from:"Eric"

Well then, sorry for bothering you all! I don't know how I confused myself
so badly, but I'm just glad to be out of that hole! I think I tried to put
the \pageBreak inside the \markup, which definitely does not work.

Re: pageBreak outside a score?

Oh! I think this is new behavior. I have struggled with this in previous
versions, but I guess it works now! Thank you!

Re: pageBreak outside a score?

Thanks, for the quick response! This doesn't seem to be exactly what I
want, though. I'm really just trying to make one score with some
performance notes at the end of one section, which also happens to be a
natural place for a page break. I don't want or need a whole header on the
next page. If there is a way to put a line or two of notes in the middle of
a score, that would work just as well, or better, for my needs.

pageBreak outside a score?

I find myself doing this more than once:

Enter a score.

Enter some notes as markup text.

Enter another score.

Between the notes and the second score, I want a page break. I don't see
how to do this. \pageBreak doesn't work outside of a \score, nor at the
very beginning of a \score. How can I force a page break in LilyPond after
the notes but before the second score?

Change in titling-init.ly and corresponding document

2022-11-18 Thread Eric Benson

I'm testing 2.23.81 with my scores that have been working in 2.22.2, and I
notice that the file titling-init.ly and the corresponding documentation
page notation/custom-titles-headers-and-footers have changed a great deal.
Is there any guidance available for how to change our scores from the old
interface to the new interface? I've been using a solution derived from the
example in

https://music.stackexchange.com/questions/75802/lilypond-v2-19-how-do-i-add-a-title-to-the-second-page-of-the-same-score

Lilypond 2.20 on Mac 10.15

Actually, both the latest version and 2.19.84 seem not to launch at all on

Re: 64 bit

2019-11-11 Thread Eric

On the assumption that it would have been pointed out if this link was
dangerous phished spam (apologies, Mr Sorensen!!) I have decided to install
this development version to replace my slashed-out 32-bit Lilyponds. Has
anyone else - or are others who use Mac Catalina waiting for Lilypond 2.20
to possibly include a 64-bit version (if even then) linked from the
Lilypond site? I can't seem to find much followup on this topic, and
nothing? in our mailing list (maybe I need to search better) that mentions
the below (rather unusually large, maybe because 64-bit?) unofficial
development update.

Re: Use jazz fonts in LilyPond?

2016-03-06 Thread Eric Albert

I've been working from Leigh Verlag's page on faking a Real Book page in 
LilyPond (thanks to Kieren for the link):

  http://leighverlag.blogspot.ca/2015/12/mimicking-real-book-look.html

That page answers many of my questions. I still have some font questions. 
Please forgive my ignorance of both LilyPond (this is my first project) and 
fonts in general (no experience other than changing fonts inside a Microsoft 
Word document).

Can I use any jazz character font set with LilyPond? Or is there a magic order 
that the symbols need to be in?

I like the look of the commercial product JazzFont (to view the complete 
character sets, click on "KEYSTROKES" in the rightmost blue box on the second 
line of boxes in the top center of the page, then click on "Jazzfont for 
Windows", which is down a bit on the right):

  www.jazzfont.com

I see that this font set has several subsets (pardon the wrong language), 
including one ("JazzCord") that appears to map single character codes to things 
such as "-7(b5)". Can this feature be uses with LilyPond? Or is it easier to 
use LilyPond with one character code mapping to a single character?

I guess the basic question is: Could I use this font set productively with 
LilyPond? Or should I stick to LilyJazz and LilyJazzText?

I realize my questions may be incoherent or incomprehensible. My apologies. I 
just installed by first font (Windows 7 Pro) five minutes ago...

Thanks!

Use jazz fonts in LilyPond?

2016-03-04 Thread Eric Albert

I'm interested in creating jazz lead sheets in LilyPond. Here's an example of 
what I'd like (scroll down for "On the Sunny Side of the Street"):

  
http://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/31184/what-are-the-common-fonts-used-in-music

How much of the look and feel of this ("(SWING)", title, authors, clef, time 
signature, notes, rests, chord names, etc.) can I reasonably expect to 
re-create in LilyPond?

If it *is* possible to recreate much or all of this, how? That is, do I need to 
buy/find a single font? A set of fonts? Do something else entirely?

One possibility I've found is JazzFont (to view the complete character sets, 
click on "KEYSTROKES" in the rightmost blue box on the second line of boxes in 
the top center of the page, then click on "Jazzfont for Windows", which is down 
a bit on the right):

  www.jazzfont.com

If I were to buy JazzFont for Windows, could I use it with LilyPond to help 
with my goal above? (I'm running Windows 7 Pro.) 

Answers to the above, or pointers to some completely different approach, or 
telling me it's not possible are all welcome.

