Re: Strange beaming error
Do you also have subdivideBeams = ##t somewhere? If so please show the result with both 2.19.28 and .35.. And if that's the case you should maybe send me (privately?) the full piece so I could test with several builds before and after several recent changes. Urs Am 7.

Bravura svg font
Hi, I'm a new use of lilypond-windows on Win 8.1 64bit and Win 7. First of all, thanks for wonderful software; I'm generating many snippets for educational purposes. My main problem so far is getting the bravura alternative font to appear. I don't mind trying a few things, but this problem has me stumped. Bravura works fine when I produce png images, but I get something else when I try to make an svg. The svg is fine with Lilypond font, and I am only trying to change the clef to bravura bass clef. I put this in cmd. "c:\Program Files (x86)\LilyPond\usr\bin\lilypond-windows.exe" -dgui -dbackend=svg -dpreview file.ly I have this in the file.ly \version "2.18.2" \include "custom-music-fonts/smufl/definitions.ily" and \override Staff.Clef.stencil = #smufl-clef The offending part of the svg, instead of the clef path, is Evidently, it is trying to be bravura but from the text font perhaps? I got the same result when I tried 2.19.35. Would I have better luck with Linux? (last resort).

I read the Changes.pdf for v2.19.19 and didn't see (or recognize) any description of this new behavior. Are you sure that this has changed? I thought lyrics had always been included in midi files. Is there a way to turn this behavior off? Create a separate \score block for midi generation, without any Lyrics contexts.

I also note that a sharp symbol does not have four perpendicular intersections like the hash/pound/octothorpe but rather, the horizontal lines are slanted.

\addlyrics affects midi channel selection
The following snippet: \version "2.19.32" S = \relative c'' { c d e f } SLyrA = \lyricmode { tra la la la } T = \relative c'' { c d e f } \score { << \new Staff \S \addlyrics \SLyrB \new Staff \T >> \layout {} \midi {} } generates a midi file which has the \S and \T music on midi channels 1 and 3, resp. If there are more \addlyrics commands, then more midi channels are skipped. This is, I believe, new behavior which started sometime after v2.19.15 and before or at v2.19.19. I read the Changes.pdf for v2.19.19 and didn't see (or recognize) any description of this new behavior. Is there anywhere a discussion of what this is about? Why would one want to include lyrics in a midi file? Is there a way to turn this behavior off? ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

If you observe a bug in a LSR-snippet or want to propose some addition, etc, you may post here as well or on the bug-list. I think all people with permission to edit snippets are reading both lists.

Re: When to Use Pound Signs
Well, something I never knew: >From the Oxford English Dictionary II Online: octothorp, n. The hash sign (#), as it appears on the buttons of touch-tone telephones and some other keypads. 1996 New Scientist 30 Mar. 54/3 The term ‘octothorp(e)’ (which MWCD10 dates 1971) was invented for ‘#’, allegedly by Bell Labs engineers when touch-tone telephones were introduced in the mid-1960s. ‘Octo-’ means eight, and ‘thorp’ was an Old English word for village: apparently the sign was playfully construed as eight fields surrounding a village.

Ok, here indeed \"016_0e5-c" seems like the lesser evil (it _has_ worked in that manner since version 2.17.28, it's just not really publicized). -- David Kastrup ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Snippet: Vertical brace spanning several lyrics lines [addition]
Dear list, I found the snippet: "Vertical brace spanning several lyrics lines" (http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=265 and http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Snippet?id=265). It works perfectly "out of the box" for three lyrics lines as in the snippet, but it took me quite some time to get it to work for two lyric lines. It is a wee bit more complicated than with an odd number of lyric lines. This would be the "even number"-version: - dropLyrics = { \override LyricText.extra-offset = #'(0 . -1) \override LyricHyphen.extra-offset = #'(0 . -1) \override LyricExtender.extra-offset = #'(0 . -1) \override StanzaNumber.extra-offset = #'(0 . -1) } leftbrace = \set stanza = \markup { \hspace #1 \translate #'(0 . -0.6) \left-brace #25 } rightbrace = \set stanza = \markup { \hspace #1 \translate #'(0 . 0.4) \right-brace #25 } lyricsbeforebrace = \lyricmode { Here are some ly -- rics } lyricsfrombrace = \lyricmode { Here come some more } melody = \relative c' { c d e f g r4 f e d c } \score{ << \new Voice = m {\autoBeamOff \melody} \new Lyrics \lyricsto m {\leftbrace \lyricsbeforebrace \rightbrace \dropLyrics \lyricsfrombrace} \new Lyrics \lyricsto m { \lyricsbeforebrace } >> } - I wonder if it would be a good idea to add this even number case to the existing snippet. If yes, is this post sufficient? I'm fairly new in the LilyPond universe and I have no clear idea who manages the snippet repository and how.

Re: Strings as variable names
Sorry to delve into this a bit late, but an earlier point in this ongoing thread is relevant to work currently on my desk :) On Mon, 28 Dec 2015 19:20:28 +0100 David Kastrup wrote: > > flute_phrase01 = > > flute_phrase02 = > > > > or similar. > > When would you ever want to do that? Actually, I've got two use cases for this loaded in my editor right now. The first (an older, ongoing project) is a set of about 150 simple etudes. I can use--and am using--Roman numerals. It feels like a little bit of a cludge, but it works. The second is a bit more involved. I'm writing a set of accuracy training exercises that involve simple permutations of chromatic trichords (e.g., changes of order, and octave shifts). I'm currently using Roman numerals because there is no reasonable concise, descriptive name of each permutation that does not involve enumeration, and Arabic numbers are out of the question. So I have a legend at the top of each include file describing what my nomenclature means: % Trichord Variable Names % 012: A % 013: B % 014: C % 015: D % 016: E % 024: F % 025: G % 026: H % 027: I % 036: J % 037: K % 048: L % % Permutations: % Aa, Ab, Ac, Ad, etc. % % Permutation Variations: % AaI, AaII, AaIII, etc. % % Respellings (enharmonic respelling for legibility): % AaIi, AaIii, AaIiii, etc. Now, yes, I'm sure that with a handful of hours of trying to learn Scheme, I could probably find a way to do this that doesn't involve so many lines of Lilypond code, but my free time to work on this particular project is in half-hours here and there: learning enough scheme to do this is impractical. So in the meantime, I basically have to give each three-note motive a variable with a coded name that allows sufficient differentiation and can be searched reasonably easily. Variables with Arabic numerals would make these far more descriptive and easier to read! Such as, for instance, trichord (0,1,6), in the form and ordering of (0,11,5), enharmonic spelling version "c": \016_0e5-c ...instead of: \EbIIiii ...which is oblique and obnoxious to read. (And which I have to remind myself not to read as "E-flat...er...major? Minor? Huh?") Again, programming with scheme is almost definitely the correct--or at least most efficient and elegant--approach. But for reasons of time management for a freelance performer with next to zero programming experience, the preparatory study requirements make this superior approach non-pragmatic.
