\enablePolymeter not working

[Jaime Oliver]

Hi all,

I am trying to compile this code from the lilypond documentation:
https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.23/Documentation/58/lily-fa68165d.ly

and I get the error:

 error: unknown escaped string: `\enablePolymeter'

\enablePolymeter

I have not been able to get \enablePolymeter to work in any of the examples.

Anyone knows what might be the issue? I am using lilypond 2.22.1 and
Frescobaldi 3.2 on ubuntu on Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS.

Any help appreciated.

All the best,

Jaime

Re: spacing of invisible rests

[Jaime Oliver]

Hi William,

Indeed what I am after is a s4 that takes some space, I am currently
solving it with

things like:

\once \hide Rest  r16 \once \hide Rest r16
\once \hide Rest  r16 \once \hide Rest r16

which will take some more space, but it is not ideal.

best,

Jaime

spacing of invisible rests

[Jaime Oliver]

Hi all,

I am trying to control the amount of space that s events take on each bar
so that I can make some bars longer. Is there a way I can specify this?
Also, some bars which have values like R1 are also really short, how can I
make those longer?

In other words, is there a way to make bars visually longer even if they
show empty space?

I have tried things like the one below but have not had good results
\layout{
   \context {
\Score
  proportionalNotationDuration = #(ly:make-moment 1/32)
  \override SpacingSpanner.base-shortest-duration =
#(ly:make-moment 1/32)
  \override SpacingSpanner.uniform-stretching = ##t

I am also attaching a screenshot so you can see the kinds of results I am
getting.

All the best,

Jaime

Yes it is. Please always give a minimal working example (see 
http://lilypond.org/tiny-examples.html) and include your LilyPond 
version. Without such an example I had to search for woodwind diagrams 
first because I didn’t know how to create them.

Re: naturalize pitches

Could you explain when this is the case? 

This is only a transposing instrument situation so it should be doable. I used 
the \transpose function and \naturalize form the documentation which ended up 
working fine. 

The problems I had were caused by conflicts with the arrow microtones I was 
using.

Re: Using Google to find documentation (was Re: naturalize pitches)

[Jaime Oliver]

well, some examples of the LSR  have "2.18 
or higher” so you’d technically miss those if you only search for 2.19 
examples. I guess there are also a certain number of core features that remain 
compatible through all versions, so there is a fair chance that these might 
work even if the version says 2.16.

Re: naturalize pitches

or you can search blindly because you forgot there is no backward compatibility 
and it is faster and because the best approaches to a problem aren’t always in 
the documentation page and then just remember to switch versions…

Re: PD to lillypond

[Jaime Oliver]

hello again,

 You might look at fomus http://common-lisp.net/project/fomus/.

thanks, i was aware of it; it is perfectly relevant.

 How do you plan to deal with durations?

Well, so far I am feeding integers produced by patches in pd. these integers
have a reference duration (like 1 = 16th, 2 = 8th, etc.). I am also allowing
floating point info like 1.33 1.33 1.33 to make tupletsso no quantization or
proportional notation is needed so far for this external (because input is
precise) , although others are on the works and I agree that proportional
duration would be really nice, I'll keep it in mind.

On Wed, Apr 23, 2008 at 8:34 AM, padovani [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:


 It would be nice to have have the choice to write the score with
 proportional notation (duration would be exactly translated in space between
 quarter-notes) or quantification of time (with a message that tells your
 external which possible subdivisions of the beat you allow).
 I am doing something like this quantification on Common Lisp, but it would
 be nice to have some lilypond code that creates proportional notation with
 note-spacing and a seconds grid above the score... (maybe with postscript
 markups above skips)..
 Althought quantification is more detailed, proportional notation is a very
 good tool when composing (even as a sketch or a composing plan)..

automatically place bars in a melody

[Jaime Oliver]

Hello all,
I haven't used Lilypond so much so this might come up as obvious.I need
Lilypond to place bars in a melody, splicing durations so that:
A) it will fill the bar to it's full capacity and
B) it will split durations that exceed the size of the bar, so that they
retain the part that completes the bar and tie it to the remainder in the
next bar.

So, i have tried:

\new Voice \with {
\remove Note_heads_engraver
\consists Completion_heads_engraver
}

but it doesn't seem to make the job correctly. Any suggestions are welcome.

below is the code for a simple melody in which the present solution doesn't
work.

best,

Jaime

Re: automatically place bars in a melody

[Jaime Oliver]

by the way, if the \time expression in the previous program is replaced with
\time 30/4 the durations are correct.
below the changed version,

Jaime

Re: automatically place bars in a melody

[Jaime Oliver]

Hi Graham,
thanks for your response,
 What doesn't work about it?

1. it doesn't fill the bar to it's full capacity, some 4/4 bars have only 3
quarter notes worth, some have more.
2. when splitting notes with ties, the remainder (in the next bar) is not
tied. that is:

with Completion_heads_engraver:

\time 4/4
c4 c4 c2.~ c4

should produce:  c4 c4 c2~ | c4~ c4 or even better: c4 c4 c2~ | c2

but it produces:

c4 c4 c2~ | c4 c4

If you find a bug, please file a
 minimal bug report.

I posted a bug report here:
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=606start=200
is this fine? should I also post one in
http://post.gmane.org/post.php?group=gmane.comp.gnu.lilypond.bugs?

best,

J