Thanks!

Re: First measure too far to right

Thanks to all for your quick, helpful suggestions! My first measure is back 
where I want it, my fonts are warmer and fuzzier, and my minor 7 flat 5's are 
displaying as I prefer.

I can already see that this list is going to be one of the great parts of using 
LilyPond.

First measure too far to right

2016-03-03 Thread Eric Albert

Hi all,

I'm a new LilyPond user who's trying to re-create, as much as possible, a lead 
sheet from one of the Hal Leonard Real Books.

Below is what I've got so far. My current problem is that this code creates a 
.pdf with the first measure indented. What am I doing wrong?

I'd also love to know how to:

- have a B minor 7 flat 5 display as "Bm7b5" (rather than the default 
half-diminished symbol, an 'O' with a slash through it)
- substitute more warm and friendly fonts for both the chord names and the 
lyrics

I've Googled for LilyPond resources for jazz lead sheets, and none so far has 
completely addressed my issues.

Thanks!

Thank you very much, your suggestions helped the situation. I have two

 2013/7/9 Eric Pancer epan...@gmail.com:
 I'm working on the following file but having some issues where
 formatting tricks don't seem to be working. A couple of questions:

 1. How can I increase the veritical space between the systems ? The
 \paper configuration of markup-system-spacing #'basic-distance = #20
 doesn't seem to really help the situation.

 How about
 system-system-spacing #'basic-distance = #120 % adjust the value
 in \paper

This works fine. Another \layout vs. \paper issue I'm having is the following:

\layout {
\context {
\StaffGroup
\override StaffGrouper
#'staff-staff-spacing #'basic-distance = #12
}
}

This snippet works, but if I try and place it in \paper, as follows,
the staff-staff spacing does not work.

\paper {
default-staff-staff-spacing #'basic-distance = #12
}

system-system-spacing *does* work in \paper, so I'm confused as to why
default-staff-staff-spacing does not.

 \teeny is defined in /ly/property-init.ly
 teeny = \set fontSize = #-3
 Choose a lower value.

Works well, thanks. Is there a way to make this portable so changes to
/Applications/LilyPond.app//Contents/Resources/share/lilypond/current/ly
would not be required? If there's a way to avoid having to change
system files in future upgrades, I'd appreciate the suggestion.

And one last item: what is the tweak to pad more space between the
last system on a page and the copyright and/or tagline? I've gone
through a amount of changes but can't determine how to add more space
so the copyright does not look to be part of the lyrics *grin*

Thank you,

roman numeral chord notation

2013-01-22 Thread Eric Swenson

I'm trying to write up some text using latex (and lilypond-book) that
describes cadences and chords using notation such as IV4/3, where I
with the 4 to be typeset directly above the 3 and the 4/3 designation
to the right of the roman numeral chord designator.  How can I do this
in lilypond-book (lilypond)?

It looks like the 

  \new FiguredBass {
\figuremode {}
   }

is intended to be used along with music (e.g. under a staff).  I'm trying
to reference this in a latex document, where I'm using lilypond-book.

Can anyone give me any advice?  Should I simply not use lilypond for this, 
and resort to straight latex macros?  Any pointers to same?

Thanks.

Re: roman numeral chord notation

2013-01-22 Thread Eric Swenson

Thanks David.

This appears to work fine when adding markup to a staff (as in annotating
below the staff).  However, I'm trying to reference chords using this
notation in text, in a music theory discussion regarding chord resolution.
 Since this isn't within lilypond markup, I don't think I can use this.

I tried the obvious in my .lytex file:

\lilypondfile[quote,noindent]{rN.ly}

\begin[fragment,quote,staffsize=26,verbatim]{lilypond}
  \rN { V 4/3 }
\end{lilypond}

As well as preceeding the \rN with \markup, and both result in errors such
as:

lilypond-book --output=out --pdf bar.lytex

Any suggestions?  Or should I just try to figure out the
superscript-subscript tex macros to make this work?  Thanks.

 You can create the Roman numeral analysis with LilyPond using the \rN
 command defined here:

Is C6 considered 0?

Well, here I'm the one who is confused. I never heard C6 and the
others you mention below.

Apologies. C5 is known as middle C. C6 is the C in the third space
of treble clef. etc..

Thank you for the example. What I'm thinking is that I should just
define a whole new drum configuration since it would be easier to read
and write. I'd like to do the following: quinto (E6), conga (C6),
hitumba (A5), lotumba (F5) (with a generic tumba equal to
hitumba). I've patched
/Applications/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/share/lilypond/current/ly/drumpitch-init.ly
(see diff below),

I would never change the internal files
(apart from testings or to create a patch to be included in the source-code)
for two reasons:
1) The next upgrade will not contain it. You'll have to repeat it
2) Noone will be able to compile your scores until he/she made the
same changes.

