Re: lyric problems with latest development version(s)
Is anyone else finding that melismas are not working in = v2.19.14 as they did in = v2.19.13? Specifically, ties seem to no longer force melismas. Hi Kieren, do you have a minimal example showing the problem ? That would make it easier for others to look into it (you know). Especially if it wasn’t changed on purpose.

distinguishing between cautionary accidentals and musica ficta
In editions of renaissance music, both cautionary accidentals and ficta
may be notated above the staff. I would like to distinguish between
these cases, using parentheses. It is possible to do so, on a
case-by-case basis, using
\once \override Staff.AccidentalSuggestion.parenthesized = ##t
but I would like to use a shorthand that detects cautionary accidentals
automatically. For example, in the following code, the natural above
the b should be parenthesized:
\version 2.19.2
ficta = {
\once \set suggestAccidentals = ##t
\once \accidentalStyle dodecaphonic % mark _all_ the ficta
in the bar
}
\relative c'' {
g4 \ficta fis g2
c4 \ficta b? c2
}
How may this be achieved? Suggestions gratefully received...

Re: distinguishing between cautionary accidentals and musica ficta
Solved it. I was stupidly trying to overload \ficta.
Anyway:
\version 2.19.2
ficta = {
\once \set suggestAccidentals = ##t
\once \accidentalStyle dodecaphonic % mark _all_ the ficta
in the bar
}
cautionary = {
\ficta \once \override
Staff.AccidentalSuggestion.parenthesized = ##t
}
\relative c'' {

I tried your snippet with a different meter and it gives some weird

The problem is here: you need to change the durations of the spacer rests
to reflect your measure divisions:
patterning = {
\repeat unfold 8 {
\set Staff.completionUnit = #(ly:make-moment 2 4)
s2 \bar !
\set Staff.completionUnit = #(ly:make-moment 4 4)

Not sure what you mean.

Perhaps the notational problems here are related to the obviously bad

dotted half refuse to be split?
I'll have to do some study of the code to see what's going on.

Thanks, Chris Chris, I looked into this a little bit and found the BarLine.extra-spacing-height property (which you may already know about). I recreated your example two-system score and tried to get this to work, but to no avail. I'm not sure what, if anything, I was doing wrong, but the description seemed to be just what you were looking for: In the horizontal spacing problem, we increase the height of each item by this amount (by adding the ‘car’ to the bottom of the item and adding the ‘cdr’ to the top of the item). In order to make a grob infinitely high (to prevent the horizontal spacing problem from placing any other grobs above or below this grob), set this to (-inf.0 . +inf.0). Maybe a more experienced developer can provide some insight into the workings of this property. Regards, Abraham P.S. There is the lilypond-de...@gnu.org mailing-list, in case you didn't know.

I am trying to modify header fonts for the requirement of a publisher.
I would rather not use text markup commands in the header, as it's not
simple to change multiple works at the same time.
I would much rather put the style changes in an external file, so they can
all be changed at the same time if requirements change. I'm using an
external file for paper size and margin, and staff size, so I would prefer
to put overrides in the same place.
Is it possible to put header font-name and font-size overrides in an
external file and how? Maybe some sort of lilypond css?
I tried this but the re-defining of title and other header data didn't work
for me.
\version 2.18.0
%\header { %% remove header block to turn title into a variable
title = Song Title
...
%}
... (\PartMusic and \PartWords definitions }
\header {
title = \markup { \override #'(font-name . 'Nimbus')
\title }
}
\score { \new ChoirStaff ... }

Jeff,
Here are two ways to do this:
%%
publisherCSS.ly
%
\version 2.18.0
\header {
title = \markup { \override #'(font-name . 'Nimbus') \myTitle }
}
%%
publisherScore.ly
%
\version 2.18.0
myTitle = Song Title
\include publisherCSS.ly --- must come AFTER myTitle definition
\PartMusic and \PartWords definitions
\score { \new ChoirStaff ... }
%%
Or, have you tried modifying bookTitleMarkup? Here's how I would do it
(this is just a slight modification to the default found in
titling-init.ly):
%%
publisherCSS.ly
%
\version 2.18.0
bookTitleMarkup = \markup {
\override #'(baseline-skip . 3.5)
\column {
\fill-line { \fromproperty #'header:dedication }
\override #'(baseline-skip . 3.5)
\column {
\fill-line {
\huge \larger \larger \bold
\override #'(font-name . Nimbus)-- Added override here!
\fromproperty #'header:title
}
\fill-line {
\large \bold
\fromproperty #'header:subtitle
}
\fill-line {
\smaller \bold
\fromproperty #'header:subsubtitle
}
\fill-line {
\fromproperty #'header:poet
{ \large \bold \fromproperty #'header:instrument }
\fromproperty #'header:composer
}
\fill-line {
\fromproperty #'header:meter
\fromproperty #'header:arranger
}
}
}
}
%%
See if either of those work for you.
HTH,
Abraham

Re: LilyPond Enhancement Proposal (with Bounty)
Hi all, This feature may (or may not) be a good fit with my [bounty-attached] request, which is that one could set a “minimum-duration” for a markup, and the music underneath would stretch accordingly. Use cases: 1. A MetronomeMark or RehearsalMark over a MultiMeasureRest would stretch the MMR as necessary. 2. A markup could stretch a single bar as necessary. 3. etc. I’m happy to chip in on a the OP’s bounty offer, if the fix also addresses my concern(s).

Re: Overriding header fonts in a template
Abraham,
Thanks for the help.
Creating a new header block is working, it does seem to work better when
the variables are defined before they are used. The issue with this is that
I don't know what header elements will be used for the next engraving.
The bookTitleMarkup looks like it is more robust, easier to change
everything in one spot, but I'm not seeing any changes. Lilypond reports no
errors. Frescobaldi helped me with the font name, so I know that is spelled
correctly.
\version 2.18.0
\language english
\include ../publisherCSS.ly% bookTitleMarkup stanza
\include ../letterpaper.ly % sets letter paper margins
\include music.ly % sets header and music variables
\score { \new ChoirStaff ... } % throws everything together for output
Is there something else I need to do to tell lilypond that I am re-definng
bookTitleMarkup?

How to make staff spacing with lyrics fixed
Hey all, How do I get the spacing between lyrics and the surrounding staves to be equal and fixed, regardless of whether noteheads/stems collide with the lyrics? I've tried a number of different combinations of settings and can't get the stems ignored. Also, I noticed that the spacing depends on whether the lyric letters have any descenders. Any way to make it based on the baseline? Thanks, Carl P. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
