Re: staffSize music function unreliable at LP v2.19.16
I should add that the original code was missing a right closing brace after
\staffSize #2 to close off the \with block.

Non-printing score-wide dynamics
The first 2 bars of a score are as follows:
invP = \tweak stencil ##f \p
\parallelMusic #'(mid Vone Vtwo Va Vc) {
% bar 0
\tempo 4 = 152 \partial 2 r2 |
\tempo Allegro non troppo 4 = 152 \partial 2 r2 |
\tempo Allegro non troppo 4 = 152 \partial 2 r2 |
\tempo Allegro non troppo 4 = 152 \partial 2 r8 a\f a a |
\tempo Allegro non troppo 4 = 152 \partial 2 r2 |
% bar 1
r1 |
r2 r8 a\f a a |
r8 a\f a a b4- a |
bf4- a g8 f e d |
d8\f a' d f a f d a\invP |
The mid item is a dummy staff (there is no actual staff) which I use
for tweaking tempi for the midi output: using this I can simulate rits,
fermatas etc. For the printed score and parts it is not referenced at
all.
Also in bar 1 I have \invP, which as can be seen produces an invisible
'piano' marking: this is simply to avoid the articulate script's
annoying warnings about ambiguous dynamics (which would be less annoying
if they told you exactly where in the music the problem arose!)
However, I have another dynamic problem which it would be nice to get
around. Later in the music there is a passage marked dim.; in
addition, each bar has hairpins and . The interpretation of these up
and down dynamics within a more general diminuendo is easy for
musicians, but understandably opaque for articulate.ly.
I can get rid of the warnings about this by putting the dim. into the
parts as a markup, rather than as a dynamic. But, although it is not of
vital importance, I wondered if there is some way I could mimic the
effect of the diminuendo (perhaps by using \f, \mf, \mp etc.
successively) in much the same way as I can mimic a rallentando by using
successive \tempo markings in the 'mid' context.
Actually, I am not really sure what kind of context 'mid' is anyway. I
do not define it anywhere else: I simply include it with the four actual
staves (which are defined with \new Staff etc.) in the \score block
which precedes the \midi command.
How might I add dynamics to 'mid' which would affect all the voices, in
the same way as \tempo changes do?

Re: staffSize music function unreliable at LP v2.19.16
The problem also exists on OSX (10.9.5) with 2.19.16.
2.18.2 still does it correctly.
I will test my linux machine later.
I'd say this constitutes a regression? The staffSize function doesn't seem
to do anything fancy or unusual.

Re: Non-printing score-wide dynamics
Hi David,
I wasn't really able to make sense of everything you said. Have you
considered using a global variable that is in every staff? That can be
useful for adding things (you could put your invisible dynamics in it for
instance).
As for your question about the mid context I'm not sure exactly what you
have done, but it sounds like it's just a standalone music expression? I
would need to see more code to be sure.

An observation. In the following snippet, you'll note in the log output

The mid item is a dummy staff (there is no actual staff) which I use
for tweaking tempi for the midi output: using this I can simulate
rits, fermatas etc. For the printed score and parts it is not
referenced at all.
Also in bar 1 I have \invP, which as can be seen produces an invisible
'piano' marking: this is simply to avoid the articulate script's
annoying warnings about ambiguous dynamics (which would be less
annoying if they told you exactly where in the music the problem
arose!)
This is a very nice idea! You just solved a problem that I've been
pulling out my hair over, and that is, when you have a ...\\...
section inside a staff (common in piano music, where the number of
logical voices in a single staff change frequently), the midi output
doesn't understand that the dynamics inside the ... should inherit
from the surrounding context. Instead, it defaults to \mf, which
produces horribly jarring output when the surrounding passage is \p. By
inserting invisible dynamics inside the ... to match the surrounding
context, finally I can get some sane output!!
Thanks!!
However, I have another dynamic problem which it would be nice to get
around. Later in the music there is a passage marked dim.; in
addition, each bar has hairpins and . The interpretation of these
up and down dynamics within a more general diminuendo is easy for
musicians, but understandably opaque for articulate.ly.
I can get rid of the warnings about this by putting the dim. into
the parts as a markup, rather than as a dynamic. But, although it is
not of vital importance, I wondered if there is some way I could mimic
the effect of the diminuendo (perhaps by using \f, \mf, \mp etc.
successively) in much the same way as I can mimic a rallentando by
using successive \tempo markings in the 'mid' context.
One idea I have that might help, is to define your own volume control
dynamic markings, e.g., dyn10, dyn20, dyn30, ... dyn100, and
override the Score.dynamicAbsoluteVolumeFunction to assign actual values
to these custom dynamics. Of course, these would be rendered invisible
so that they don't appear in your score. (See below for some actual code
snippets.)
Actually, I am not really sure what kind of context 'mid' is anyway.
I do not define it anywhere else: I simply include it with the four
actual staves (which are defined with \new Staff etc.) in the \score
block which precedes the \midi command.
How might I add dynamics to 'mid' which would affect all the voices,
in the same way as \tempo changes do?
[...]
You could just merge the 'mid' context into each staff in your midi
score (I include the dynamicAbsoluteVolumeFunction override below, as
illustration):
% This is the score for typesetting: don't use 'mid' at all
\score {
\new Staff { ... }
\new Staff { ... }
... % and so on
% This makes this score generate the typeset output.
\layout{ }
}
% This defines a new Scheme function called 'customDyn' that
% interprets new custom dynamics that we can use to control midi
% dynamics beyond what the default set of dynamics give us.
% Well, the below code doesn't actually give us anything more
% than what we already have, but this is just to illustrate how
% you can define your own arbitrary dynamic markings to refer to
% whatever midi volume levels you want in the output.

