hide staff.BarLine fails
I am trying to produce a score with barlines between the staves. The manual provides this snip, but I get an "unknown escaped string: '\hide'" when I compile it. Thanks in advance for any help. global = { \hide Staff.BarLine s1 s % the final bar line is not interrupted \undo \hide Staff.BarLine \bar "|." } \new StaffGroup \relative c'' { << \new Staff { << \global { c1 c } >> } \new Staff { << \global { c c } >> } >> } -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/hide-staff-BarLine-fails-tp199864.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: hide staff.BarLine fails
Thank yu for the reply. I'm transcribing renaissance music, which was barless, but I want barlines to appear between the staves, i.e. mensurstriche layout. The snippet I quoted is at http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/working-with-ancient-music_002d_002dscenarios-and-solutions But it doesn't work. What I'd really like is a snippet that will produce the result shown on that page. -Arlin -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/hide-staff-BarLine-fails-tp199864p199866.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Multiple Movements -- made simple?
I want to print multiple movements one after the other, with titles. I gather Lilypond can do this with \score and multiple \header lines, but I don't know where to put the various things in the document. Can someone lay out a simple demo for me with maybe a bar or two of music in each of two movements? (Or even just a comment line saying where the music goes.) Thanks in advance. -Arlin Geyer ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

position of the little '8' in bass clef
The bass recorder reads bass clef, but it sounds an octave higher than written, so the clef needs a little '8' over it. In Lilypond this is \clef F^8 But the little '8' is printed way above the clef. Is there a way to lower the '8' to right above the clef? Thanks for any help. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/position-of-the-little-%278%27-in-bass-clef-tp31303344p31303344.html Sent from the Gnu - Lilypond - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Favorite Lilypond-Score Printer?
Laser vs. inkjet: Laser printers are more expensive to buy but less expensive to use. Laser printers make cleaner text, and inkjet printers do better graphics. (Lilypond symbols are treated as text.) Laser output is more water-resistant then inkjet. Laser toner cartridges are expensive but last a long time. Most inkjet printers print in color, while basic laser printers are black only. Large format laser printers (for tabloid-size paper) tend to be large and heavy. Some of the great workhorse laser printers of the past may be available used at reasonable prices, but beware shipping cost. Card stock is more prone to jamming than paper, particularly so in an older printer. The HP 5000 series are very good printers that have been around for a long time, so many are available used. Although I'm not certain of this, I believe the rollers are user-changeable. Worn-out rollers cause jams. If they have to be changed by a technician that gets expensive. If you're just printing for your personal use and not producing significant quantity, go inkjet, but if you're selling or generating lots of music, go laser. I hope that helps. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Favorite-Lilypond-Score-Printer--tp31257405p31303815.html Sent from the Gnu - Lilypond - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
