Re: How do I change the size of lyric text?
Abraham,
I make a lot of lead sheets, and I do the following:
%%%
\version "2.19"
\layout {
\override LyricText #'font-size = #2
}
Chords = \chordmode {
c2 e2:m
}
Music = \relative c' {
c4 d4 e4 f4
}
Lyrics = \lyricmode {
Do re me fa
}
<<
\new ChordNames { \Chords }
\new Staff <<
\new Voice = "Verse" { \Music }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "Verse" { \Lyrics }
>>
>>
%%%
You can add multiple lyrics to the same music -- for multiple verses. And
when there are slight rhythmic variation that you don't want to notate, you
can use \new NullVoice to add a hidden voice to an existing staff, as shown
below.
%%%
<<
\new Staff <<
\new Voice = "VerseA" { \MusicA }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "VerseA" { \LyricsA }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "VerseA" { \LyricsB }
\new NullVoice = "VerseC" { \MusicC }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "VerseC" { \LyricsC }
>>
>>
%%%

Re: ChordName Font Size
Aaron,
I noticed that the scaling factor -- #3 in the example below -- is not the
same between this method and the standard method ( \override Chordname
#'font-size).
This isn't a problem, as I was able to adjust the font size to my liking,
however I am curious as to why the difference exists.
%%%
\version "2.19"
embiggenChordNames = #(define-scheme-function (size) (number?)
#{ \with {
chordNameFunction = #(lambda (in-pitches bass inversion context)
(define (helper mu)
(if (list? mu)
(if (eq? (car mu) musicglyph-markup)
(markup (#:fontsize (- size) mu))
(map helper mu))
mu))
(let ((orig (ignatzek-chord-names in-pitches bass inversion
context)))
(markup (#:fontsize size (helper orig)
} #} )
Chords = \chordmode {
\override ChordName #'font-name = #"Source Sans Pro"
a:dim bes c:maj7 d:m e:aug fis g:7/b
}
<<
\new ChordNames
\with \embiggenChordNames #3
\Chords
>>
<<
\new ChordNames
\with { \override ChordName #'font-size = #3 }

The first thing to know is that you're setting the LyricText font size in a
"Staff" context, which is why it's ignored since LyricText grobs don't live in
the "Staff" context, but in the "Lyrics" context. So, you can fix this by
moving that override to the score's \layout block like this:
\score {
\new Staff \with {
fontSize = #-3
\override StaffSymbol.staff-space = #(magstep -3)
}
{
c''1
}
\addlyrics {
Help!
}
\layout {
\override Lyrics.LyricText.font-size = #-6
}
}
Personally, I'd strongly recommend *against* using \addlyrics for proper lyrics
because it really is only designed for use in the most basic of situations and
will cause lots of problems if you go beyond that. Just something to consider.

Can I force a staff to continue for a new key signature?
I want to do something slightly unusual: at the end of a score I want a new key
signature. (I'm extracting bits and don't want the next bar, but do want the
key change).
I tried this but the key change is printed without the staff lines.
\version "2.19.52"
\language "english"
\score {
\new Staff {
\key c \major
c''1 1 1 1
\bar "||"
\break
\key a \major
% a'1 1 1 1
}
}
If I uncomment the last text line I get the staff lines back. Is there any way
of doing this without printing the nest line?

Re: bug in lyric syllable magnetic snap
Hi Alexander (et al.), > I sometimes (still use Lilypond, and when I do, I typically use) your > wonderful snippet for snapping "close" syllables into a single token. I *so* wish I could use it… but I keep running into bugs that I never have time to MWE-ize, and so I end up bailing on it. The one you point out here is one of the issues that I’ve been hit by. Another is somehow related to using non-ASCII characters (e.g., Cyrillic lyrics somehow break it). This "LyricWord" grob/concept is something I desperately want to be worked out "for good" so that I can use it without worry. Here’s hoping this thread moves us in that direction! Thanks, Kieren.

staff-space as a variable
Hello,
How can I modify my tweaks to take into account a smaller staff-space? In the
example below, I’d like to set the padding to 1.1 * the staff-space, instead of
explicitly writing 0.7.
Previously I was using \magnifyStaff but that caused issues with the final bar
line.
Thanks,
