staff manipulation question
I’m working with a score that has multiple staves that appear and disappear at various points. I ran into a curious behavior: I have two staves fro a while, the second has two notes that complete mid-measure so I encoded like this: \score { \new StaffGroup \relative c' { \new Staff \key f \major \time 6/8 { R2.*2 e2.~ \pp } \new Staff \relative c'' { \once \set Staff.explicitKeySignatureVisibility = #end-of-line-invisible \set midiInstrument = #violin \once \omit Staff.TimeSignature \key d \minor g bes,2. {g~ g8} \\ {f2. ( _\markup{\italic dim.} e8) \pp} r8 r r4 r8 } \break a8-. \p ^\markup{solo arco} [r16 g-. a8-.] c-. r r } } However, when the second staff concluded, it didn’t disappear. I worked out it was because the region wasn’t aligned with a measure break. So, I replaced with this: {g~ g8 b\rest b\rest b4\rest b8\rest} \\ {f2. ( _\markup{\italic dim.} e8) \pp s s s4 s8} however, this was quite clunky. I had to create rest space in both note groups, and then I had to reposition the rests in the top note grouping to apply to both voices. Aside from the staff not disappearing, the top solution works well. Is there a more streamlined way to do this?

relative NonMusicalPaperColumn.line-break-system-details offsets?
Hi all, The title says it all, really: I sometimes resort to using NonMusicalPaperColumn.line-break-system-details to tweak the placement (usually Y-offset) of certain systems or staves within systems. But currently, all values must be given as an absolute distance from the top [or left] of the printing area. This results in a great deal of trial-and-error, and given the fact that recompile times are large for many of the [sizeable] scores I’m engraving, my productivity is definitely reduced when I hit that point in the process. Furthermore, if I’ve made a relative adjustment, and (e.g.) the layout of a system above changes, a relative adjustment from where Lily *thinks* the system should be is almost certainly still closer to “the truth” than an absolute setting. Is there a way to allow NonMusicalPaperColumn.line-break-system-details Y-offset to be set in relative terms (like \offset does with many properties)? Thanks, Kieren.

A question about scores and parts from a blind user
Hello everyone, I am attempting to finish and arrangement to a song for three brass parts. I'm not sure I fully grasp the understanding of the \include and its function. I have one file which contains all of the variables that I am using as well as the layout of the score. What I am trying to do, is used that file to create my parts. I have created a trumpet part file, and when I compile it using the variable from the score file, it returns to me a 7 or 8 page long pdf. this doesn't seem right to me, as the score itself is only five or six pages long. The part for the trumpet should be in my estimation around two or three pages long. I have compressed the multi measure rest. Can anyone tell me why my compilation is so large? Is it including the entire score all over again? Thanks for any help. Sorry I was unable to provide a tiny example, I had to step away from my computer a little bit LOL.

Re: A question about scores and parts from a blind user
Daniel, Yes, when you use the \include function, LilyPond will treat the included file as though it is entirely included in the including file. So if you have an active \score { . . . } block inside the included file, LilyPond will generate that block as well as the \score { . . . } block in the trumpet part. To get around this, I usually put all of the notes in a file with no \score { . . . } block and then have separate files for the score and all the parts. That way I can use \include without generating a score that I don't want. Does that make sense?

If the paper setting is removed, it does not break the line at all.

Re: Incomplete final bar with \parallelMusic
David Sumbler wrote Monday, May 25, 2015 5:32 PM I am using the \parallelMusic entry for a string quartet. At the beginning of the 1st movement (which is mostly in 4/4 time) there is a half bar before the first bar-line, which causes no problem because I have \partial 2 in each part. But the corresponding half bar at the end of the movement produces barcheck failed warning messages, although the music compiles correctly. The final bar and a half are these: % bar 148 d2 r2 | d2 r2 | d2 r8 cs cs cs | d2 r8 cs cs cs | % bar 149 d4 r4 \bar |. d4 r4 \bar |. d4 r4 \bar |. d4 r4 \bar |. So far I haven't found a way to suppress these messages, although I have tried several different approaches. I suspect that there is probably a fairly simple solution, but so far I haven't managed to think of it! Any ideas? The bars must be all the same length as the bar check marks are required. This can be fiddled by increasing the duration of the rests without changing the printed appearance: % bar 148 d''2 r2 | d2 r2 | d2 r8 cs cs cs | d2 r8 cs cs cs | % bar 149 d4 r4*3 \bar |. | d4 r4*3 \bar |. | d4 r4*3 \bar |. | d4 r4*3 \bar |. | Trevor ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Hi Wilbert, many thanks for this excellent program and the installer. I had never any problem with the installation as it runs out of the box. The components in the installer are assembled by you with intention and I have the impression with caution. The download is done in a short time, for a DSL connection in seconds. And the installer makes everything in in less than 20 seconds. I can't imaging that I would waste my time with any manual installation experiments.
