Re: Generate pitches between pitches
Hello Paolo, what you want is doable in a Scheme "music function" that takes the two pitches as input and returns a completed music expression. However, for someone to help you out with that you should give more clear indications how that result should look like, especially with regard to durations/rhythm.

You can label the slurs with numbers (NR §1.3.2 Expressive marks as
curves) but you will need 2.19.83 (or at least > 2.18.2).

I'm not sure I understand exactly where the second slur supposed to go.
You say "above", but explicitly specify the slur to go below.
Which is to say, you write _( _) instead of just ( ).
In any case, one way to get two slurs is to use
phrasing slurs in addition to regular slurs.
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/expressive-marks-as-curves#phrasing-slurs
I adjusted your example to do this.
However, I don't understand why the phrasing slur
does not show up in the tab staff, only in the regular staff.
Maybe someone else can figure that out.
To get the phrasing slur to move up from where it normally sits,
you can use \shape.
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/modifying-shapes
You could specify the phrasing slur to be above,
either by using ^\( ^\), or by using \\phrasingSlurUp,.
However, this puts the slur above the entire staff,
and that is much further away from where (I think)
you want it, so we'll keep it as it is, below.
I also demonstrate use of tags, so that the modifications
for \shape only apply to the staff, not the tabstaff.

Generate pitches between pitches
Hello, given two pitches, for example: c' and c'', is there a way to automatically generate all the pitches between them? In three different ways: 1) all the "white keys" between them: d' e' f' g' a' b'2) all the "black keys" between them: des' ees' ges' aes' bes'3) all the pitches: des' d' ees' e' f' ges' g' aes' a' bes' b' This feature would be very useful for simulating (piano) glissandos with MIDI. thanks.

What compatibility are you needing?
As I've used the old function in existing scores, I'd like
to avoid changing them all to use the new function. That's
the kind of compatibility I'd be needing.
Forgive me, but did I not invent that function only two weeks ago? How
busy have you been to have used it in so many scores?! (:
But, really, it should involve little more than a find-and-replace to
convert the older usage to the newer. Here's a bash script to do the
work:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
sed 's/\\override\s\+NoteHead\.color\s*=\s*\\highlightOutOfRange\s\+\('\
'#\(([^)]\+)\|\S*\)\s*\)\?\([a-z,'"'"']\+\s\+[a-z,'"'"']\+\)/\\highlig'\
'htPitches \1outside { \3 }/g' $1
Given an example input fragment...
\override NoteHead.color = \highlightOutOfRange #(x11-color 'tomato) c'
c''
\new Voice \with { \override NoteHead.color = \highlightOutOfRange #red
c' c'' }
\relative c' { c d \once \override NoteHead.color = \highlightOutOfRange
c' c'' e f }
...the script outputs the following:
\highlightPitches #(x11-color 'tomato) outside { c' c'' }
\new Voice \with { \highlightPitches #red outside { c' c'' } }
\relative c' { c d \once \highlightPitches outside { c' c'' } e f }
But since sed works on a line-by-line basis, it will not be able to
detect cases when you have spread the \override across multiple lines.

Not bad, almost right, I would make the vertical line at the end of the
extender a little smaller, something like (cons 0 -1.0).
And when using \ottava #-1 the code for your extender line isn't
usable. Take a look at Gould's Behind Bars p.28 chapter "Octave signs" to
see what I'm trying to accomplish.

Hi Martin, AFAIK all of this can be done, yes. However, it’s a bit hacky and will be much easier in the not yet published 2.21.0 which will have improved ottava brackets.

8va superscript
Hi,
Attached is a picture from two 8va variants I found in the Bravura font.
Using LilyPond with the following tiny example:
\version "2.19.83"
\relative {
\ottava #1 f'' f f f |
\ottava #-1 f,, f f f |
}
will result in "8va" (above) and "8vb" (below)
I would like to accomplish two things:
- 8va above the staff with the "va" superscripted like in the attached
png, and the dotted extenderline vertically aligned with the superscripted
"va", or the top of the "8" or the superscripted "va".
- 8va below (instead of 8vb) using the normal italic "8va" and the
dotted extenderline vertically aligned with the floor of the "8va" text.
Can all this be done in LilyPond?
I mostly use the traditional 8va below the staff in pianomusic instead of
more modern 8vb. (Which I don't like - personal taste I guess. You may
call me oldfashioned)
