This does not work it is not using the LilyPond on the stick it is using
the one on the computers Sorry!  At this time i do not know how to fix it.
   I have LilyPond on my computers, if i remove LilyPond from the computer

 This is interesting. A couple of hours ago I had the discussion with


 Federico


 whether there is a reason for compiling guile in LilyDev postinstall


 based on branch_release-1-8 rather


 than just taking guile-1.8.8.tar.gz from ftp.gnu.org.


 Are the fixes on top of the guile-1.8.8 release really important for us?

   
   
We probably still need to configure using --disable-error-on-warning ,
   
   
and without those changes, building will fail at least when trying to
   
   
build the documentation with a newer Texinfo version.
   
   

   
  
  
   ./configure option "--disable-error-on-warning"  made guile-1.8.8 compile (yay) The "errors" were warnings raised to errors apparently (?)
   
  
  
   
  
  
   After that, lilypond-2.19.83 ./configure was happy about the guile version, and completed configure.
   
  
  
   
  
  
   But then lilypond errors out on:

It's actually documented as the last item in the section "Manual
syllable durations" and again in the "Snippets" part of the section
"Placing syllables horizontally", but only in the Notation Reference,
which seems appropriate to me. Because LP now¹ sets lyrics by default
with the syllables centre-aligned except for melismas, where they're
left-aligned, there's no real point in introducing this construct
in the Learning Manual when almost nobody will need it.

I hope you don't mind my asking why you want always left-aligned.
It's quite unusual in my experience.

¹ the old behaviour, as in 2.18.2, was to set unassociated lyrics
having manual durations as left-aligned. I always assumed it was
just an oversight awaiting correction, though I could be wrong.

Cheers,
David.



I put Frescoboldi on a stick

2020-01-18 Thread Freeman Gilmore
Take you files with you.

I took the lead from Abraham Lee.   Works on 4 computers.   Windows 10.   I
did this:

I installed LilyPond 2.19.83 and  Frescoboldi 3.1.1 on one computer.
Download openLilyLib (part I use)
On a stick I made a Programs folder (root is OK)
I copied the 3 folders above to the Programs folder.
I made a Frescoboldi shortcut on the stick root directory.
I also made one for the computer desktop.  (if you like)

For each remaining computer i took the stick and:
I made Frescoboldi shortcut on the stick root directory for that computer.
  The short cut that you use for that computer will show the Lily
  (if a computer is similar a common short cut may work, You will now
if you see a Lily on one)
  I have 4 computers and 3  shortcuts on my root directory  for the 4
computers.
I also made one for each desktop.   (if you like)

So  far it works!   Be patient for Frescoboldi to load the first time or
you may open several copies.

Have fun.

Take the tip of the branch_release-1-8 branch in the Guile repository.
Thien-Thi Nguyen has kept that compilable even though no official
release is.  I have not recompiled last month, but I would guess that
it's workable.  If that alone does not work, you may need to call
configure with --disable-error-on-warning to get it through.

You should only need to change LyricText.self-alignment-X.  Doing it 
within a \layout block makes it easy to affect all lyrics contexts:



\version "2.18.2"

\layout {
  \context { \Lyrics
\override LyricText.self-alignment-X = #LEFT
  }
}

{ b'4 b' b' b' }
\addlyrics { one two three four }
\addlyrics { five six seven eight }

You might also try modifying that to:

onesyllable = \lyricmode { \once \override LyricText.self-alignment-X = #LEFT 
six __ _ }

I use this construction frequently enough to define in my library:

ll = \lyricmode { \once \override LyricText.self-alignment-X = #LEFT }
cc = \lyricmode { \once \override LyricText.self-alignment-X = #CENTER }
rr = \lyricmode { \once \override LyricText.self-alignment-X = #RIGHT }

so that I can write:

onesyllable = \lyricmode { \ll six __ _ }

David.

Hi Sandro,

the \language command is used to tell LilyPond what notes (or chord roots)
you want. 
To control the way LilyPond displays them, you might need commands like
\italianChords, \germanChords etc.:

% 
\version "2.19.83"

<<
  \new ChordNames \chordmode { c1 a:m f g }
  \new ChordNames \chordmode { \italianChords c1 a:m f g }
  \new Staff { \clef bass c1 a f g }
>>
% 

Does that help?

Cheers, 
Klaus

There are several ways of accomplishing what you want. Perhaps the simplest to
understand is this one:

  SNIPPET BEGINS  
\version "2.19.83"

thenotes = { \once \phrasingSlurDashed c''4.\( 8\) }

Words under notes with dashed slur

2020-01-18 Thread Peter Flynn
I am trying to do a single-stave (voice) score with words in two 
languages. In one measure, I have a dotted crochet tied to a quaver with 
a dashed slur because it is sung to two syllables in one language but 
only one syllable in the other language.


If I use \addlyrics{ Foo- bar}, the "Foo-" gets positioned under the 
whole slurred phrase (both notes) and the 'bar' gets positioned under 
the following note. If I use \addlyrics{Foo-bar}, the hyphenated words 
gets positioned under the whole slurred phrase, which actually comes out 
almost right, but it would be nicer to have it separated.


In the translation, the single syllable of course is positioned 
correctly under the slurred phrase.


Is there a way to indicate that a part of a word must be assigned to an 
individual note of a slurred phrase? There seems to be a lot in the 
archives on slurs (actually ties) under or over the words themselves, 
but I can't find anything on assigning word to notes (but I'm a 
beginner, so I am probably searching for the wrong keywords).