And you'll will get little help on the list.

I understand, but I was also going to submit it as a patch to
development since only have two conga pitches is very antiquated at
this point. However, that's a different issue.

but the following snippet only puts 4 quarter notes
in the middle line of a percussion staff:

\new DrumStaff
\drummode {
quinto4 conga4 hitumba4 mutelotumba4
}

I didn't apply the diff so I can't say anything detailed to it.
But: the LilyPond-extension-language is scheme.
Why not use it as shown in my example?

I'm not sure how to apply what I'm trying to do using your example.
How do I make things like this work with your example:

(muteconga () stopped 1)

opentumba . ,(ly:make-pitch 0 -1 NATURAL))

Can I put that all in a new drum definition and have the corresponding
MIDI files generated properly?

Thank you, again.

 Stupid question: why would one create executable shims to something like
 DIR/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin/* in ~/bin and then add ~/bin to
 one's PATH when one can just add
 DIR/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin/ instead?  Is DIR expected to
 contain stuff that is bad for PATH?

Or, another way to approach the matter is there an easier way to
register .ly file extensions so that one can just do the following?

$ open -a LilyPond example.ly

I've already configured my machine to always open that file extension
with LilyPond.app, but if there's an easier way to do it, maybe it's
more idiomatic for Mac users.

4-Drum Conga Notation in LilyPond

While writing some conga exercises (for four drums) in Lilypond, I've
found I can get by using the following notes*:
 - bd (super tumba)
 - toml (tumba)
 - sn (conga)

However, I'm looking for a 4th pitch to notate a quinto (high drum)
and would like to use E6 (4th space in treble clef). Since there's no
standard notehead for that in
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond/Percussion-notes,
could someone please advise on how to change my file to redefine the
pitch with the correct notehead?

Also, is there an easy way to make each pitch with an x (slap)?

Thanks,

- Eric

* - I realize that LilyPond does have a built-in way to notate congas,
but I'm already working with a system that notates 4 drums in a
standard staff.

Okay, I understand that, but do not view LilyPond as a system utility.
Perhaps it is, since other items such as mysql, gpg-protect-tool, and
other third-party tools get put on other *BSD-derived systems, as

Snippet music box does not work in 2.16

2012-12-12 Thread Eric

Hi Lilypond helpers,

The following snippet :

http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Snippet?id=346

does not work any longer.

The error occurs In procedure car in expression (car pes):
/home/eric/musique/lilypond/test.ly:49:49: Wrong type (expecting pair): ()

that is, at line (in function defineTransform) :

(pnew (ly:music-property (car pes) 'pitch))


Can anyone find what is wrong ?

Thanks for any hint,
Eric

 Which is why we are talking /usr/local/libexec rather than /usr/libexec

Alright, it's your rodeo and I'm just a spectator. Just make sure you
let us all know to add it to our PATHs since most people, I'm
guessing, don't have /usr/local/libexec added.

Re: 4-Drum Conga Notation in LilyPond

On Wed, Dec 12, 2012 at 2:33 PM, Eric Pancer epan...@gmail.com wrote:
 While writing some conga exercises (for four drums) in Lilypond, I've
 found I can get by using the following notes*:
  - bd (super tumba)
  - toml (tumba)
  - sn (conga)

 However, I'm looking for a 4th pitch to notate a quinto (high drum)
 and would like to use E6 (4th space in treble clef). Since there's no
 standard notehead for that in
 http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond/Percussion-notes,
 could someone please advise on how to change my file to redefine the
 pitch with the correct notehead?

I've got this working using the following definition:

#(define mydrums '(
(bassdrum  default   #f  -3)
(snaredefault   #f0)
(hihat default #f  1)
(lowtom default   #f 3)))

Of course I don't exactly understand what the #f is, but do get the
numerical values are positions in the staff. A bit of explanation
could help me.

 Also, is there an easy way to make each pitch with an x (slap)?

I still don't understand how to do this. ^

 Linux is a strictly speaking a kernel, like Mac OS X is running the kernel 
 Mach, often combined with what is called GNU OS. Mac OS X derives originally 
 from FreeBSD.

Yes I know. 

 
 As for the standard, it is a development of BSD old traditions. So a similar 
 origin of OSs make them putting stuff in similar places, but with some 
 differences.
 

Right. 

 As for the POSIX/UNIX standards, they have no so such requirements, so in 
 general, there can be quite some variation.

Right. What's the point here?

