This is where providing an example of what you have tried would be 
useful.


A note is allowed to be the end of one span and the beginning of 
another:



\version "2.20.0"

{ b'2 \startTextSpan 4 4 \stopTextSpan \startTextSpan | 4 2. 
\stopTextSpan }

LilyPond 2.21.80 installer on MacOS 10.15

2020-11-11 Thread Hans Åberg
MacOS 11 is about to be released, so this is a LilyPond 2.21.80 installer, 
latest unstable release, for use on MacOS 10.15. As it will take some time to 
get MacPorts working on Mac OS 11, and this installer likely will not work on 
it, the best shot is to install this on MacOS 10.15 and then upgrade.

The installer is made from MacPorts lilypond-devel, available on the link below 
[1]. It installs in /opt/lilypond/, with the program in 
/opt/lilypond/bin/lilypond.

If you have already something installed in this directory, it may be prudent to 
remove it first. This can be done by the command
sudo rm -rf /opt/lilypond

1. https://web2.storegate.com/share/wiM8LyF

It may be the case that 'lilypond' is best to be run from a script that sets 
LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (which otherwise on MacOS is LC_CTYPE=UTF-8). It can be 
created and installed as follows:

In Terminal write (^D is D):
% cat > lilypond
export LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
exec /opt/lilypond/bin/lilypond "$@“
^D

% chmod a+x lilypond
% sudo -s cp lilypond /usr/local/bin/lilypond

The program can then be called by 'lilypond' in Terminal, as /usr/local/bin/ is 
in the program searchpath.

And do 'rm lilypond' if you do not want to keep the local copy of the script.

Simply adjust the left and/or right padding of the spanner. You can
look it up in the NR and Internals reference.

Problem positioning TextSpanner

2020-11-11 Thread Victor Olaya
Hi

I am trying to create a text spanner that groups several notes, in such a
way that the end of the spanner falls exactly on the last note, so another
one can start right after that and convey the idea the note also belongs to
that other group.

An image might help to clarify it. I want to do something like this:

https://www.maqamworld.com/es/maqam/rast.php

I haven't found a way of doing it, and the \startTextSpan \stopTextSpan
syntax doesn't seem to allow a note to be part of two spans.

Any idea on how to solve this?

Thanks in advance.
