some piano stuff
Hi, I'm currently typesetting a piece from Ravel in which the following model repeats several times. \include deutsch.ly \new PianoStaff { \context Staff = RH { \clef treble \key c \minor \relative c' { %\override PianoStaff.TupletNumber #'transparent = ##t \set tieWaitForNote = ##t \change Staff = LH \times 8/10 { g32 as h d \change Staff = RH g a h d g~ g,~} g g'2. } } \context Staff = LH { \key c \minor \relative c' { \clef treble { s4 h d as'2. } \\ { g1- } } } } 1. What's the problem with the tuplet number? I'm getting a programming error ( Spanner `Tie' is not fully contained in parent spanner `TieColumn' ) and the tuplet number (10 in this case) is way down bellow the lower staff. Is it because of the staff switching? 2. I would like to have the collision resolution shift the g whole note (LH, voice two currently) to the left and those quick notes going from left hand to the right to the right. I suppose it should have something to do with shiftOn and shiftOff but I haven't managed to do it... :-( 3. The curly brace at the start of the piano staff is shifted upwards - is it a bug or am I doing somthing wrong? Thank in advance for any help or suggestions. Jan Janovcik P.S. I'm using 2.8.7 on Windows XP ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Re: advanced \tag -ing
Hi, thank for the suggestion with \partcombine, it does indeed part of the job, it merges the noteheads, but it also changes the directions of the stems at the same time and that is undesirable. What I would need is something that would merge the noteheads and keep the stems down ( the result of merging is supposed to be voiceTwo ) Is this even possible, any ideas?

Re: advanced \tag -ing
Thanks a bunch for your suggestion, although not directly, it pointed me the right way to understanding how this whole thing really works. (what I had to realize was that in these situations I have to write out all the variants explicitly, like \tag #'one { f8[ f] } \tag #'two { f4 } \tag #'three \tag #'four s4 Before I would do just those first two without stating skips in those other two tags and it would cause a mess... ) Now I can at least produce almost correct output, there just one more thing I need to take care of. My actual code now looks like: \new Staff \new Voice = sopran { \voiceOne \keepWithTag #'one \Ksopran } \context Voice = alt { \voiceTwo \keepWithTag #'one \Kalt } \context Voice = alt { \voiceTwo \keepWithTag #'three \Kalt } In the soprano voice there are only two variants - no problem there. Now when it comes to alto I can now get lily to print correct notes on correct places, there is just one problem - for for notes that are common to both expressions it would not merge the noteheads - as if the other input was voiseFour. (see the attached picture) What I need is to have just one notehead there without the other to be seen. I tried to change the collision settings ( shiftOff etc. ) but with no success. Any ideas how to do this? Jan Janovcik __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

advanced \tag -ing
Hi, I have some question about the tag command. Here is what I would need and I'm not sure whether it is even possible (so far I haven't been succesfull trying to make it work): Let's say I have 4 different tags: one, two, three and four. The expressions tagged #'one and #'two are mutually exclusive, they won't ever appear together in the output. The same goes for three and four. But I do need to combine them (4 scores with tags: one and three, one and four, two and three, two and four) I tried something like \keepWithTag #'one \keepWithTag #'two ...music... but it doesn't seem to work Another question: Is it possible for the tagged expressions to be nested, to have a \tag inside of another tagged expression? Thanks in advance for all your advice and suggestions. Jan Janovcik __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

french score
Hi, I have 1 small problem: I've been typesetting a piece in a French score style (i.e. with hiding empty staves) - the way this option works for me is, that lily hides the staff but i get an empty vertical space in the system. Is this normal, i.e. do I have to set it manualy? Thanks in advance Jan Janovcik PS: This happenned with version 2.7.23 on windows. __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

bc vertical alignment
Hi, I've been typesetting a small cantata by Bach recently and the way figured bass now works (i.e. version 2.7.2x, windows) is really annoying. Manual says: When using continuation lines, common figures are always put in the same vertical position. but for me this seemed to happen even when not using continuation lines... How can I turn this off? I would much more like to do the vertical alignment manualy, but I cannot find out how to insert a vertical space in the figures. Any advice would be appreciated.. thanks in advance Jan Janovcik __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

figured bass questionsproblems
Dear list, I've been typesetting an early baroque continuo part and came across several problems. I'm using lily 2.7.12 windows native and I'm not wether some of these issues have or haven't been taken care of in later version which are not yet aviable to me... 1. (Possible bug...) Please take a look at the attached bit of my score. Accidentals are shifted horizontally a bit lower when typeset alone (sharp and flat with numbers 1 and two respectively), which is not that bad in itself, but when they are attached to numbers (6's in my example - numbers 2 and 3) this problem persists with 6#, while 6 with flat is OK. Is there a temporary workaround? I tried to override the padding prop. of BassFigure obj. but without succes... 2. Figured Bass feature as implemented was probably made with later figured bass in mind, but in earlier music (around 1650 in my case) sharps and flats occur more often alone. For these cases it would probably be better to use greater font size of the accidentals glyphs for these cases. As seen in the example, the sharp symbol is very in comparison with the 3 numeral (under number 1. for example). As with previous problem I wasn't succesfull at changing the properties of the individual figure. Any help would be appreciated. Jan Janovcik __ Yahoo!

problem with running lily
Hello, I'm a happy user of lilypond and as such I persuaded my friend to give it a try. I helped him with istallation (Win98). Everything seemed to be ok. Running lilypond for the first time without any arguments resulted in in a Welcome to LilyPond file as expected.

convert-ly
I came across a problem with convert-ly. I was trying to convert some 1.4 input files. Lilypond 1.4 obviously wasn't able to recongnize ties in the process of lyrics assignment, so you had to add one more _ in case of tied notes. Convert-ly is not able to address this issue, so the result is, one has to tediously search for such places and remove excess underscores. Is there any chance, this could be solved somehow in the future? Thanks Jan Janovcik __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