 Immediately after downloading and expanding 2.15.31 in the version
 appropriate for my Macintosh (10.7.3 Intel Duo) I got a crash reflected in
 my console with these message:

Help, simple music function not compiling

2011-01-29 Thread Eric Dedieu

Hi lilypond helpers,

Here is a small program that does not compile:

---
\version 2.12.3

%% the function that will fail
tempoMarkEqual =
#(define-music-function (parser location before after)
  (string? string?)
  #{
  \mark \markup \tiny { \note $before #1 = \note $after #1 }
  #} )

%% example begins here
{
  \time 2/4
  re'2
  |
  %% this works well
  \mark \markup \tiny {\note #8 #1 = \note #8 #1 }
  re'2
  |
  %% this is an attempt to get the same result with a function
  \tempoMarkEqual #8 #8
  re'2
}
--

The first \mark command works well, but the function fails with:

string:2:30: Error : syntax error, unexpected STRING_IDENTIFIER,
expecting SCM_IDENTIFIER or SCM_TOKEN
  \mark \markup \tiny { \note
  \lilyvartmpb #1 = \note \lilyvartmpc #1 }

What did I miss ?

horizontal space after rehearsal mark (or bar line)

2010-02-07 Thread Per Eric Rosén


Hi everyone!

What ways are there to add horizontal space after a rehearsal mark?

In detail: How to shift notes and their textscripts to the right, to 
get the rehearsal mark and text-script besides each other instead of the

(i my opinion somewhat ugly) vertical stacking?

Or, if that is hard: How to increase the x-padding of a double bar?

I the example below, the M2 get spaced above the Tutti. Some extra 
space after the double bar would avoid stacking.


Using lilypond 2.12.2 (lilypond.org installer) on Debian 5.0.4 AMD64.

 test.ly 
\version 2.12.2
\score {
  \relative c' {
\clef G
\time 4/4
c'1 d  \bar || \mark \markup{\box M2} e( \f ^\markup{Tutti} f)
  }
}
-

I have tried extra-spacing-width and looking for other ways, but nothing 
found in the archives by the search words I could come up with at least ...


Thanks in advance!

Re: Lilypond on iPhone

 Hi all,

 I’m wondering if anyone has built or tried to build the Lilypond library for 
 the iPhone platform, to render engraved music on an iPhone-OS-powered device? 
  I’m considering this for an upcoming project, and wanted to ask a few 
 questions before diving in to trying it myself.  Here goes:

 1) How do you rate my chances of getting Lilypond to compile for the 
 ARM-based iPhone OS, especially given the number of libraries it depends on?

 2) Would there be any licensing issues in using Lilypond (and dependent 
 libraries) in a paid app on a closed platform such as the iPhone?

 3) What’s the likely performance of rendering .ly files on a lower-powered 
 (and lower-memory) device such as an iPhone or iPod Touch? Is it likely to 
 take seconds, minutes or hours?  How about on an iPad?  (I’m looking for 
 rough guesses here, before I go through the pain of attempting compilation.)

 4) If performance is likely to be a no-go, what are my best alternative? 
 Server-side PDF generation for delivery to a device?

 Any thoughts or ideas much appreciated.  I’ve a fair bit of experience in Mac 
 open-source development (I wrote much of the audio code for Handbrake), but 
 I’m new to Lilypond, so would be starting from scratch in compiling it.

 Thanks!

 Dave.



I'm working on this idea for the upcoming iPad. I would love to be
able to sit with my instrument and notate with the iPad on a stand or
table. The first approach I'm going to try is with a RESTful web
service backend app running on my desk computer. If I don't get the
performance I want with that, I'll create a Cocoa server app with
direct sockets.

This seems like a very doable project and I'm looking forward to
giving it a try. Waiting for my iPad!

 duration variable and do something based on the value. What would an
 if for that look like?

 First, you want to extract the music from the stream event, I think

 (ly:event-property event 'Music)  (but I'm not sure about this step)

 Once you have the music, then you get the elements of the music:

 (ly:music-property music 'elements)

 Now, elements is a list of music elements, so you'll want to get the
 duration from the first element of elements:

 (ly:music-property (car elements) 'duration)


 As you can probably tell, I'm also learning scheme. I've been looking
 for a reason to learn scheme and the new capability of writing scheme
 engravers has hooked me!

 Looks like you're doing a good job of it!



 Thanks for the help in advance, this is getting exciting.


 I think so!

I'm that Eric and I am still working on doing StaffTab in Lilypond. I
have a set of music functions that work for me just fine. However, as
you all know, getting them to the point where others could use them
easily is another matter. I also don't have everything working. The
string indicators are small lines or rectangles that show what string
the note is played on. For an instrument with 12 strings this is quite
important. However, I can't make a foolproof mechanism for this, yet.
I need to learn Scheme and write some fairly smart functions before
this will be the way I want it to be. For now I do everything except
the string indicators in lilypond and then add those in a graphics
program. Since my scores are not large, this works for me.

