: 
  \besideCN #RIGHT "[6-7]" bes2 
  \replaceCN \markup "c]" c1 


You can try appending dashes as in ".9/[a  -  -" , 
but these overrides can't make them spread out  
automatically as a proper spanner would do it.

Markup query

[Peter Gentry]

Further to my recent query I have deduced from various confusing manual entries 
that my solution could be as follows

%
% variables for later use to avoid repititions
%-
date = #(strftime "%d-%m-%Y" (localtime (current-time)))
xtitle = "Wind Symphony"
xsubtitle = "No. 5 in E flat "
xarranger= "arr C Franklyn"
xChristian = "J C"
xSurname = "Bach"
xdates = "(1735 - 1782)"
xpart = "Clarinet 1"
xinstrument = "Clt1"
xmidiInstrument = "clarinet"
xgraphic="./BachJC.eps" 
xstamp = \markup{\concat { "Engraved "  \bold \date " with "  \with-url 
#"http://lilypond.org/"; "LilyPond " \simple
#(lilypond-version) " (http://lilypond.org/)" }  }

%--
% markup
%--
\markup  {
  \fill-line {
  \column {
 \center-align {
   \vspace #4 \fontsize #10 \concat { \xChristian " 
"  \xSurname } 
   \vspace #2 \fontsize #6 \xdates
   \vspace #3 \fontsize #10 \xtitle
   \vspace #1 \fontsize #10 \xsubtitle
   \vspace #2 \fontsize #4 \xarranger
   \vspace #2 \general-align #Y #DOWN { \epsfile #Y 
#40 #"./BachJC.eps"  }  
   \vspace #2 \fontsize #4 \xpart
   \vspace #2 \fontsize #1 \xstamp
  } 
  }
}
   }  

It is a shame that the manuals do not contain a single source including a 
precise definition of all the markup options - similar to
a c++ manual say. 

References are spread over a number of manuals, searches usually result in 
either a huge number of hits or none either way it is
difficult to resolve problems.

It is not meant to be hypercritical but the experience of a tyro Lilypond user 
for the gutus to consider.

Peter Gentry

Re: -dno-point-and-click undocumented

[Stefan Vollmar]

Dear Werner,

I do not think this is necessarily a bug in LilyPond: as Acrobat has no problem 
displaying the PDF and shorter scores work fine in Preview, my guess is that 
this is a Preview-specific problem - but I will investigate further and create 
a minimal example to reproduce the behaviour.

Warm regards,
 Stefan

OK, I've read it, and the concept of purity is explained well, thanks.
However, it's still not clear to me why the example works.

  . First of all, `make-XXX-stencil' seems to be completely
undocumented.  At least I can't find those functions in the
reference (except some unsystematic usage here and there).

  . I would expect that both `make-circle-stencil' and
`make-filled-box-stencil' produce something which has a natural
height.  Apparently, this isn't true.  Why?  This should be
mentioned, otherwise the example is not really comprehensible
IMHO.
  . Even if `make-XXX-stencil' produce objects with zero height, I
don't understand why the layout engine ignores it.  IMHO, zero
height is not the same as an empty stencil.

Maybe there is something else which I don't understand...

BTW, why the heck is this central part of LilyPond's layout engine
located in the Contributor's Guide?  This certainly belongs to the
`notation' or `extending' guide, I reckon.

Will do.  Maybe it is sufficient to simply add a link to

Re: -dno-point-and-click undocumented (was: PDF information issues)

[Stefan Vollmar]

Dear Werner,

useful as it can be for editing, I found at least one case (a score with three 
voices, six pages total) where "point-and-click" generated artefacts 
(incomplete lines and empty final pages) when viewed with Preview (Mac 10.6.8), 
while Acrobat 9 showed no such problems - possibly some overflow bug specific 
to Preview; everything works fine with -dno-point-and-click. As Preview is the 
default PDF viewer on the Mac (and usually works quite well) switching off 
point-and-click can be important.

Warm regards, 
 Stefan

Hey Werner,

You can check out the CG link for info about how the lilypond spacing engine 
works with unpure-pure-containers.  As there is no info in the users manual 
about the nitty gritty of horizontal spacing, James and I decided to leave out 
the "why" and just focus on the "what to do."

After reading the CG stuff, If you feel any info should be brought over to the 
users manual, post a patch and we can discuss it.  And, of course, if after 
reading the CG stuff is still unclear on how they work, lemme know.

Cheers,
