Re: setting partCombine text at a higher level

[Paul Scott]

Thank you!  That's perfect.  The somewhat standard names I would use are:

soloText = I

soloIIText = II

I should have mentioned that I always use the unstable version.

Stay safe,

Paul

You can do it more globally in a \layout block if you want it to apply 
to all staves.  Otherwise, put the variable definitions in a \with 
block that can be referenced on individual staves.



\version "2.22.0"

\layout {

combineTexts = \with {

PIano: Partial Pedalling

[Dijkhuizen, J.F. van]

Dear All,


I've tinkered about some more with partial pedalling and gradual sustain pedal 
release, and here's some code (some of it copied/adapted from the internet) 
that seems to work, even though in some respects it shouldn't:


\version "2.20.0"

\relative c'' {
  \set Staff.pedalSustainStyle = #'bracket

  % 1. standard sustain pedal behaviour
  c1\sustainOn c \sustainOff \sustainOn c\sustainOff c

  % 2. gradual pedal release indicated by dashed line
   \once \override Staff.PianoPedalBracket.edge-height = #' (1 . 0)
  c1\sustainOn
  \once \override Staff.PianoPedalBracket.bracket-flare = #'(0 . 14.5)
  \once \override Staff.PianoPedalBracket.edge-height = #' (0 . 1)
  \once \override Staff.PianoPedalBracket.style = #'dashed-line
  c \sustainOff \sustainOn
   c c4\sustainOn \sustainOff c c c

 % 3. 1/2 pedal instruction
   \set Staff.pedalSustainStyle = #'mixed
\once \override Staff.PianoPedalBracket.edge-height = #' (0 . 1)
   \override Staff.PianoPedalBracket.bracket-flare = #'(8 . 0)
   \once \override Staff.SustainPedal #'stencil =
  #(lambda (grob) (grob-interpret-markup grob (markup "½")))
   c1\sustainOn c c \sustainOff
}


In the second snippet, the slanted pedal release line ONLY works if \sustainOff 
in the final line is preceded by \sustainOn; otherwise the line remains 
horizontal.

It doesn't make complete sense to me, since there's already a \sustainOn in the 
preceding line. So this is probably isn't how it's supposed to be done, but for 
now it offers a simple way of notating gradual sustain pedal release.

LSR 202 [1] demonstrates how to include a segno/coda sign as part of a 
single RehearsalMark.


LSR 575 [2] uses a hidden measure to make it appear that you have two 
RehearsalMarks at the same point in the music.


LSR 976 [3] implements its own custom engraver to support an arbitrary

Did you enable the Frescobaldi Midi input feature?  What settings have

I bought an Alesis V61. Enabling the Port was done in no time. Then I
went into a score and tried to enter notes by typing  on the keyboard.
Nothind happens. I installed the apleton live lite software to check
whether there was a general error. However apleton reacted to keystrokes

Re: Horizontal beam parallel to staff

I know it is not standard practice, but I am looking for a way to make 
beams parallel to staff despite the noteheads on either side of the

Setting beam damping to a high value reduces the slope substantially, 
but it doesn't go to zero. Can someone suggest a way to do this?

Hello,

\override Beam.damping = #+inf.0 is supposed to do the trick. A bug that 
used to prevent it from working in all cases (not this one though) was 
fixed in version 2.21.0 
(https://gitlab.com/lilypond/lilypond/-/issues/1493).

  \override Beam.damping = #+inf.0

Many thanks for this, Aaron; it's very useful and I could never have coded this 
myself.


I've meanwhile done some more searching and the 'pedal-decorations' notation 
snippets in OpenLilyLib also go quite a long way towards doing what I'm looking 
for.

There are a few ad hoc solutions if you search the archives.  You can
see if my hack [1] to the PianoPedalBracket stencil a few years ago
would be of any use.