Should I put up a page with my work-in-progress? Would this be of
interest to anyone?

Variable substitution in postscript?

2009-05-25 Thread Eric Knapp

Hi, all.

I'm attempting to create some music functions that have some
postscript commands in them. Is there a way to pass an argument from
the Scheme music function into the embedded postscript? Here's a
simplified example that makes a hollow square notehead:

The function:

sample =
#(define-music-function (parser location thickness note )
  (number? ly:music?)
#{
  \once \override NoteHead  #'stencil = #ly:text-interface::print
  \once \override NoteHead #'text = \markup {
\postscript #
  -1.65 0 translate
  0.25 setlinewidth
  0.75 -0.4 0.8 0.8 rectstroke
  }
 $note
#})

Usage:

\sample #0.25 bf2

What I want to do is have the value of the thickness variable
replace the 0.25 in the postscript. I've tried everything that I can
think of and have also looked in some postscript documentation. Is
there a way to do this? It would allow me to solve a lot of things I
want to do with Lilypond.

I'm not sure if I should post questions like this here or to the devel
forum. I did not cross-post so let me know if I should repost there.

decreasing spacing between staves

2009-02-08 Thread Eric Flesher

Greetings,

I've looked high and low for the solution to this (rather basic, IMO) problem,
and seem to be coming up empty-handed:

I have a score that requires a single-line tablature staff above the main staff,
which contains pitches. I need to find a way to decrease the space between the
tablature staff and the main one such that it generally is not more than 2
spaces (i.e. staff spaces) above the main staff, but yet will move higher if
needed to avoid collisions with leger lines, articulations, etc. Noteheads
between these two staves will typically be beamed together (i.e. cross-staff
beaming).

Adjusting the minimum-Y-extent of VerticalAxisGroup does not seem to have the
desired effect (staves are too far apart); adjusting offsets in 
NonMusicalPaperColumn is possible, but only doable at the very last stage, i.e.
once all other input is done. 

So, is there an easy (and hopefully intuitive) way to decrease space between two
staves (even if the score were to contain more than 2 staves) globally, without
having to set system breaks, such that the layout will default to a narrower
vertical spacing for those staves?

Thanks,
EF

 You might try the tweaks covered in Learning Manual 4.5.3 Real Music

Right, but this is precisely the point: I'll be making dozens of such
adjustments, when IMO such collisions should be avoidable by default, if not by
design. This is why I'm wondering if there isn't a way to globally ensure the
positioning of ties _between_ (as opposed to above) noteheads; there would
likely then be the problem of the left ends of ties colliding (or at least
interfering) with augmentation dots, but there are likely to be fewer such
instances.

tenuto/tie collision

2009-01-26 Thread Eric Flesher


Greetings,

I'm sure this has been addressed elsewhere, although my search of the  
forum turns up negative: It seems that in some instances the program  
will default to a tie placement such that it is bound to collide with  
certain articulations, such as tenuto marks. It appears as if ties  
are lowered for notes on spaces (e.g. the B5), yet they are higher  
for notes on lines (the 5). I would imagine this is to avoid tie  
endpoints on lines when such notes appear within the staff, yet one  
ends up with two different tie appearances, i.e. ties wholly between  
noteheads (the first measure) and ties above and just slightly off- 
centered from noteheads (the second measure). The previous would  
correspond, for instance, to Vinci's recommendations for tie  
endpoints (see _Die Notenschrift_), whereas the latter corresponds to  
Gardner Read.



Can one _easily_ override the problem in the latter measure, without  
having to tweak tie end-points or offsets? (I have done both in the  
past.) The ideal would be to create a global behavior in which ties  
appear either a) wholly between noteheads (this would require  
offsetting the left tie end-point to the right of augmentation dots),  
as per Vinci, or b) to raise ties so that they appear above tenuto  
marks. This latter occurs above the A5 with the augmentation dot, and  
I'm not sure why only it has the raised tie, although I suppose it  
has something to do with the dot itself.


Thanks,

 How do you do that in Sibelius? Perhaps mirroring the same approach
 would be the best.

With Sibelius, one can easily start and stop a staff mid-system (or measure) by
changing that staff to an invisible one. Thus, the passage was engraved with
two staves: a normal one for pitched notes, and a second, single line staff
above for non-pitched notes. Instead of placing pitches on that line, I engraved
pitches one line higher (this line does not show, of course) and used
invisible noteheads; thus the extended stem. Circular noteheads were placed
manually as symbols (e.g. articulations). 