Thanks for finding the bug, and confirming that it is a bug and not just a misunderstanding, and narrowing down the cause, and posting to bug-lilypond. The relevant code did not change, but the version of GCC used as a cross- operating-system compiler did change. Some very useful programming languages, including C,have details where behavior is allowed to vary between systems, and here it seems LilyPond inadvertently depended on one of those details.

I wouldn't know how to build LilyPond for Windows to verify any fix... An observation. In the following snippet, you'll note in the log output that the default-direction of the downstemmed F and B is 0--CENTER. This means that Stem::calc-direction (in lily/stem.cc) will take the property 'neutral-direction. This property is supposed to specify the direction of a note on the midline--B only in our case. F should have a default-direction of 1. Note that adding \override Stem.neutral-direction = #1 fixes the problem for the bad stems.

Re: Subject: String Concatenation, and Use of Unicode characters [sic]
Michael,
Sorry to pipe in so late in this conversation, but have you seen what's
going on at http://fonts.openlilylib.org? Your LilyJAZZ code, etc. is
from the original files, but I've taken them a step further, making it
easier to change music fonts.You might want to update your LilyJAZZ
stuff from there.
Let me know if I can help in any other way.
Happy Engraving,
Abraham

Subject: String Concatenation, and Use of Unicode characters
Typically, I want PDF output in three files, (Concert pitch, Bb
and Eb), and I would like to modularise this as much as possible.
You will enjoy
#(define output-suffix Instrument”)
Certainly did! Thanks.
2. The LilyJazzText font uses small capitals instead of lower case
letters, so using ?Eb? produces a capital E followed by a small
capital B. On my Mac I know how to produce a flat sign, and
LilyPond
will use the flat sign from another font, but I?d like to be able
to
define a flat sign as a variable, and append it to the piece
markup
when creating the books for trumpet and alto.
There is something called \flat. I took out the references to
LilyJAZZ just to demonstrate, it should work regardless of font and
I didn't have the .ily file handy.
That certainly helped. I’m being fussy now, but there’s
unnecessary white-space between the “E” and the “b”. Also, I
want the “Alto Sax in Eb” in a smaller font, and the \flat is
bigger than I want it.
Forgive me for suggesting, but I suggest it improves mental health
to think of transpose in the form:
\transpose to from \musicExpression
I used to think of the transposition in this way until I found a need
to transpose the whole piece to a different key (to accommodate a
singer’s range, for example), and I found the two ways of looking
at transposition tied my brain in knots.
Ideally, I’d like to define the whole-piece transposition at the
top of the file, rather than editing the per-instrument transposition
at the point of book production.
So, Bb and Eb parts would be:
\transpose bes, c \trumpetPartConcert
\transpose es, c \altoPartConcert
instead of the cryptic:
\transpose c d' \trumpetPartConcert
\transpose c a' \altoPartConcert
Also, I took out references to \jazzOn since it didn't compile.
Thanks in advance,
Michael Hendry
Sure, I hope this helps.
Very much so.
I’ve attached my modified version of your code, along with the
necessary include files and an example of the output. I like the
informal look of the Jazz fonts, but I can still be obsessional about
font-size mismatches!
Michael

Getting to grips with ly:parser-include-string
Hi all, I'm feeling more and more stupid by the minute, so I desperately hope to get some help and enlightenment here. I have a function that basically includes a LilyPond file, and it does so quite well. This is the working version of the file: https://github.com/openlilylib/openlilylib/blob/master/ly/_internal/module-handling.ily However, I started to rewrite the file (for some extensibility considerations), and now it doesn't work anymore :-( Here's the work-in-progress file: https://github.com/openlilylib/openlilylib/blob/oll/module-handling/ly/_internal/module-handling.ily (To test: - get the latest version from openLilyLib - ensure you (also) have the ly directory in the include path - open any .ly files in any 'usage-examples' directory below 'ly' - compile them while on the master or while on the oll/module-handling branch ) The file is still included (which can be seen from the diverse debug messages), but - somewhat different with the various main files - it seems definitions in the included files are either ignored or cause errors. I assume it is somehow related to some scoping issue, or that the definitions in the included file somehow don't find their way in the actually used parser. But then I don't see where the _significant_ difference is between the two file versions.. Why does the older version work, after all? The change in the actual include code is based on this discussion: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2012-01/msg00061.html but I'm quite sure this doesn't have any negative impact on my problem. Any advice would be _greatly_ appreciated. Urs ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
staffSize music function unreliable at LP v2.19.16

#{
\set fontSize = #new-size
\override StaffSymbol #'staff-space = #(magstep new-size)

produces at LP v2.19.15:
but at LP v2.19.16 produces:
Besides being wrong (see, e.g., Behind Bars by Elaine Gould, p.13), this
causes many scores to require an additional page.
Applying convert-ly to the above snippet changes only the \version number.
I tried all values for new-size between -8 and +8; the only ones that failed
were -4 and 2.
(The staffSize music-function was kindly contributed by Eluze in 2013 on this
list to overcome limitations of layout-set-staff-size.)
