This is one of my utility functions:


forceHyphen = \lyricmode {

You then use it like this:

Aaron,

Thanks for the hint.

Yes, those archives do have the content, although the search interface is
not as good as google.

Also, somehow I was able to get my file to work with the volta brackets,
and I'm not sure what I did to fix it!

Your \bar command is sitting outside a music expression, so it is 
getting treated as an alternative all on its own--if I understand the 
constructs involved.  Try instead:



\defineBarLine ":|]" #'(":|]" "" " |.")
\relative {
  \repeat volta 2 { c''4 d e f | }
  \alternative {
{ c2 e | \bar ":|]" }

Re: Last update before going to sleep, is it possible to turn or tilt musical Diagrams? Colors to the Diagrams?

2021-06-20 Thread darkijah
Oh you wrote back on the topic Jean, sorry - I'm trying to sort out 
every post I had in my post at the moment after stopping the overload 
flooding on my email which I just could not handle.


Well, I'm not sure it helps, I need 3 octaves, where I can set each of 
them into a specific fingering for each one of them and color as well, 
the coloring would need to be different and thereby not encoded in the 
script.


But overall, I should get moving on the full list of Fingerings, I just 
somewhat stalled on it, although have most written down - but then there 
are some fingerings of the High notes that I am still looking into and 
trying to figure out. So the Size and thickness and the rotating can be 
in the script overall, but the Color and the fingering need to be 
defined every time, for colors anyway, it would of cause be nice to also 
have an easy way to turn those colors of as well.


Anyway, I should find my flute again and go through all of the notes and 
fingerings, although a little late to play it now.


So the function should "just" be able to do 3 octaves and that would 
pretty much cover all pitches for the Tin Whistle High D.


But we have from D5 to d7 and somewhat beyond that:

nabble (barlines in volta brackets)

Ok, so I was going to try figuring out how to use my \barline ":|]" in a

but I get

programming error: Spanner `VoltaBracket' is not fully contained in parent

And it doesn't print the 2nd ending bracket.



When looking this up, however, I was more in shock to see that many of the

I think I recall reading something about a big migration?  Is there a way
to get to this content somewhere else?


And does anyone have a hint as to how to get the 2nd ending to work when

Re: Can I make Lilypond/frescobaldi only put music scores on one single page without it breaking the score up into more pages?

And If your notes do not fit on one page, but you still want to fit, 
then you can reduce the font size:

I had this thing but lost it when Frescobaldi crashed where I had music

Re: Terminology question

2021-06-20 Thread J Martin Rushton
Err, we're back to a terminology question.  Strictly speaking possession 
is one use of the more general genitive which gives a relationship, 
consider:


Give me William's book   - The book owned by William.
Let's go to John's local - The pub frequented by John.

Both are genitives, but only the first is possessive.  Evidently the 
term "possessive case" only came into use in C18, prior to that genitive 
had been universally used.  In short: "possessive case" is a limited 
subset of the grammatical genitive case.

I think this is the possessive case, not genitive.

Re: Terminology question

2021-06-20 Thread J Martin Rushton

Robert,

Are you sure about the genitive?  I would have thought the ablative 
would be more appropriate; consider:


rex armis militum interfectus est

The King was killed by the weapons of the soldiers.

The problem is that in English we would say "the soldier's weapons", but 
that's partly because we only have a genitive and not an ablative case.

David,

Good point.  You could look at it as a noun adjunct.  A noun modifying
another noun, serving in the capacity of an adjective, in this case.

I imagine that in an inflected language, such as Latin, the noun 
“dynamic” would
be in the genitive case while the noun “level” would be in accusative 
case (since
it is the object of the verb I used, “denotes”). That would have the 
sentence
translate to English as “It denotes a level of dynamic to be expressed” 
which doesn’t

really change the meaning.