My approach with Lilypond thus far has been similar, but I'm having difficulty
suppressing the single-line staff mid-measure or -system: if I change the number
of staff lines to zero, I get a whole host of warnings. Also, placing graphical
symbols over blank stems to create circular noteheads is problematic, as one
then triggers collision avoidance  (which, as you say, one should be able to
turn off). 

If I can find a way to create the notehead _and_ shift its position down and to
the left on the stem (assuming down stems), then I'm 80% there.

Thanks!

problem with engraving breath tones

2009-01-22 Thread Eric Flesher

I have a score that involves numerous passages of wind instruments making pure
breath (i.e. non-pitched) sounds; as per Kurt Stone, these should be indicated
on a single tablature line above the staff with circular noteheads. These
noteheads are unusual in that they are centered on the stem (i.e. the stem goes
through the center of the circle), with the stem protruding about a half a space
above/below the notehead. A simple example can be found here:

http://www.ericflesher.com/scores/example/air.jpg

What I'm looking for is a solution that will allow me to introduce and remove
this tablature staff at will, including in the middle of the bar; I would
further like to be able to import a pre-existing symbol for this notehead, as it
does not appear that the Feta font has such a symbol. Any ideas? 

Many thanks in advance.
EF

P.S. I have tried the following work-arounds, neither are terribly good:

1. Creating a 6-line staff, with the top line moved up 2 spaces to simulate a
separate tablature line. Advantage: ease of getting the breath pitches onto the
staff. Disadvantage: Solution does not work if leger-line pitches occur while
this 6-line staff is in effect.

2. Creating a separate, 1-line staff for the tablature pitches. Advantage: Can
easily accommodate leger-line pitches from (1) above, without placing these
above the tablature staff. Disadvantage: Space between staves must be adjusted;
may encounter problems in introducing/hiding staff mid-measure and/or 
mid-system.

3. Creating a line with \draw-line under \markup for the tablature staff.
Advantage: None I can see so far. Disadvantages: The line will move to avoid
collisions, thus making it difficult (if not impossible) to place noteheads on
the line. Insufficient documentation (IMO) on the destination arguments taken by
\draw-line, thus making the placement of such line a lengthy trial-and-error
process.

Thanks - this works very well. However, I have had another issue arise from
implementing this technique:

Longer dynamic strings (e.g. p delicato, crescendo, etc.) that are engraved
as dynamic scripts in this fashion end up getting centered, as a text string,
horizontally under the notehead. This necessitates offsetting them somehow; my
immediate workaround is to apply
\once \override DynamicText #'extra-offset = #'( x . y )
to shift the dynamic string to the appropriate position.

With this in mind, however, is there a means of doing the following:

a) Defining a dynamic text string that will left-align to the notehead? This is
generally what is desired for markings such as cresc. dim., plus other
expressive markings (dolce, etc.) that stand alone, i.e. without a dynamic
marking such as p, f, etc.

b) Defining a dynamic text string that centers the dynamic mark (p, f, etc.)
under the notehead as per usual, while allowing any modifiers in the string
(e.g. dim., dolce, etc.) to follow to the right?

I know that this latter, in particular, is a rather sophisticated request, but
it would be worth being able to automate such issues that are likely to occur
frequently.

duplets

2008-08-07 Thread Eric Flesher


Greetings,

Is it possible to suppress/alter the tuplet number in the case of the  
duplet shown below? (m. 91, bass staff) According to Stone, this  
should be engraved as a duplet with the numeral 2 in the bracket.  
This could of course be represented instead by dotted eighths, but  
these then get rather cumbersome given the quadruplet that follows on  
the next beat.


Replacing the duplet's 4 with a fraction (4:3) is possible, but  
rather counterintuitive to read.

markup dynamics wrong size

2008-08-05 Thread Eric Flesher


Wondering if anyone has experienced the following problem:

When creating new centered dynamics in a piano staff in ver. 2.11.55  
(and several earlier versions) using \markup, three things happen:


1. the markup text created is significantly larger than the normal  
dynamic size

2. the text does not align with other dynamic markings
3. the presence of the markup text forces additional space between  
the staves


inline: dynamics.JPEG


The dynamic marking concerned is contained in a variable thus:
pocoF = \markup  { \italic poco \dynamic f }


and is deployed locally as follows:
\times 4/5 { s16 s\mp s s-\pocoF s\ } \times 4/5 { s8\! s\mp s16 } s4

(I would include more code, but the file is extremely long.)

Any idea what might be wrong here, and how this could be fixed?

Re: Changing notes based on fingerings

2008-07-17 Thread Eric Knapp

Hello, Nicolas.

