Are you actually repeating, or just allowing allowing two alternative 
endings? If the latter, why not use an ossia instead.

There may be a bug: with some bars added ahead, one should be able to use \bar 
"|", but it still typesets \bar ".|:". One can use \bar "", though.

The \bar ":|.” above is unnecessary. Also, if the \repeat volta does not 
encompass all music repeated, \unfoldRepeats will not expand MIDI correctly.

Re: Multiple Endings Problem

2015-01-02 Thread William Marchant
The code suggested by Thomas Morley, using the "\once \set Staff" 
line  solves my problem.
The bug, if it is one seems to lie in the fact that other code precedes 
my example code.  I did not realise that my code would run correctly 
without the preceding code.  An ossia would not suit me because I wanted 
the horizontal lines which designate which verses of the song the 
endings were to follow.  Thanks for all the replies.

That's fair.

The implication is this: If you need to use more than the standard glyph set
(e.g., the common noteheads, clefs, articulations, time signature numerals,
accidentals, etc.) then you may have to use Emmentaler instead of, say,
Haydn, or at least a mixture of the two. The biggest examples of this are
the shape-note noteheads and ancient chant glyphs (i.e., petrucci, kievan,
etc.). 

Does that make more sense?

Do I get this right:
- Currently you create new fonts that contain the same set of glyphs as
  Emmentaler, but with quite a number of original Emmentaler glyphs.
- You suggest to strip these literal copies from the alternative fonts
  to avoid redundancy.
?

Hm ...
If these assumptions are correct then I think I'd prefer redundancy in 
this case because otherwise you'd encounter problems that are hard to 
understand when LilyPond doesn't seem to print all glyphs anymore.
Maybe it would be a good idea to produce glyph tables for the fonts that 
clearly state which glyphs are Emmentaler copies, but basically I'd 
prefer complete fonts.
Except you could come up with a way to let LilyPond select Emmentaler 
glyphs as fallback when a glyph is missing from the selected font. That 
would be a clean solution IMO.

I think the problem was to print the fretdiagram _with_ fingering.

Try:

\version "2.18.2"

{
  c''1^\markup\fret-diagram-terse #"2-2;o;1-1;o;"
  \once \override TextScript.fret-diagram-details.finger-code = #'in-dot

  \once \override TextScript.fret-diagram-details.finger-code = #'below-string
  c''^\markup\fret-diagram-terse #"2-2;o;1-1;o;"
}

%% other syntax

{
  c''1^\markup\fret-diagram-terse #"2-2;o;1-1;o;"
  c''1^\markup
 \override #'(fret-diagram-details . ((finger-code . in-dot)))
 \fret-diagram-terse #"2-2;o;1-1;o;"
  c''1^\markup
 \override #'(fret-diagram-details . ((finger-code . below-string)))
 \fret-diagram-terse #"2-2;o;1-1;o;"
}


Though, I think it's well covered in the NR.

I could not find that \override string anywhere. Using the terse form of

automatically but on mine it does not! This is version 2.18.2. However

Dear Abraham,

I didn’t want to complain before I understand your point correctly. To
understand it, I wanted to test your fonts how they behave when using
such symbols. As I had no time up to now, I just ask my questions, even
if I could have found out myself.

Could you please clarify, if I understood you correctly?

1. The current situation is:
a) If I use a font which has no gregorian chant glyphs, the
corresponding Emmentaler glyphs are in that font and they are used. Is
that right?

b) If it comprises those glyphs, they are used (Profondo), right?

2. You want:
a) Writing greg. chant with such a font that does not support it, is not
possible anymore. I could however switch to another font for just this
context or even a single symbol if I want that (e.g. engrave a
VaticanaStaff using Emmentaler and a Staff in the same score using Haydn
or I could put a Profondo special symbol in a score that uses Beethoven
which does not support this symbol.)

b) More exotic glyphs that are present in a font are still available
(e.g. greg. chant is still possible with Profondo)?

If that is the case, I would prefer complete fonts that can do anything
LilyPond can do. But I could also live with that change, given that I
can work around this by using different fonts in the same score.

Is it possible to implement some kind of cascade in LilyPond: That it
uses the chosen font (e.g. Haydn) and if a symbol is not available it
has a fallback to Emmentaler which contains all symbols. That way the
font would not need to provide the fallback but LP itself.

Cheers,
Joram

I have the impression that Joram didn't read my last post before writing 
his but essentially wrote exactly the same as I did.

If that's true I think that should  be quite telling, isn't it?

Yes, I only read it afterwards and I agree that it essentially has the
same content as yours.

Re: Alternative fonts glyph support

2015-01-02 Thread tisimst
Joram and Urs,

I appreciate your feedback and comments. I think you both have an clear 
enough understanding of what the situation is. I only recently 
considered doing this, but as I've pondered it more and more I've come 
to realize that isn't really any harder to provide full glyph support 
in each font than to not. So, I'll probably just continue to support 
them. That's just the easiest thing to do, I think.

Re: programming error: Improbable offset for stencil: nan staff space

Hi

First of all:  Happy new year to all of you.

Does someone knows the meaning of this programming error ?:

programming error: Improbable offset for stencil: nan staff space
Setting to zero.
continuing, cross fingers

Searched on the net but couldn't find a reasonable answer.


Happy new year, Karim!

In this case, a minimal example of your music that triggers the error is 
*very* helpful to answer your question, otherwise we'll just poke around 
in the dark ...
