Scheme function for alternate tagged swing stopped working
I wrote a function \sw, against LilyPond 2.12, a while back.
It takes music as an argument, and returns two copies of the music, one
tagged 'layout and one tagged 'midi. The 'midi tagged one has eighth
notes changed to quarter-eighth triplets (i.e., swung).
I’ve run it through convert-ly a couple of times, and now, against
2.16.2, it doesn’t work. I’m not sure when it stopped working; I was
setting reels fast enough that it was hard to hear the difference. But
now I’m setting some hornpipes, and the difference is very clear.
The file that defines the swing function can be found at http://crism.maden.org/music/swing.ly >.
Attached is a simple test file and its output. The first staff should
have the same passage twice, but swung the second time. The second
staff should be straight, and the third swung. Instead, you’ll see that
all four copies are identical, and straight.
It seems that the music internals have changed but I can’t put my finger
on how. Any pointers would be welcome.
Thanks,
Chris

RE: Re; Volta problem
Jay,
The format for alternative endings: \alternative { {} {} }.
See this does what you want.
\alternative {{ g2. ~ g2.\breathe } {g2.\fermata}}

As both cases have the same stem direction one has to be shifted.
Usually if you want two voices you either give them separate staves,
or give one the \voiceOne and the other the \voiceTwo appellations.
This also fixes your articulation problem.
Changes are to use the `natural' articulation direction (- instead of
^) and add \voiceOne and \voiceTwo for standard short score notation.
As an aside, dutch note names and \relative make data entry MUCH
faster. See below (part 2). And I prefer to have bars present in a
longer piece, to allow line breaking and to allow bar checks to be
added in the source, so as to not lose myself when making amendments.

Hi Jay,

Alternative takes a **brace-enclosed** set of [possibly brace-enclosed]
expressions:
\alternative { { alt1 } { alt2 } }
Below is your snippet, heavily re-formatted (because I found your version very
hard to read/follow) — note how
\alternative { g2. ~ g2.}\breathe {g2.\fermata}
has become
\alternative { { g2. ~ g2. \breathe } { g2.\fermata } }
which, I believe, gives you what you want.
Hope this helps!
Kieren.
p.s.
> I'm not interested in the midi for it.
Then why include the \midi {} block at all? (I’ve commented it out in my
revision.)

First time Voices user
So, I'm trying out voices for the first time, switching a piece I had
written using chords for single staff polyphony to using voices. In the
process I have run into a couple of things I don't understand:
1) Some notes that don't collide (to my eye), are getting shifted as if
they did. When the same pair of notes are set as a chord, there is no
shift. Clearly there's a difference between what lilypond considers a
collision between notes in separate voices and within a chord. Can some
one explain that to me?
2) When simultaneous notes from separate voices have the same
articulation, the articulation is printed twice (once for each note).
Obviously, this is desirable behavior if the notes are articulated
differently, but is there some way for simultaneous identical
articulations to be printed only once? The identical articulations tend
to make the notes look crowded.
Below is a snippet which creates two staffs showing examples of my
confusions: the first is my test using voices, the second is the same
music typeset using chords.
\version "2.18.2"
\language "english"
mel = {bflat'2 bflat'4^- a'^- a'^-}
harm = {g'2 g'4^- c'^- f'^-}
chorded = {2 4^- ^- ^-}
global = { \key f \major
\set Score.timing = ##f
\omit Stem }
\new Staff \with {
\remove "Time_signature_engraver"
}
<<
\global
\new Voice = "melody" {\global \mel}
\new Voice = "harmony" {\global \harm}
>>
\new Staff \with {
\remove "Time_signature_engraver"
}
{
\global
\chorded
}

Adding text below the staff
The Documentation 2.1.5 shows an example of placing text below the note. c2^"espr" a_"legato" When I copy this verbatim into my script it works. espr goes above the c and legato goes below the a. But the following does not work. r2 r4 a4^_"3. One"^_"2. Be -" \bar ":|" cs2^_"eat" r2 \bar "|." I get the unexpected string error. If I remove the underlines, the text goes above the notes OK, but I want it below. What am I doing wrong?

Autochange for two voices
Hello, I am trying to typeset scales for two hands on the piano like so : http://postimg.org/image/bq0hqyv1z/ I was able to get to this point: http://postimg.org/image/qfsrmlo85/ but I can't seem to find a way to disconnect the upper voice from the lower voice. I am using \autochange which I believe might be the cause of the issue. Does anyone know how to properly format the music?