On Thu, Jul 17, 2008 at 8:12 AM, Nicolas Sceaux [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 Do you mean a FingeringEvent music expression, or a Fingering grob?
 Once you have grobs, it's too late for modifying music expressions.
 You can navigate down music expressions, but not up. But see below.

I think I would like the music expression. I didn't know that once I
had a grob it was too late.

 I'm not exactly sure what you're trying to do, but here is my guess.

 Based on an input like: a''2-2
 you want to produce something like: [fill in the blank]

I would like to start with: a''2-2
And produce: a''2 with customized NoteHeads and Stems based on the
-2 fingering. I want to produce a note with a custom notehead and
suppress the fingering numbers.

The notation I'm trying to code indicates fingerings with notehead
shapes, not fingering numbers or letters. But, I would like users to
still be able to indicate fingerings with the normal lilypond notation
like a-2.

 The process is the following:

  1. \displayMusic a''2-2
 as you have done, to be able to recognize how to get the interesting
 elements

  2. \displayMusic [fill in the blank]
 to see how to programmatically build the result

  3. write a basic music function that transforms the input to the desired
 result.

 If what you're working on is complex, at first implement elementary
 transformations. Then, progresseivey merge them in single music function
 that does what you aim at.

I am using this approach with good results. I know the music
expression I want to create. I just need to be able to catch music
expressions so that I can get the fingering number that the user
entered. Then I can create the correct note based on the fingering.

With code like this:

  \override  Fingering #'stencil = #custom-fingerings  %-- a function

I can intercept any music expression that has a fingering. But, I
receive the Fingering grob in the function. How do I intercept all
music expressions before they are grobs so that I can make them
myself? If this is documented then I'm just missing it and would love
to be enlightened.

Changing notes based on fingerings

2008-07-16 Thread Eric Knapp

The next issue in trying to extend Lilypond for my instrument is that
I want to change things in the Note based on the text in the
Fingering. Here's an example, this displayMusic call results in the
make-music call that is after it. I have code working that gives me
the 2 from the FingeringEvent that I got from the very helpful Neil
Puttock. Now I need to be able to retrieve the NoteEvent that is in
the same list.

\displayMusic {a''2-2}

(make-music
  'SequentialMusic
  'elements
  (list (make-music
  'EventChord
  'elements
  (list (make-music
  'NoteEvent  -- I want to make changes here.
  'duration
  (ly:make-duration 1 0 1 1)
  'pitch
  (ly:make-pitch 1 5 0))
(make-music
  'FingeringEvent
  'digit
  2)  Based on this.


If I'm in a function that was delivered a Fingering grob, can I
navigate up to the containing list and then up to the SequentialMusic
object? Or is this not the direction that will give me a solution? The
other idea I have about this is to override the creation of all music
notes and if there is a Fingering object then rewrite the entire
make-music call. I don't know how to do that, either.

Thanks,

Determining Fingering digit?

2008-07-15 Thread Eric Knapp

Hi, all.

This is a working example that I got from the LSR. It is used with
\applyOutput:


#(define (mc-squared grob grob-origin context)
(let*
  (
   (ifs (ly:grob-interfaces grob))
   (sp (ly:grob-property grob 'staff-position))
  )

 (ly:grob-set-property! grob 'stencil ly:text-interface::print)
 (ly:grob-set-property! grob 'font-family 'roman)
 (ly:grob-set-property! grob 'text
   (make-raise-markup -0.5
 (case sp
   ((-5) (make-simple-markup m))
   ((-3) (make-simple-markup c ))
   ((-2) (make-smaller-markup (make-bold-markup 2)))
   (else (make-simple-markup bla))
 
)))


In this line:

(sp (ly:grob-property grob 'staff-position))

The staff position of the note is assigned to the variable sp. How
could I get the fingering digit of the note? For example:

  c''-3

I want to programmatically get the 3 as a number or text.

Also, the \applyOutput command only seems to run once. I was expecting
to apply to all occurrences in the Voice when used like this:

\context Voice \relative c' {

\applyOutput #'Voice #mc-squared
{
  d f g b2

  d f g b
  d f g b
  d f g b

  c e g1 |
  c2-1 c'-2 |
  b4 \displayMusic {g8} a b4-3 c |
  c,2 a'-4 |
  g1 |
  }
}

ties across voices -- DIFFICULT!!!

2008-07-15 Thread Eric Flesher

I am having an extremely difficult time finding an acceptable coding solution
for a fairly straightforward (though relatively complex) notational problem:

I have several measures of piano music (code appended below) in which an initial
chord is struck, with voices released at different times. This _visually_
requires no more than 2 voices to be present during any given beat. Most of my
coding attempts, however, require 3 or more voices, often using tweaks to hide
pitches and shifting note columns to rectify the default displacement of
subsidiary voices. I have tried the documented moving of the Tie_engraver to the
staff (vs. voice) level, but end up with simultaneous tie events that end up
junking a required tie. 

