Re: ANN: Frescobaldi 3.2

[Matthew Probst]

Just to clarify--if the pageview thingy is now required to be installed
first, does that mean that a future packaged Windows version might have
that plus the appropriate verison of Python packaged with it?  I'm fine
waiting for that, but wanted to know.

"I plan to (try to) release a standalone application bundle soon."

I assume this means you are working on a .dmg file for Mac. Is Brew no
longer supported?

Re: ANN: Frescobaldi 3.2

[Jacques Menu]

Hello everybody,

Thanks Harban and Davide for the help.

Installing from MacPorts actually creates /opt/local/bin/frescobaldi, but also:

jacquesmenu@macmini: /Applications/MacPorts > ls -sal
total 24
 0 drwxr-xr-x  10 jacquesmenu  admin   320 May  5 10:00 .

 0 drwxr-xr-x   8 root admin   256 May  5 09:56 Qt5

I didn’t know that.

Launching Frescobaldi.app from the Finder works as expected, with the 
Preferences menu item under Frescobaldi.

There is a symptom that occurs sometimes with the 3.1.3 version: cliking on a 
menu header  displays the menu’s contents, but hides it right away before any 
item can be clicked on.

With 3.2, click followed by click-and-hold keeps the menu contents accessible 
so as to select an item.

the standalone .app bundle for Mac, distributed as .dmg package, has
not been prepared yet.
I'll try to do it soon, although there may be some difficulties (see

Re: ANN: Frescobaldi 3.2

[Mario Bolognani]

Dear Wilbert,

many thanks for updating Frescobaldi but an inexperienced user like me gets 
lost into the tricky steps fo obtaining a .dmg package to install as in version 
3.1.3.

Sorry for my ignorance (and perhaps for refusing to get into excessive details 
for obtaining a powerful editor like Frescobaldi for publishing music). You may 
object like the old Girolamo Frescobaldi “Non senza fadiga si giunge al fine” 
(Not without effort we reach the end), but I would avoid too much effort if 
possible…

That is strange: I haven't tried recently, but I seem to remember that

I plan to (try to) release a standalone application bundle soon.
However, distributing applications based on Qt and Python for Mac has
been increasingly difficult as Qt evolved: there are components (in
particular the web browser based ones, namely the documentation
browser and the SVG viewer) that have not been working since the
switch to Qt5 (or slightly later) despite my efforts.
I strongly recommend installing Frescobaldi with MacPorts (the .app
bundle provided there is just a lightweight launcher for the command
line version, so it does not suffer from the same issues).
Anyway, I'll do my best to provide the standalone .app bundle,
although limited in functionality, as soon as I can.

Best wishes.

I am already aware of them (they have been there at least since the
switch to Qt5), but since they are harmless and seem to originate from
Qt itself and not Frescobaldi specifically, I haven't invested time on
them (yet).

Re: ANN: Frescobaldi 3.2

If SimpleSynth works, keep it.

So, the one thing I didn’t address was "no Preferences item" – that’s in 
the Edit menu (usual place on Windows and Linux).


GUI frameworks usually move such items to the Mac places automatically, 
but maybe only if you create an .app bundle.

 As a Colombian, I approve, parce ;-).

Re: ANN: Frescobaldi 3.2

[Jiří Hon]

Hi Wilbert,

thank you very much for the new release of Frescobaldi and especially for the 
parce and quickly packages. Quickly will make my life much easier. Now I'm able 
to find and fix common notation errors in hundreds of scores more reliably, 
without the need for fragile regular expressions. Great work!

Have a nice day,
Jiri Hon

Dear Friends,

Lots of people contributed to this new release of Frescobaldi 3.2,
which actually has been in the works for quite a long time. Thanks!!
Recently it became urgent to fix various issues that arose in
Frescobaldi (and many programs that use Python-Qt bindings) with Python
3.10, where you no longer can give a floating point value to a function
that requires an integer. Python releases are so quick :-)

So hopefully this new release[1] fixes those annoyances. But it brings
also some nice new features; see for an overview[2]:

[1] https://github.com/frescobaldi/frescobaldi/releases/tag/v3.2
[2] https://github.com/frescobaldi/frescobaldi/blob/v3.2/ChangeLog

Note that there is a dependency change: the qpageview module, thus far
in frescobaldi_app/qpageview, is now, because of its generic nature, a
separate project at http://qpageview.org/ . This package needs to be
installed for Frescobaldi to work; it is used by the Music View and
other viewers inside Frescobaldi. Because of this, be sure to remove
Frescobaldi completely and then install qpageview and Frescobaldi,
otherwise it still finds the old qpageview inside the frescobaldi_app
folder.

In the meantime I worked on two new Python packages: parce[3] and
quickly[4], which together will supersede python-ly. In the future they
will help Frescobaldi with an even more thorough musical understanding
of the LilyPond source text, making (probably) more interesting music
manipulations possible.