Does anyone have any practical advice for solving this problems? The necessity
of creating invisible noteheads in 3 or more parts seems cumbersome and carries
with it a whole host of horizontal voice-offset (shift) problems. I have also
tried manipulating the control points on individual ties (documented elsewhere
on this forum) but cannot find any reference as to how this might be done with
tie columns.

Incidentally, the _simplest_ solution would appear to me to be somehow engraving
ties as individual graphic events, i.e. neither attached to, nor dependent upon
noteheads in any particular voice. (Is this possible?)

I will try to post another message with the code attached, but so far the server
fails to accept such, claiming I'm top-posting.

Many thanks,
EF

where each note in the chord has a different custom notehead. Here's
an example.

This works and each note has its own custom notehead.
{
  \noteheadOne c
  \noteheadTwo d
}

This is a syntax error:
{
   \noteheadOne c \noteheadTwo d 2
}


This is not a syntax error but each note has noteheadTwo
{
   \noteheadOne c2 \noteheadTwo e2
}

Thanks for the help.

-Eric

Special Markup Within Staff?

2008-07-09 Thread Eric Knapp

Hello,

I'm trying to use lilypond to do the full notation of my instrument,
the Chapman Stick. The one feature that I'm really struggling with are
String Markers. The Chapman Stick has lots of strings, 8, 10, or 12,
and its notation uses special markers on the staff lines to indicate
strings. This is essentially the combination of Staff notation and Tab
notation and it is called StaffTab. I have attached a small image that
shows the markers. The string markers are the small rectangles above
or below the notes. The marker doesn't have to be a rectangle, it
could be a short thick line, too.

I have tried to implement them with a new Voice with custom noteheads
and no stems. This runs into some collision issues with eighth and
sixteenth and the barlines. I have spent a few days working on custom
noteheads and these string markers. I just can't find a way to add
these to a staff. Does anyone have any ideas? Was I on the right track
treating them as notes in a voice?

Many thanks to the list for all your help.

-Eric

Re: Custom noteheads and chords

2008-07-09 Thread Eric Knapp

Music functions? Ah, ha! That may be the answer. I'm embarrassed to
say it but I actually teach computer programming at a college and I
didn't know about music functions. I think I will be using them a lot
now that I have read about them. I can't believe that I haven't
stumbled on them before. I will try a bunch of experiments and post my
progress.

 \tweak may be the command you need.  Have a look at section 4.1.4 Tweaking
 methods in the Learning Manual for release 2.11 to see why this is needed
 and how to use it.  The explanation there applies just as well to release
 2.10.  However, I believe it is not possible to use \tweak in a variable, so
 this might not be quite the answer you want.

 You can, however, use \tweak in a music function, can't you?

Re: defining custom note heads

Hello,

I'm trying to get the second option below to work. This is one where
you use markup commands to create the notehead. I can't get the syntax
right, could you also provide an example of that?

Thanks,

 Hello Brian,

 There are two things you need to do to create arbitrary noteheads from
 within lilypond:
 1. change the NoteHead stencil to the text interface:
 \once \override NoteHead  #'stencil = #ly:text-interface::print
 2. define the text attribute of the NoteHead. you can put any markup
 command you want. The easiest thing to do is to simply call a
 musicglyph, as in the example below. With musicglyph you can use any
 of the feta font glyphs:
 http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.11/Documentation/user/lilypond/The-Feta-font#The-Feta-font

 But you can also draw lines, circles, etc. basically anything you can
 do in a markup. See

Re: defining custom note heads

I have it working when you define glyphs, like this:

headCircle = {\once \override NoteHead #'stencil = #ly:text-interface::print
\once \override NoteHead #'text = #(markup #:musicglyph
scripts.flageolet ) }

What I can't get to work is what Victor mentioned but didn't give and
example for. Here's what he said,

But you can also draw lines, circles, etc. basically anything you can
do in a markup. See
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.11/Documentation/user/lilypond/Text-markup-commands#Text-markup-commands;

I can't figure out the exact syntax for when you use markup and not a
glyph. I would love an example like the one above with markup.

Thanks,

They work in tandem, not independantly, first, you change the NoteHead
stencil to the text interface, (see previous code), then you define the
musicglyph that you want to use as a notehead.

 Notice how halign and lower are used to move things around.

Re: defining custom note heads

I have one more piece of the puzzle to solve. How do you translate
this markup command into scheme?

  \draw-line #'(4 . 4)

Some of the markup commands call for pairs of numbers. I can't find
any docs for how the pairs are coded in scheme.

Thanks,

-Eric
